Disambiguation link notification for December 4

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited John Buchan Ross, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Far East Command (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Speedy deletion nomination of John Maxwell Anderson

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 John Maxwell Anderson requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content or organised event, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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. WMartin74 (talk) 15:29, 11 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Have you tried the {{under construction}} tag? That tends to keep new page patrollers off my articles when they are in early form. S.G.^(GH) _ping! 16:08, 11 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the tag - an obituary in the BMJ is, almost by definition, significant coverage in a reliable source - enough to avoid speedy (my emphasis) deletion (though not necessarily other deletion activities yet as you need several reliable sources). I prefer to write new articles offline in a text editor and paste a fuller version with multiple sources as a first edit, mainly to avoid what's happened here!

I am going to add back the BLP sources template - the article only has two sources and that's not enough.--ukexpat (talk) 14:52, 10 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ronnie Fraser

Hi, I have re-instated the External link section with the link to his obituary, because I think the article needs to display clearly the fact that the subject had an obituary in a national newspaper. This fact is the strongest element in the article that confers notability on the subject and needs to be made prominent to deter other editors from questioning wether or not the subject has sufficient notability to warrant an article. Graemp (talk) 19:27, 24 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I understand the importance of the Herald obituary but surely its perfectly noticeable in the references section. I think you might be worrying about nothing!!!Gomach (talk) 19:41, 24 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I think that the subject of this article is distinctly "borderline delete" when it comes to notability, which is why I did not create it myself. If it gets nominated for deletion it will receive votes for deletion from people who know little or nothing about Scotland, farming or Liberal politics. I have elevated the notability of his 1950 candidacy attaching a DYN nomination in the hope that this would help and adding the broadcaster description that was used by The Times to describe him. Beefing out the broadcaster bit may help establish some further notability if you can dig up details. Graemp (talk) 04:43, 25 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks, I appreciate all your efforts. I am currently trying to find some more references. Could I please ask you to reference your sources properly. Your references are far too vague. It is vitally important for anyone trying to find the cited information that they have as much information as possible. If you could please use the quote parameter so that everyone can read the relevant sentence, paragraph, as cited it would be very helpful. Please use Craigflower Preparatory School as guidance. Thanks.Gomach (talk) 14:56, 25 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Properly referenced off-line sources are acceptable on wikipedia. Graemp (talk) 12:30, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am fully aware of that! I was asking you to improve the quality of your referencing as I don't think its good enough! At the moment the article is well below standard. Your work lacks inline citations and proper references. This article is a reflection on us both, so lets do our best. Please comply!Gomach (talk) 12:52, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Ronnie Fraser has been nominated for Did You Know

Hello, Gomach. Ronnie Fraser, an article you either created or significantly contributed to, has been nominated for Did you know consideration to appear on Wikipedia's Main Page. You can see the hook and the discussion here. You are welcome to participate! Thank you. APersonBot (talk!) 17:13, 24 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Ronnie Fraser

On 23 April 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Ronnie Fraser, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that in 1950 Ronnie Fraser stood as a candidate for the UK Parliament, even though he was too young to vote in that election? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Ronnie Fraser. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Wilfred Hoare

Hello. With this edit, you added a lengthy section of copyrighted material to Wilfred Hoare. Please note that per WP:NONFREE, "Excessively long copyrighted excerpts" are unacceptable. According to my calculations, the quote you added is 715 words long; the body of the article is only 711. The quote shouldn't overwhelm the article. Please trim it. Thank you. BlackcurrantTea (talk) 06:43, 24 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@BlackcurrantTea: I chose to place the whole article in quotes because the only way to access the article was via a ProQuest database through my local library card. From my own user experience I know how frustrating it can be to only have the odd quote from an article that is not easily accessible. Technically you are correct but I don't think The Herald (Glasgow) would mind. It's free publicity after all.Gomach (talk) 14:44, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I understand that sense of frustration. However, that's not an excuse for reproducing the entirety of a copyrighted article. Rather than report the issue at WP:CPI, I've removed all but the first sentence of the quote, and cut most of The Scotsman quote. If you'd prefer to keep different excerpts from the articles, of course you may select other brief quotations. I'm also putting a lengthy template below this, because it's a good source of information and links for copyright issues. Please read through it. Thank you. BlackcurrantTea (talk) 07:31, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Gomach, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Wilfred Hoare have been removed, as they appear to have added copyrighted material without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues here.

You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. BlackcurrantTea (talk) 07:31, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
