Speedy deletion nomination of Sarah Behrman

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 Sarah Behrman, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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 "Click here to 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. SL93 (talk) 20:29, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Sarah Behrman

Hi. The article was almost entirely a word-for-word copy of [1]. For more information on how this is a copyright violation, please see Wikipedia:Copyrights. Best, Spencer^T♦C 23:58, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I asked Mordechi Lightsone to write the article for both Wikipedia and to be published as a obit on several local blogs. But I edited the article. Crown Heights Info (the site you linked)is owned by B lipshitz and edited by Zalmy Wolf. They both will confirm I gave them the article and you can post as her wiki page. You can also confirm with M ligtstone, the author of the article.

Also be aware that while I deleted the article for copyright-related issues, the article could still be deleted for other reasons as well, such as a lack of notability.
