Speedy deletion nomination of Internet Exchange Point of Nigeria


A tag has been placed on Internet Exchange Point of Nigeria 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 clear 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

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 verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website 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 that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

 * The fact that you work for the company does not change the fact the the information was copied, word for word, from the company's website. This is a direct copyright violation, and we could only use the info if it were donated to Wikipedia or otherwise licensed for free re-use (CC-BY-SA).  But before you go through all of that effort, you should know that even if you re-wrote it to fix the copyright problems, the article would still almost certainly be deleted unless you can show why the company is WP:CORP}notable.  That is, not every company can have an article on Wikipedia (in fact, the vast majority cannot)--only those companies which have been discussed in detail in multiple, independent, reliable sources can be the subject of Wikipedia articles.  If IEPN has been the subject of such coverage, then let me know and I can show you how to make a draft page in your userspace to begin working on a clean, non-copyright violating version of the article that will meet our requirements.  I'll be glad to help, but an article will only be possible if IEPN meets those requirements. Qwyrxian (talk) 12:23, 17 August 2011 (UTC)
