This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of John Glen (Conservative politician), and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.johnglen.org/about-me. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites 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.)
This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 02:37, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of John Glen (Conservative politician)
edit
A tag has been placed on John Glen (Conservative politician) 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 clear 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.

- Hi, thank you for the article you posted earlier. Unfortunately, it appeared to be substantively the same as [1]; that page asserts copyright. Wikipedia articles are licensed by WP:CC-BY-SA, a Creative Commons license that allows for redistribution by third parties for pretty much any purpose, including commercial use, without prior consultation or recompense. While much of that article was copied directly or closely paraphrased from that source, it looks like you are working the article into a more encyclopedic form. Thank you for that. I am leaving the copy at User:Politicaleditor/John Glen where you can work on it at your leisure, but please make sure that the text is original and based on independent reliable sources before moving the draft into the main article space. If you have any questions, would like help with anything, or would just like to stop by for a chat and a spot of tea, please do not hesitate to swing by my talkpage. Happy editing, - 2/0 (cont.) 08:06, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
Inline external link in Salisbury (UK Parliament constituency)
editI removed the inline external link that you added to the above article as per WP:EL: External links should not normally be used in the body of an article. Instead, include appropriate external links in an "External links" section at the end of the article, and in the appropriate location within an infobox, if applicable. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 09:31, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
