Proposed deletion of Karel Styblo

The article Karel Styblo has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Second notice

You were notified above of Wikipedia's copyright policies, yet recreated Karel Styblo, saying it was taken directly from the subject's CV. That would also be a copyvio. Please see WP:V, WP:NN, and if you need help creating an article in your own words based on reliable sources that meet notability, you can propose text at Talk:Karel Styblo.

I am trying to celebrate the work of public health hero and tuberculosis control pioneer Karel Styblo. Although as a scientist he was extensively published, there is very little information published about him biographically, with the exception of a handful of obituaries, appreciations, and a fragment of a photo and CV from the 1980s. There is no one to give permission to use his photo, and as it was originally intended for use in a scientific program he was speaking at, it seemed reasonable that he provided it for publicity purposes. This seems to constitute fair use, and as it was presented in the pre-internet era, is one of a very few photos available of him. The tributes and appreciations referenced can be re-worked; can this content be made available again for this purpose? As far as the CV is concerned, the subject is deceased, doesn't that obviate the issue of copyright of this particular resource? Thanks for your help. -- Anderton (talk) 23:14, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

Copyright continues for many years after an author's death. As to the image, you are probably OK claiming fair use. As to the CV, Wikipedia is not for CVs. Please use the CV to create a proper article in your own words. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 23:29, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
