Your edit to Nadir Mohamed[edit]
Message posted on Monday, April 23, 2007[edit]
Please do not post copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to Nadir Mohamed. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites (http://www.rogers.com/english/investorrelations/mohamed.html in this case) 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) then you should do one of the following:
- If you have permission from the author leave a message explaining the details on the article Talk page and send an email with the message to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
- If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted under the GFDL or released into the public domain leave a note at Talk:Nadir Mohamed with a link to where we can find that note;
- If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the GFDL, and note that you have done so on the article Talk page. Alternatively, you may create a note on your web page releasing the work under the GFDL and then leave a note at Talk:Nadir Mohamed with a link to the details.
Otherwise, you are encouraged to rewrite this article in your own words to avoid any copyright infringement. After you do so, you should place a {{hangon}} tag on the article page and leave a note at Talk:Nadir Mohamed saying you have done so. An administrator will review the new content before taking action.
It is also important that all Wikipedia articles have an encyclopedic tone and follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Your original contributions are welcome.

Bio Pages[edit]
A biographical article you have recently written may not meet Wikipedia's generally accepted criteria for inclusion of biographies. It has likely been marked for deletion. Don't worry, there are several other options:
- Create an entry for yourself on one of the many social networking websites.
- Many ISPs allow you to create your own website, often at no extra charge.
With the above options your biography will be protected from being edited by others, unlike a Wikipedia article.
- You may create a wiki at EditThis.info or one of the other wiki farms.
- If you are attempting to make an entry for genealogical purposes, you may find WikiTree.org a useful site (but please do not simply copy material to Wikitree unless you are the original author - their license terms are different from Wikipedia's).
- If you are, or intend to become, a regular Wikipedia contributor, please use your user page (user:Dtx5401) to post biographical information about yourself.
