Speedy deletion nomination of File:Cinnamomum parthenoxylon Bark.JPG
A tag has been placed on File:Cinnamomum parthenoxylon Bark.JPG requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a file licensed as "for non-commercial use only", "no derivative use", "for Wikipedia use only", or "used with permission"; and it has not been shown to comply with the limited standards for the use of non-free content. If you agree with the deletion, there is no need to do anything. If, however, you believe that this image may be retained on Wikipedia under one of the permitted conditions then:
- state clearly the source of the image. If it has been copied from elsewhere on the web you should provide links to: the image itself, the page which uses it and the page which contains the license conditions.
- add the relevant copyright tag and if necessary, a complete fair use rationale.
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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

- @William Harris: i just created that redirect based on the lede in the article. I now cannot find mention of it elsewhere, so it likely is made up. --awkwafaba (📥) 14:39, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
- Yes there are a couple of editors who have fallen for it recently. I assume it arose from some un-WP:RELIABLE website article and at some time in the past an editor thought that they were helping, however hopefully we can address it now with a deletion. William Harris (talk) 07:27, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
- I tried to get this deleted through the speedy deletion process, but the criteria for misinformation/hoax does not apply to redirects.
- I am advised that if you - as the creator of the redirect - were to blank the page and replace it with this template {{db-author}} then it can be speedy deleted. May I ask you to do that, please? William Harris (talk) 00:34, 12 March 2021 (UTC)
- @William Harris: usually i would want to keep it because it will still get people to the right place, but as it seems the hoax originated on enwiki there shouldn’t be anyone searching for it. So I added the template. --awkwafaba (📥) 18:51, 12 March 2021 (UTC)
- Many thanks - I am grateful for your help removing some confusion on Wikipedia. Happy editing! William Harris (talk) 20:41, 12 March 2021 (UTC)

A hobby is considered to be a regular activity that is done for enjoyment, typically during one's leisure time, not professionally and not for pay. An example of a hobby is rail transport modelling (pictured).
