April 2010 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Weight loss do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. --- Barek (talkcontribs) - 20:42, 21 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

Additions edit

 

This is the final warning that you will receive regarding your disruptive edits. The next time you insert advertising or a spam link, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted from Wikipedia. --Hu12 (talk) 12:27, 27 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

These are sites I own and I am creating content and references around them. How does ABC, NBC, CNN etc and all those sites get to put in reference links to their own sites when they are ultimately doing the same thing I am doing but not getting penalised for it. Anyway sorry - I guess you have an issue with my posts. (Mrbeej (talk) 19:41, 31 January 2013 (UTC))Reply

Julian pencilliah edit

 

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Julian pencilliah, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://newsforafrica.co.za/2016/02/julian-pencilliah/.

It is possible that the bot was mistaken and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.)

Speedy deletion nomination of Julian pencilliah 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 Julian pencilliah requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://newsforafrica.co.za/2016/02/julian-pencilliah/. 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 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 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 or image 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 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 removed 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.

Status and Advice edit

As reviewing administrator, I deleted the article. Regardless of copyright questions, the work is advertising for the book, and the author shows no indications of significance. (WorldCat shows in fact that the book is in no libraries,and that no book from the publisher is in more than 61 libraries--so it is not in any sense a major publisher) And the book is not a best seller: Amazon shows it as 802 in Rligion and spirituality and lower in other categories.

Request reason:

Regardless how I feel I guess you have made up your mind based on past history - this author you say is irrelevant? So you telling me you cannot create a page about someone you deem to be a nobody - interesting! This was not self promotion, or promotion for a book (written in 2013 - why would he want to promote it now). He wanted a page on Wikipedia that he can start to build on and add history too - that's all I have to say really - thanks for your time.

Decline reason:

It is indeed correct that Wikipedia does not host articles about people who do not satisfy the Notability policy. It also appears to me that you are here for promotional purposes, and I don't see a justification for unblocking you based on this request.
