Speedy deletion nomination of Rascal Flatts Live edit

 

A tag has been placed on Rascal Flatts Live 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 verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. 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 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.

Proposed deletion of The Vault (Rascal Flatts album) edit

Possible hoax or misrepresentation. No hits at all outside Amazon.com.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

October 2009 edit

  Please do not add hoaxes to Wikipedia. Hoaxes are caught and marked for deletion shortly after they are created. If you are interested in how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method is to try to find inaccurate statements that are already in Wikipedia – and then to correct them if possible. Please don't disrupt Wikipedia in an attempt to test our ability to detect and remove such material. Feel free to take a look at the five pillars of Wikipedia policy to learn more about this project and how you can make a positive impact. Thank you.

AN/I edit

Hello, Countryboyjohn. This message is being sent to inform you that there currently is a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Sodam Yat (talk) 06:36, 15 October 2009 (UTC) I am notifying you of the discussion because the person that initiated it seems to have forgotten to, otherwise I am uninvolved.Reply

Further to the above thread, I have indefinitely blocked this account. This is because, although you have a few reasonably productive edits, the vast majority are less-than-helpful (and some are outright deceptive). You have not responded to other editors' concerns, and have clearly not read any of the editing policies you have been directed towards by other users. To work on a collaborative venture like this we expect editors to learn from their mistakes rather than persistently repeating them, and to make an effort to communicate with other editors on both talk-pages and in edit-summaries.
If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. EyeSerenetalk 16:52, 16 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
