[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Kitchener Spirit logo.gif

Thank you for uploading Image:Kitchener Spirit logo.gif. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 05:16, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from pages that you have created yourself, as you did with 1979 Royal Bank of Scotland World Women's Curling Championship. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, then please place {{hangon}} on the page (please do not remove any existing speedy deletion tag) and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. BigHairRef | Talk 03:12, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of Erik Lefebvre

A tag has been placed on Erik Lefebvre 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 blatant 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.

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 include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." 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, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

The deletion was not because of one person and one source. It was because the text of the article was copied directly from the source — which violates Wikipedia's copyright policy. If you would like to continue working on the article — the text, minus the copyrighted text can be restored to your userspace where you can work on it. — ERcheck (talk) 03:13, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

I've created a personal sandbox page for you — User:Coppercanuck/Sandbox — and restored the content of the article you started, minus the copied text. You can work on the article there and when it is ready, start it in mainspace. I suggest that you re-write the text of the article. One reliable source is a good start. One other comment — images in the infobox cannot point to a www url, but need to be uploaded to Wikipedia or Commons in order to be rendered. — ERcheck (talk) 03:19, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
