List of killings by law enforcement officers in the United States, June 2014

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of List of killings by law enforcement officers in the United States, June 2014, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.digplanet.com/wiki/List_of_killings_by_law_enforcement_officers_in_the_United_States%2C_June_2014.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) CorenSearchBot (talk) 14:31, 4 June 2014 (UTC)

The bot is definitely confused! :) FrogUnderALilyPad (talk) 15:09, 4 June 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of List of killings by law enforcement officers in the United States, June 2014

Hello FrogUnderALilyPad,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged List of killings by law enforcement officers in the United States, June 2014 for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. DJAMP4444 (talk) 15:03, 4 June 2014 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:American children's author Trenton Lee Stewart in 2008.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:American children's author Trenton Lee Stewart in 2008.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Peripitus (Talk) 02:18, 12 June 2014 (UTC)

Hi, well, I just undid your edit to Sufjan Stevens, but do feel free to have a gander and undo my undoing if you are confident in your original edit. Omphaloscope talk 12:51, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
