Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Photo_magician_Jason_Andrews_holding_playing_cards.jpg. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Administrators can block users from editing if they repeatedly vandalize. Thank you. Please do not remove copyright violations tags from articles. red dog six  (talk) 16:33, 4 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Reply - I have no idea what you mean by un-constructive edits and vandalism. That photo was uploaded with the express permission of the photographer. The edit to remove the deletion message was removed by myself and not by the original uploader as per Wikipedia guidelines. Why are you bullying myself and other editors of this article? I am trying to add a valid and notable set of information to Wikipedia and you keep flagging and marking things for deletion. Please stop, reddogsix, I am sure there are thousands of actual garbage articles out there that deserve to be flagged and deleted but this one is valid. Teddyfoyle (talk) 19:34, 4 January 2014 (UTC)
 * First of all, no one is bullying you. I probably should have just left a message on your talk page explaining the reason for the reinstatement of the tag instead of adding a vandalism tag - sorry.  The tag was reinstated because it is a Wikipedia copyright violation to use something that copyrighted in Wikipedia - unfortunately just saying you have permission is not enough.  There are specific ways for owners of copyrighted material to donate that material to Wikipedia.  This process was not followed by the owner.  Please have the owner of the follow the process and the picture can stay.  Thanks...  red dog six  (talk) 22:38, 4 January 2014 (UTC)
 * BTW - I have once again tagged the image as copyright violation. Again, before you remove the tag, please read WP:DCM and have the owner follow the instructions to allow its use.  Thanks...  red dog six  (talk) 22:45, 4 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Reply - I have contacted the copyright holder and he is sending email to wikipedia along with uploading the image from an account he will create for himself. Teddyfoyle (talk) 23:40, 4 January 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Cashetta


A tag has been placed on Cashetta requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://cashetta.com/. 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — 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 or image 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 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.

January 2014
Hello Teddyfoyle, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your addition to Cashetta 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 a cited source. 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 without attribution. If you want to copy 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. Material was copied directly from http://cashetta.com/.
