User talk:Smspersonal

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
 * Welcome!
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Manual of Style


 * Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring or sock puppetry.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
 * Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Sacknoff Prize for Space History
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Sacknoff Prize for Space History, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.historyoftechnology.org/news/_2014_sacknoff_prize_for_space_history_winner_announced_.html.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) CorenSearchBot (talk) 21:13, 21 November 2014 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Sacknoff Prize for Space History
Hello, Smspersonal. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Sacknoff Prize for Space History, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:


 * 1) edit the page
 * 2) remove the text that looks like this:
 * 3) save the page

Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. AMLNet49-Talk-Cont 21:17, 21 November 2014 (UTC)

Sacknoff Prize for Space History deleted

 * 1)  You are not to remove the copyright problem tag.
 * 2)  The article was clearly copied from several pages at http://www.historyoftechnology.org.  On the website, at the bottom of each web page, it states "Copyright   © 2014 Society for the History of Technology".  You personally cannot state there is no longer an copyright on the works.  It must come from Society for the History of Technology.  They own the copyright.
 * 3)  It is doubtful that the prize would qualify for an article until Wikipedia guidelines.  There has to be independent, reliable references that talk about the prize.  Blogs, Facebook or other social media do not count as reliable.  Anything from Society for the History of Technology or any affiliate of Quest do not count as independent.

Hello, Smspersonal. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "Sacknoff Prize".
