Welcome to Wikipedia.

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, such as on Talk:Natan Slifkin, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when.

Warning: Wikipedia can be addictive!

Happy editing!

Draft:The Institute For Medical Research Israel-Canada (IMRIC)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Draft:The Institute For Medical Research Israel-Canada (IMRIC), and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.fisher.org.il/Canada/IMRI.htm.

It is possible that the bot was mistaken and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:The Institute For Medical Research Israel-Canada (IMRIC)

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 Draft:The Institute For Medical Research Israel-Canada (IMRIC) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.fisher.org.il/Canada/IMRI.htm. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed 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 modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines 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.

Copyright and conflict of interest

Thank you for your interest in creating an article for Draft:The Institute For Medical Research Israel-Canada (IMRIC) on Wikipedia. There are multiple problems with your submission. You cannot post copyrighted material on Wikipedia even if you are the copyright holder. In short, a copyright owner cannot offer Wikipedia a one-time license for use. Rather, the copyright to the material has to be released – permanently and irrevocably – into the public domain or under a free copyright license that is compatible with Wikipedia's licenses. This is because Wikipedia aims to be freely distributable and copyable by anyone, so all content must be licensed for that purpose. Draft articles are not exempt from these restrictions. You can learn more about this policy at Wikipedia:Copyrights.

The second problem is conflict of interest. Writing an article about your own organization or that of a client is strongly discouraged, as it is difficult to maintain the required neutral point of view. Since you have also said that you are an employee of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and are editing topics relating to this institution, you must make this disclosure on your main user page User:Gillkay, as per WP:COIPAYDISCLOSE. This disclosure is mandatory per the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use.

If you'd like to use the copyrighted content in an article, you can follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission on how to obtain the proper licensing. If you are the copyright holder, refer to Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for how to grant us permission to use your content. Alternatively, you could write a new article that does not closely paraphrase the material available online. However you would then still have to abide by the conflict of interest guideline. I'm sorry this message could not be more favourable. If you have any questions, you can leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. --Drm310 (talk) 00:17, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: The Institute For Medical Research Israel-Canada (IMRIC) (April 16)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by CookieMonster755 was:

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Dear valued Wikipedia user, I want to thank you for taking your time to make Wikipedia a better and more reliable source of information by submitting your draft to Articles for Creation, a wonderful resource on Wikipedia for all kinds of users who want their draft to be reviewed by other Wikipedia users to make sure that it fits all Wikipedia guidelines before entering the main space. At AfC, we strive to make users like you feel valued and welcomed here, and we want to help you create, edit, and make changes to articles and drafts. Again, thank you for using AfC. My name is Cookie Monster, and I want to let you know that your draft is being declined today, for several reasons. Please don't feel sad, because I will help you address some of the issues needing to be fixed! I once was a user like you who had drafts declined, but I got more and more experienced and wanted to focus my time with editors like you at AfC. So let's go over what needs improvement. First of all, I notice many external links in the body of the draft. According to Wikipedia's guidelines on External links, they should not normally be placed in the body of an article, and the policy says that All external links must conform to certain formatting restrictions. This is key importance for your article to meet main space guidelines and be accepted. I also notice that you have many external links to websites not directly related to the topic you are writing about. Policy says that we usually don't allow links like that. So what I will ask you to do is this:

Remove all external links in the body
Remove all links that are not directly related to the subject
If there are any links that are directly related to the subject, create a new section named External links and list them there.

That is a huge improvement that can be done easily. Now, on to the next steps for improvement. I strongly suggest removing Notable Faculty Members section. If those subjects are notable to be listed in this article, those subjects would most likely have Wikipedia articles of their own. Research Centers and Research Hubs I would also remove. It seems to be promotional and needs to be removed to meet NPOV policy. One more thing! The formatting in the article needs some improvement. I would take a look at this page to help you learn about formatting articles on Wikipedia.

I am so happy that I could help you out! I love to help users like you, and Thank you once again for using AfC.

Once you are done making the above improvements, you have several options to choose from.

You may have me review your article again. If so, you are always welcome anytime to leave me a message on talk page. I will be happy to review your draft again. If I still decline it again, I am happy to help you edit the article and submit it!
If you don't feel like having me review it again, and want to meet a new AfC user who would be happy to help you review and give feedback, please resubmit the draft for review and one of our wonderful AfC users will be happy to help you. However, please note, we have so many users like you who need help, that it may take about one week or more depending on our size load. Be patient for me! :)
Your last option is getting help from the Teahouse. It is a wonderful Wikipedia group who helps new editors like you get help editing Wikipedia and they also can help you with your draft!

Any questions? Feel free to ask me!

Best of luck, CookieMonster755 ^(talk) 16:51, 16 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: The Institute For Medical Research Israel-Canada (IMRIC) (May 16)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by DGG was:

We don't usually decline just for writing style, but this is impossibly wordy, and written in the manner of a web page, not an encyclopedia article; don't try to explain why the various fields of biomedicine are important; don't give the names of the heads of units--the actual web page is the place for that. Don't use jargon like "provide a multidisciplinary base." don't include meaningless sentences like ". There are numerous collaborations between groups in the department and with other groups at IMRIC." And make absolutely sure nothing of this is copied or closely paraphrased from the actual web site.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.
