I just published a wiki page for a group named PARSEC. I want it noted that I am publishing this page under no expectation of payment or compensation of my labor, knowledge, for my efforts to publishing the same. I expect no compensation and this submission is entirely done free of the same.

Thank you for making this declaration (though your User page is where people would look for it). But I'm puzzled why you then referred to approval by your client, which usually suggests a professional relationship. In any case, you have a conflict of interest, and need to be aware of the recommendations for that circumstance. --ColinFine (talk) 22:34, 19 July 2020 (UTC)Reply


Speedy deletion nomination of Scott Binsack edit

Hello Basaatw,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Scott Binsack for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, 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. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 16:01, 4 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Figure of speech edit

Hi, I'm writing to request a discussion on the Figure of speech "What the deuce" I would like to determine its source and original meaning. if any. Although it is not included in a search of Wikipedia I think it should be included as a stand-alone phase.

[1]

[2] [3] [4]

I'm am will to request its inclusion but I need help to determine the category. as well as other detail to produce a successful inclusion. thks for your help ahead of time.Basaatw (talk) 23:35, 9 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

I have been advised to search on " our sister project, Wiktionary, does. If you look up "deuce" over there" >>> That's all well and good, but it's the phase alone "What the Deuce" which in my mind is in fact notable. According to the word deuce is a #2 die or a #2 card, Both of which do not explain the complete term as presented.. I don't mean to bring this up again but the meaning of the word deuce just doesn't answer the mean of the phase. I think the phase must have it's own mean and is notable because of it's usage.. and I don't think it has to do with have to do playing cards or craps... else maybe it does some how, which begs the question.

Wikipedia and copyright edit

  Hello Basaatw, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Draft:Franklin Boggs have been removed, as they appear to have added copyrighted material without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues here.

  • You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
  • Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
  • Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
  • If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
  • In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
  • Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 14:41, 22 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link.

A tag has been placed on Parsec Incorporated, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Parsec Incorporated edit

 

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 Draft:Parsec Incorporated requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from specpo.wordpress.com/2019/07/23/confluence-2019-pittsburgh. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material 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 use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy 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 "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.
