Notability of St Clair Surf Life Saving Club

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on St Clair Surf Life Saving Club, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because St Clair Surf Life Saving Club seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting St Clair Surf Life Saving Club, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Your note

Thank you for your note at my talk page. I have replied. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 12:00, 25 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I realized that a section of this article duplicates material from Surf Life Saving New Zealand. Copying material from one article to another is problematic for licensing reasons, as contributors retain the right to authorship credit under GFDL. It's also unnecessarily redundant; we handle such situations by adding "see also" sections to related articles. The copied section has been removed and a "see also" provided to lead readers to the related article. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 00:26, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites 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. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website, [1], belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it and redistribute it, commercially or otherwise — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." Alternatively, you may 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 talk page of the article.

However, please note that even if you are in a position to authorize re-use of this text, text on websites related to organization is often promotional in nature and inappropriate for use on Wikipedia under our neutrality policy.

Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 11:13, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
