Contested deletion[edit]

This page should not be speedy deleted as an unambiguous copyright infringement, because... (your reason here) --Elisabete A Silva (talk) 14:40, 8 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This page should not be speedy deleted as an unambiguous copyright infringement, because... I am just learning how to build these pages. I am trying to highlight the importance of Spatial Analysis and Planning and all the researchers that contributed to the field. I contacted Prof. Kotval and asked her if I could create a page he accepted. Unfortunately I wasn-t aware that some of the text can-t be as it is and will make sure it isn-t a copy/past of their website. All guidance from you is good, as I am just trying to understand how these things work. Many thanks and many thanks for all the help you can give.

This page should not be speedy deleted as an unambiguous copyright infringement, because... (your reason here) --Elisabete A Silva (talk) 15:12, 8 July 2020 (UTC) As mentioned I contacted Prof. Kotval in order to have her permission to create a page. There are very few webpages that highlight the importance of spatial analysis and planning and all these pages will be about researchers that work on the area. All help from you will be very welcomed. In the case of Prof. Kotval there are some similar parts of text and I will make sure they are completely different from her webpage.[reply]

Here are some pages that should be helpful to read: Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide; Wikipedia:Copyright violations; and Help:Your first article. -Lopifalko (talk) 17:41, 8 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
