Speedy deletion nomination of Bonnie Brae House


A tag has been placed on Bonnie Brae House 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://azusastreet.org/about.htm. 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. M.

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from one or more pages into another page. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. M. Caecilius (talk) 17:19, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

Re: Contested deletion
First of all, you need to verify the grant of permission with the Wikipedia team by following the procedure of WP:OTRS. Secondly, I would not advise doing so because the copyrighted passages appear to be exclusively promotional and would require a fundamental rewrite to become encyclopaedic. Thirdly, there is still the LA Times article you used that requires permission. Fourthly, even if all of this is sorted out, the article would still be likely to be merged into Azusa Street Revival, so it is better to simply improve that article directly. Fifthly, if you do work with the organization as you noted, then this is a conflict of interest problem you need to be aware of. Best regards, M. Caecilius (talk) 17:31, 12 May 2014 (UTC)
