License tagging for Image:Microsoft Word - BIO-STMT FOR CLIENTS-doc file.pdf

Thanks for uploading Image:Microsoft Word - BIO-STMT FOR CLIENTS-doc file.pdf. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 04:09, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Leslie Kenton

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Leslie Kenton requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Calabe1992 (talk) 17:32, 13 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at Antisemitism shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

I apologise for the delay in replying: I have been on holiday without an internet connection.

With regard to your user page, the content you had there was not appropriate for a Wikipedia user page, see WP:NOTWEBHOST:

"Wikipedians have their own user pages, but they should be used primarily to present information relevant to working on the encyclopedia. Limited biographical information is allowed, but user pages should not function as personal webpages or be repositories for large amounts of material that is irrelevant to collaborating on Wikipedia. If you are looking to make a personal webpage or blog or to post your résumé, please make use of one of the many free providers on the Internet or any hosting included with your Internet account."

As the page states that it is a draft for an encyclopedia article, I have moved it to the appropriate place for a draft at User:RAYOLIVERESQ/Raymond A. Oliver, but I have to say that I think it is unlikely that it will be accepted. Wikipedia is not a place for people to write about themselves: before putting more effort into it, please read Wikipedia:Autobiography, particularly the section "Creating an article about yourself".

As I explained in this conversation a few years ago, your page about Leslie Kenton is now at User:RAYOLIVERESQ/Leslie Kenton.

If you wish to submit either of these pages, when it is ready you should click the blue "Submit" button, which will send the article for review by an experienced user, who will either accept it or give you feedback.

Wikipedia's inclusion criterion is called Wikipedia:Notability and is not a matter of saying so but has to be demonstrated by references showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." Significant means more than just listing-type mentions; reliable excludes Youtube, Facebook, blogs, places where anyone can post anything, and unpublished sources; independent excludes the subject's own website, affiliated ones and anything based on press releases. The test is, have people not connected with the subject thought it significant enough to write substantial comment about? See a;so WP:Notability (summary) and WP:Notability (people).

There is useful advice at Wikipedia:Your first article. You should also read the following important policies:

Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons
Wikipedia:Verifiability (content must be cited to reliable, published sources)
Wikipedia:No original research
