Speedy deletion nomination of User:Wikimob66
[edit]
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. A tag has been placed on User:Wikimob66 requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section U5 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to consist of writings, information, discussions, or activities not closely related to Wikipedia's goals. Please note that Wikipedia is not a free web hosting service. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time.
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 "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 deleted 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Wikipedia and copyright
[edit] Hello Wikimob66! Your additions to Tyrell Davis have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, it's important to understand and adhere to guidelines about using information from sources to prevent copyright and plagiarism issues. Here are the key points:
- Limited quotation: You may only copy or translate a small portion of a source. Any direct quotations must be enclosed in double quotation marks (") and properly cited using an inline citation. More information is available on the non-free content page. To learn how to cite a source, see Help:Referencing for beginners.
- Paraphrasing: Beyond limited quotations, you are required to put all information in your own words. Following the source's wording too closely can lead to copyright issues and is not permitted; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when paraphrasing, you must still cite your sources as appropriate.
- Image use guidelines: In most scenarios, only freely licensed or public domain images may be used and these should be uploaded to our sister project, Wikimedia Commons. In some scenarios, non-freely copyrighted content can be used if they meet all ten of our non-free content criteria; Wikipedia:Plain and simple non-free content guide may help with determining a file's eligibility.
- Copyrighted material donation: If you hold the copyright to the content you want to copy, or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license the text for publication here. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
- Copying and translation within Wikipedia: Wikipedia articles can be copied or translated, however they must have proper attribution in accordance with Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. For translation, see Help:Translation § License requirements.
It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices. Persistent failure to comply may result in being blocked from editing. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. Diannaa (talk) 12:33, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- I republished a quote on the Tyrell Davis page and properly added the proper citation. Perhaps you can remove you speedy deletion request? I really don't understand what the point is of sending me all the information on how to avoid copyright problems and then asking to delete me without giving me the opportunity to correct the mistakes. How is anybody supposed to learn and get better if you delete them? WikiMob66 Wikimob66 (talk) 09:49, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
- The passage I removed had no quotation marks and no citation. I can send you the removed content via email if you like, but you will have to activate your Wikipedia email first. Diannaa (talk) 14:38, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
- It appears that you misunderstood what I said. I do not deny that the information that you removed was not properly posted . We learn from our mistakes. So, my question was, now that you removed the improper info and I have posted a new quote properly, will you remove your Speedy deletion nomination of User:Wikimob66 ? What is the point of removing users simply because they've made a mistake? WikiMob66 Wikimob66 (talk) 01:35, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

Contested deletion
[edit]This page should not be speedily deleted because (your reason here) --WikiMob66 Wikimob66 (talk) 07:54, 15 November 2024 (UTC) I corrected the copywrite error by adding only one quote and citing it. And there nothing wrong with saying who you are on your user page. How is anyone supposed to learn and make contributions if you delete user pages?
