This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Theresa Helburn, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.brynmawr.edu/library/speccoll/guides/helburn/helburn.shtml. 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 message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot ( talk) 15:20, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
As you have already learned, the CorenSearchBot has identfied your page as a copyright violation. Simply stating in the edit summary that you have permission is not sufficient. You should place any pertinent copyright information you have from Bryn Mawr on the article's talk page and make a note of that copyright information on the main page (something like "used with permission from Bryn Mawr. For details see the talk page."). I hope this helps. WikiDan61 ChatMe! ReadMe!! 15:26, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Susan Grimes Walker requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. 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 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 belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — 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." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}}
to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

The article Theresa Helburn has come up for its seven day review following its tagging for copyright concerns. I see at the article's talk page that you indicate you have sent a letter to permissions. When that is received, a ticket number should be recorded at the article's talk page. It has been blanked in the meantime. You may want to review WP:Permissions if you're unsure that you sent the letter correctly. If it does not include all necessary information, then it may not be followed up.
Meanwhile, I see that you are also copying material to your userpage. I'm afraid that we must have clearance to display this as well. Copyrighted material cannot be placed anywhere on Wikipedia without verification of permission. The easiest way around this is to have Bryn Mawr release their material into GFDL, since that's effectively what it is doing in permitting placement of such material here anyway. Otherwise, you may find it simpler to avoid the issue by rewriting material in your own language.
I'm sorry for the extra difficulties of verifying this outside of Wikipedia's space itself, but as we do not require identity verification on account creation, we do need external evidence of permission for legal reasons. If you have any questions about this procedure, please let me know at my talk page. Thank you. -- Moonriddengirl (talk) 00:08, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
If you want to grant Wikipedia permission to use material from your site, but don't want to place a statement to that effect on your site, you can leave us a notice to that effect on the article's talk page (or on your user page if your site covers a number of topics). This does require that your site have a posted email contact, or some other similar means for us to verify that we really do have the relevant permission. Someone from Wikipedia will then contact that email address to confirm the permission, and we will be able to add your site to a list of those from which our editors may freely draw.
Is this just not true? It seems we are repeatedly being told this isn't okay. Bmcspecial ( talk) 17:14, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
“ | If you would like to allow Wikipedia to use your content, but don't want to put a license statement on the site (note that you still must release it under a free license), you can contact permissions-en@wikimedia.org for text for an article on the English Wikipedia, or another English Wikimedia site.... For text, after sending the email, you may put the text into the article, then place {{ OTRS pending}} on the article's discussion page.... Someone will reply to your email, indicating whether the content and your license is acceptable and update the page to indicate that the confirmation of the license has been received. | ” |
The article Grace Inez Crawford has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your
edit summary or on
the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the
proposed deletion process, but other
deletion processes exist. In particular, the
speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and
articles for deletion allows discussion to reach
consensus for deletion.
