Budapest Process

It would be good to understand why Budapest Process has been removed — Preceding unsigned comment added by Glen Hodgson (talk • contribs) 16:29, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Glen Hodgson, the page Budapest Process has been deleted for copyright violations, so I can't see what edit I made (only admins can see deleted pages), but I have pinged GeneralNotability, an admin, to see if they can shed any light. Regards, Giraffer munch 17:36, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Giraffer, Glen Hodgson, I can't pull up the copyright check tool since the page is deleted, but I pulled up the deleted version and plugged a few sentences from the page into Google. Just about every sentence I checked was copied verbatim or near-verbatim from the budapestprocess website. Copying text from other sources is almost never acceptable since it is a copyright violation. GeneralNotability (talk) 18:16, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
