Speedy deletion nomination of First Presbyterian Church (Mount Pleasant, Michigan)


A tag has been placed on First Presbyterian Church (Mount Pleasant, Michigan) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Tchaliburton (talk) 01:43, 20 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Sg424, not every church is automatically notable enough for inclusion in Wikipedia. I'm sure, who is an administrator with extensive content knowledge, will be more than happy to explain, on this talk page, why the article was deleted, and how such an article on such a church could be rewritten so that it gets to stay. Thanks for your contributions, and don't be discouraged. Drmies (talk) 13:59, 20 June 2014 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Sg424. All or some of your addition(s) to Business Professionals of America has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.


 * You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
 * Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
 * Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Copyrights. You may also want to review Copy-paste.
 * If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Donating copyrighted materials.
 * In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
 * Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 04:15, 21 July 2016 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Amanda steele


The article Amanda steele has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no reliable references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp/dated tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. 331dot (talk) 21:14, 5 September 2016 (UTC)

 * Actually, there are existing concerns in this article; 1 is the highly noticeable promotion in both the information and sources, all 3 sources are only announcements, and none of it satisfies our 2 main policies WP:What Wikipedia is not and WP:Deletion policy and it puts this article in jeopardy because of it. Also, since this is as by usual policy, you are obligated to disclose your connection if you're by any chance connected to them. If not, then please understand that we commonly see this and presume it may be the company mistakenly using us a webhost. The one thing that would help this article is by removing those sources and instead replacing with the best major independent news, as the article cannot be guaranteed to stay with those currently given sources.
