Speedy deletion of Raj Vaidyamath
A tag has been placed on Raj Vaidyamath 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 â which means allowing other people to modify it â 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.

Please do not remove
speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself, as you did with
Umesh Vaidyamath. Please use the {{
hangon}} template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion, and make your case on the page's
talk page. Thank you.

Hi, with regard to your note at Talk:Umesh Vaidyamath, unfortunately Wikipedia can only accept content which has been explicitly released under the GFDL license. This means that we must have permission from content owners for the text to be modified and used for any reason, commercial or otherwise, before we can add it to an article. Copyright law protects everybody's creations from unauthorised replication - e.g. being copied and displayed on someone else's web page. As one of the most-viewed websites in the world, Wikipedia must make every effort to protect itself and its contributors from potential legal consequences, and therefore such content is often quickly deleted. This isn't a reflection on the topic, and a subject will usually be accepted if it meets our notability guidelines. Copyright on Wikipedia is a complex area, and if you have any questions, leave me a message and I'd be happy to help or point you to someone who can. â Toon (talk) 17:35, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
I have nominated INSZoom, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/INSZoom. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.
Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. JCutter ( talk) 02:43, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!
I hope not to seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but I noticed your username, and I am concerned that it might not meet Wikipedia's username policy. After you look over that policy, could we discuss that concern here?
I'd appreciate learning your own views, for instance your reasons for wanting this particular name, and what alternative username you might accept that avoids raising this concern.
You have several options freely available to you:
- If you can relieve my concern through discussing it here, I can stop worrying about it.
- If the two of us can't agree here, we can ask for help through Wikipedia's dispute resolution process, such as requesting comments from other Wikipedians. Wikipedia administrators usually abide by agreements reached through this process.
- You can keep your contributions history under a new username. Visit Wikipedia:Changing username and follow the guidelines there.
Thank you. JCutter ( talk) 02:48, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
In addition, accounts are for individuals only, not for companies or groups or other collective editing, and your username should reflect this.
Wikipedia is not a promotion website; this kind of activity is considered spam on Wikipedia, and forbidden by policies, and usernames that appear to be promotional also violate our username policy. Editing on Wikipedia is not intended to be used to promote anyone, or anything, and its use for that purpose will result in blocking of the account involved.
If you feel that there has been a mistake, please appeal this block by adding the text{{
unblock|Your reason here}} on
your user talk page or contacting the administrator who has blocked you. Your reason should include a clear response to this issue and a new username you wish to adopt that does not violate our
username policy. Please check that your new username has not already been taken
here.
