Speedy deletion of Roger took
[edit]
A tag has been placed on Roger took 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 notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.
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. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Lincolnite (talk) 11:31, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
Roger Took
[edit]I removed the speedy deletion tag classifying the article as non-notable, but in doing so I found that the article was a direct cut-and-paste from The Spectator. I therefore deleted the article as a copyright violation. Please do not use copyrighted material in this manner on Wikipedia. You may write a well-referenced article on this subject, with multiple citations, including the Spectator feature, but you may not directly copy material from copyrighted sources.
