A tag has been placed on Viacheslav Dinerchtein 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 clear 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 verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website 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 that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Removed, but see next message.--SPhilbrickT 22:27, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Can you help me understand this?

[edit]

I see that Viacheslav Dinerchtein was tagged for speedy deletion on the basis of a possible copyright violation. I removed the tag, because the site in question http://www.freebase.com/view/en/viacheslav_dinerchtein claims the material came from Wikipedia. However, the material on that site has been there for months (I think) while you just created the Wikipedia article today. Can you shed any light on this?--SPhilbrickT 22:28, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

However, the article was a copyright violation of http://www.classicalconnect.com/Viacheslav_Dinerchtein/2598. (I'm aware that is it not word for word, but it is Close paraphrasing, so I deleted it.--SPhilbrickT 23:09, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I recall having seen this article - a shorter version of it - some months ago and it still exists in other languages. It surprised me very much when I discovered that someone deleted it, and so I re-did it again. This is a highly accomplished violist, who performed in the most prestigious venues around the world and makes important contributions in popularizing the viola, and I see no reason why information about him would not be made available to the public. I am pretty certain that I came across an article about him before (and that may answer your question). It may have been deleted either by mistake or else (that is, lack of knowledge). I accept the criticism that text may sound similar to the one found in http://www.classicalconnect.com/Viacheslav_Dinerchtein/2598 or similar sources. I will make several adjustments to the article I submitted. Thanks.
Thanks. Some editors are under the impression that it isn't a copyright problem if the wording is changed slightly. That's not the case. I'm also personally worried I will read something somewhere, then later try to write the information and use very similar words. I don't know how it came about that the wording was so close, and I don't really care - it is clear you understand that the similar wording is a problem. Good luck with a new version.--SPhilbrickT 03:44, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
