Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Geospatial authentication, but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material. This article appears to be a copy from http://www.techbriefs.com/component/content/article/5170, and therefore a copyright violation. The copyrighted text has been or will soon be deleted. While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with our copyright policy. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators are liable to be blocked from editing.

If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under allowance license, then you should do one of the following:

It may also be necessary for the text be modified to have an encyclopedic tone and to follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

If you would like to begin working on a new version of the article you may do so at this temporary page. Leave a note at Talk:Geospatial authentication saying you have done so and an administrator will move the new article into place once the issue is resolved. Thank you, and please feel welcome to continue contributing to Wikipedia. Happy editing! Chuunen Baka (talk) 11:33, 1 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]


[edit]

Since we do not yet have verification of permission by the processes set out above and sufficient time has passed since the placement of the notice, the article has been deleted for copyright concerns. This deletion is not necessarily permanent. If you have already sent a letter to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License (CC-BY-SA) and GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) (if you are not the copyright holder or have co-authored the material, release under CC-BY-SA-compatible license alone is sufficient), the article will be restored when that letter is received and processed by the Wikimedia Communications committee. Likewise, if you have not yet sent a letter, you still may (or resend it, if you believe your original may have been lost), and the article will be restored when that letter is received and processed.

As Wikipedia does not require proof of identity on account creation, it is essential that we receive external proof of authorization in order to ensure that we remain compliant with US Copyright law. It is also essential that we verify that copyright holders understand the extent of the release they are authorizing, in that our licenses permit modification and reuse in any forum, even commercial publication, as long as authorship credit is maintained and future copies are compatibly licensed.

Please note that once permission is verified, the material may be evaluated and altered to meet Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Although we appreciate donations, we cannot guarantee that material donated will be retained.

Thank you. MLauba (talk) 09:42, 9 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Dr. Stacey D. Lyle

[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 Dr. Stacey D. Lyle 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 or group of people, 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Singularity42 (talk) 16:28, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Reply to your question on my talk page

[edit]

Wikipedia is not a site like LinkedIn for people to post their CVs: it is a project to build an encyclopedia, and has quite demanding admission criteria for article subjects. For academics, those are explained at WP:Notability (academics). Also, even for people who are notable by Wikipedia's standard, writing about oneself is strongly discouraged, for reasons explained at Wikipedia:Autobiography.

If you want to help with the encyclopedia project, you are welcome, and you have a user page at User:Aggiebulldog where you can post some information about yourself to help communication within the project; but user pages are not intended for "substantial content... that is unrelated to Wikipedia" such as a list of all your papers - see WP:UPNOT.

[edit]

Hello Aggiebulldog. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Stacey D. Lyle, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about following the reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

  • Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
  • Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
  • Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
  • Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. VQuakr (talk) 17:21, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Notability

[edit]

You wrote on the talk page of your article: "I am responsible to adding all the faculty of the university." Please understand that Wikipedia is not LinkedIn, it is a project to build an encyclopedia, and is therefore selective about article subjects. You should read, carefully, WP:Notability (academics), which is a reasonably demanding standard. If you try to post articles about colleagues who do not meet it, this may cause embarrassment when they are deleted and, for some time afterwards, a Google search will turn up the notice which says the page has been deleted and why. Before posting articles on behalf of your faculty you should also read the guideline on Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. JohnCD (talk) 19:32, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Geospatial authentication

[edit]
Notice

The article Geospatial authentication has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

After conducting a WP:BEFORE search, the only sources I could find were from NASA, and therefore I do not think there are any secondary sources showing that this is notable.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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.
