Speedy deletion nomination of J. Bret Johnson


A tag has been placed on J. Bret Johnson 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://lakeexpo.com/news/lake_news/colonel-j-bret-johnson-sworn-in-as-new-highway-patrol/article_1426e8b2-f021-11e4-a797-df2098641849.html. 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. VQuakr (talk) 04:22, 11 May 2015 (UTC)

It looks like you were trying to create a list article, not a category. A category page is a collection of Wikipedia articles on a particular subject. A list article is not a collection of articles, but is itself an article that contains a list of information on a single topic. The headings you set up make it look like you intended to create a list of police commissioners, which would be an article. R'n'B (call me Russ) 09:44, 14 July 2015 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for July 14
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of St. Louis Police Department Chiefs of Police, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages William Lee, William Young and Joseph Casey. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Your addition to Metropolitan Police Department, City of St. Louis has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license.

I have undone your cut-and-paste move
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Metropolitan Police Department, City of St. Louis  a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Metropolitan Police Department of the City of St. Louis. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Requests for history merge. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 20:56, 1 December 2016 (UTC)

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks,

Pensacola Fire Department moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Pensacola Fire Department, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Cut-and-paste moves
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Police Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Department, City of St. Louis a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Requests for history merge. Thank you.

I did find another previous cut-and-paste move of the same page at List of St. Louis Police Department Chiefs of Police, and merged the history of all three. If you can remember any others that you have copied and pasted to a new name, it would be helpful if you would list them. – Fayenatic  L ondon 07:38, 15 May 2019 (UTC)
 * I note that you were warned about this above in 2016, but you have carried on doing cut-and-paste moves. I merged the page history of St. Louis Police Department to Metropolitan Police Department, City of St. Louis. I also found more recent ones at St. Louis Department of Public Safety and St. Louis Lambert Airport Police Department, and fixed them too.
 * Please ask for help with moving pages, or just follow the advice you have been given, rather than leaving messed-up history like this. If you were ever to do that again, there would be sanctions. – Fayenatic  L ondon 11:45, 15 May 2019 (UTC)

Category:St. Louis Commissioner of Police
You also created Category:St. Louis Commissioner of Police, as a duplicate of Category:St. Louis Police Department Chiefs. Please use the procedure at WP:Categories for discussion if you think a category should be renamed.

You are invited to contribute to the discussion at Categories_for_discussion/Log/2019_May_14. – Fayenatic  L ondon 07:38, 15 May 2019 (UTC)

Proposed merger of St. Louis Lambert Airport Police Department


The article St. Louis Lambert Airport Police Department has been proposed for merging because of the following concern: "Non-notable department. Not even mentioned by its full name at the 'official website' https://www.flystl.com/security. It is unlikely that notability (WP:ORG) could be demonstrated for a police dept for a specific location such as this."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

Please discuss this on the article's talk page.

Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp/dated tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced.
