Speedy deletion nomination of User:CBDB.CBDB/sandbox02[edit]

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 User:CBDB.CBDB/sandbox02 requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.stoke.gov.uk/download/downloads/id/1247/making_the_creative_city_-_a_cultural_strategy_for_stoke-on-trent.pdf, https://www.theguardian.com/stage/2021/oct/04/hilary-hughes-obituary, and https://www.b-arts.org.uk/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken 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 use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy 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 deleted 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.

I had created a second sandbox as indicated in the title, where I worked out references and quotes. I was under the impression that this is what sandboxes where there for. Is it possible to get that page back, now that it has been deleted? CBDB.CBDB (talk) 00:15, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Help me![edit]

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

Please help me with... I have used my sandbox to draft a new short article. How do get it reviewed, and I move it to a new article without me losing my sandbox?

When you think your draft is ready, click on the button that says "Submit your draft for review".

There's some chance a reviewer will move it to draft space if you don't choose to do this yourself.

You can create new files in your userspace for more drafts - there's nothing very special about 'sandbox' except that the user interface provides a link to it in the top menu. I usually recommend that you start drafts as userspace drafts - that allows you to give them sensible names.

Now, about your current draft, you may want to try to find some more non-local coverage to help establish your subject's notability. — jmcgnh^{(talk) (contribs)} 09:25, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: B arts (November 5)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by WikiOriginal-9 was:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Not enough significant, independent coverage.

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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:B arts and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.
