Speedy deletion of Upper Arlington Progressive Action
A tag has been placed on Upper Arlington Progressive Action requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Upper Arlington Progressive Action
I've restored the article and moved it to your user space for the time being: User:Sdybiec/Upper Arlington Progressive Action. Although the copyright issue no longer applies because the text has been released under GFDL, the article is still very promotional in tone. It's not usually a good idea to copy directly from the organization's web page, because the goal of the web page (to promote the organization) is not always the same as the goal of a Wikipedia article (to provide neutral information about the subject).

A Wikipedia article should written objectively and make clear how the subject meets Wikipedia's notability standards. Some information can be found at the page Your First Article, as well as Notability for Organizations and Reliable Sources. You can also solicit others' opinions on the article at The Drawing Board.

Once the article is ready to return to the main article space, you will just need to move it back.

I hope this information is helpful. ... disco spinster   talk  22:20, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
