Speedy deletion nomination of Torah high


A tag has been placed on Torah high 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. 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.

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Torah high, a page you have created yourself. If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Click here to contest this speedy deletion and appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. - Vianello (Talk) 19:56, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Torahhigh", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because WP:ORGNAME. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you. Mkdw talk 20:03, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

thank you, I choose username based off first article; poor choice, i will create a new account for editing. taptapntype (talk) 20:06, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

Creating your first article
still in process Torahhigh (talk) 19:46, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Torahhigh, there are several problems including the fact that it seems likely you are representing the organization which is a conflict of interest and using Wikipedia for promotional purposes. You may also need to review WP:CORPNAME regarding your username since it is the official name of the organization where you presumably work. Mkdw talk 20:01, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

understood. poor choice of username (based off first article). search results of Torah High on Google led me to create page, I notice pages like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torah_High_Schools_of_San_Diego exist and do not represent conflict of interest, I am merely trying to create the other relevant Torah High pages. if username represents conflict i will discard of account and make new one; permissible? thanks for your help.taptapntype (talk) 20:13, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Torah, this page may be imminently deleted so I'm going to move most of this discussion to your user talk page. Mkdw talk 20:25, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

The page may still be kept. You will likely need to create a new account with a more suitable name. Secondly, yes we do have articles about high schools. You can read about it at WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. The primary difference is that the content cannot be copied from copyright sources, and that the people who did create them, did not do so in a promotional way as to advance the school's interest. For your first article, I would recommend you use the article wizard which will outline what your article needs before going straight to the main space. Mkdw talk 20:29, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy. It also appears that your account is intended to be used for the purpose of telling the world about an organization or cause that you consider worthwhile. Unfortunately, many good causes are not sufficiently notable for their own Wikipedia article, and all users are discouraged from editing in any area where they have an inherent conflict of interest. You may wish to consider one of these alternative outlets. If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. Thank you. King of &hearts;   &diams;   &clubs;  &spades; 08:42, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
