Speedy deletion nomination of Holyland (manga)
Hello Unclestanky,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Holyland (manga) for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Ging287 (talk) 01:44, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

Holyland (manga)
On the talk page, you wrote: "'I worked hard on that Holyland page, and didn't copy a single word. I'm merely trying to help the manga industry. We all know wikipedia is the biggest site for information, and with a page like that, the Holyland series could potentially spike in popularity.'"

Sorry, but you did copy it. Your article said: "'...high school student, Kamishiro Yu who doesn't fit in and is constantly bullied; fed up with the abuse Yu secretly trains in boxing and takes revenge on those who once bullied him. Eventually Yu's defeats call the attention of the local thugs, and Yu soon finds himself forced to keep fighting in order to keep his place, his holyland.'" and every word of that (except "who") is copied from http://www.dramago.com/japanese-drama/holyland. Copyright is a very serious matter for Wikipedia, new input is checked for copying both by people and by automatic systems, and users who continue to posted copied material after warning get blocked from editing. Please read Copy-paste. You must write in your own words.

Also, Wikipedia isn't here to help promote anything: an article would have to show Notability, which requires references to "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." See WP:Your first article for advice on how to write acceptable articles; also, there is WikiProject Anime and manga where you can find advice about writing on this subject.
