Speedy deletion nomination of Williamsburg Technical College
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Williamsburg Technical College requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www.wiltech.edu/get-to-know-wtc.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. -★- PlyrStar93. →Message me. 🖉← 23:26, 17 August 2017 (UTC)
- Hello, Hiteqq, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. "Williamsburg Technical College" has been speedily deleted because it was an unambiguous copyright infringement. At the bottom of each page on the http://www.wiltech.edu/ website is "Copyright 2015 Williamsburg Technical College". In the deleted article you copied and pasted the page http://www.wiltech.edu/get-to-know-wtc.html. Perhaps you could start the WP:DRAFT article Draft:Williamsburg Technical College, written in your own words but with references from reliable sources that are independent of the subject of the article. I would be happy to help you out with this, or with any questions you may have about Wikipedia, as much as I can, but due to work commitments, I'm not online so often. I would suggest you contact the 24/7 open dedicated "help desk" here. Pete AU aka --Shirt58 (talk) 11:04, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
