Shankar Kumar Sanyal moved to draftspace edit

An article you recently created, Shankar Kumar Sanyal, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

@Maliner I've deleted most of another go at this BLP for copyvio. Doug Weller talk 11:02, 14 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Links to draft articles edit

  Please do not introduce links in actual articles to draft articles, as you did to Harijan Sevak Sangh. Since a draft is not yet ready for the main article space, it is not in shape for ordinary readers, and links from articles should not go to a draft. Such links are contrary to the Manual of Style. These links have been removed. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 22:06, 29 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Shankar Kumar Sanyal 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:Shankar Kumar Sanyal 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 https://sankarsanyal.com/about.php. 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.

Proposed deletion of Shankar Kumar Sanyal edit

 

The article Shankar Kumar Sanyal has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Sankar Kumar Sanyal is not a notable personality, he did nothing to be notable, in this article there is no information about him

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

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

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 10:00, 4 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

This edit at Shankar Kumar Sanyal looks dishonest edit

A harsh description, but I see that you wrote

"Recipient of 'International Man of the Year - 1997-98' awarded by the Editorial Board of International Biographical Centre (IBC), Cambridge, England on 28th April 1998. The IBC is a non-political, secular organization publishing, among other works, many highly respected International Who's Who Biographical titles." As you linked the International Biographical Centre it's hard to believe that you didn't notice the lead says these are vanity awards, and the body of the article starts with:

"Government consumer advocates have described it as a "scam" or as "pretty tacky". Its use to support the granting of a US O-1 visa (for individuals with an extraordinary ability) has been described by US employer Oracle Corporation as purchasing "vanity accolades" to use as "phony credentials", with a warning that "visa fraud is a serious crime" with severe penalties.

In 2007, referring to the International Biographical Centre, the American Biographical Institute and Marquis Who's Who, Jan Margosian, consumer information coordinator for the Oregon Department of Justice, warned consumers to be wary and called the companies "pretty tacky", adding "I don't know why they would put you in there if they weren't hoping to get you to buy the book.. "You truly have to look at how they are marketing and what the spin is. It's something you might want to watch out for."

Please explain. Doug Weller talk 08:58, 14 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

That's not all. You seem altogether to have written the article to promote the person, which is not allowed on Wikipedia. This edit, for example, added some highly promotional language: "In addition to his prolific profile as an astute Gandhian and a dedicated constructive social worker, Sri Sanyal has contributed immensely to the cause of rural development." You need to read MOS:PEACOCK and the policy Wikipedia:Neutral point of view. Bishonen | tålk 10:31, 14 October 2023 (UTC).Reply

Proposed deletion of Shankar Kumar Sanyal edit

Hello, Dr. ashok shukla

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username DoubleGrazing, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've proposed an article that you started, Shankar Kumar Sanyal, for deletion because it meets one or more of our deletion criteria, and I don't think that it is suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia. The particular issue can be found in the notice that is now visible at the top of the article.

If you wish to contest the deletion:

  1. Edit the page
  2. Remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
  3. Click the Publish changes button.

If you object to the article's deletion, please remember to explain why you think the article should be kept on the article's talk page and improve the page to address the issues raised in the deletion notice. Otherwise, it may be deleted later by other means.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|DoubleGrazing}}. And remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. Thanks!
