Frandsen, copyright, and writing your first article
Tashatrolux, a few suggestions that might help you better contribute to Wikipedia:


 * 1) Yes, it is blatant copyright infringement, using Wikipedia's standard of copyright violations (which I think you should read).
 * 2) You've been getting messages over on your talk page giving you advice on how to deal with this situation. You should read those, and also look at donating copyrighted materials. Be sure to tell Ms. Auricombe that she'll have to give up rights to what she's written if she wants it here. But for right now, there's a copyright at http://www.peintre-emile-frandsen.com/Biographie.html, which means it can't be on WP until she tells WP otherwise.
 * 3) This article (if it ever becomes an article) is not a template, which is what you keep creating. If you want a page on the artist, it should be at Emile Théodore Frandsen de Schomberg.
 * 4) You initially created this discussion at Emile Théodore Frandsen de Schomberg, which is a template page. I moved it here, which is the discussion page for that template.
 * 5) Another article I recommend you read is your first article. It's got lots of good advice and suggestions.

In short, it's a good subject (imo) for an article; you've just been going about it in a frustrating way. But I think that if you read the above-linked articles, you'll see how to get it all straightened out.

Speedy deletion of Gaston Rebry (painter)
A tag has been placed on Gaston Rebry (painter) 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 include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." 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. gnfnrf (talk) 15:07, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
