Crimmins

if you do not have access to social science citation index, to get a list of how many citations her papers have received, let me know when you are finished otherwise, and I will add the information. Don't be bothered by the inappropriate speedy, but the article is still unfortunately liable to be listed on AfD--tho certainly not by me. DGG 22:01, 2 May 2007 (UTC)DGG 17:40, 5 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Could you please add the details on her career first--positions, editorships in detail, awards with year, website, etc. . DGG 03:52, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Apology

I apologize for having made a stupid mistake last night by posting the above comment on your user page instead of here. I hope you will stay at WP despite the criticism you have been getting, not all of which is justified. In general, though, before adding a number of articles of a particular type, examine some other WP articles of the sort to see the kind of information which is wanted. I can & will defend the full professor articles at AfD, Associate professors are only sometimes notable. I will get the papers and citations for the batch of them. Would you please, today, get their successive degrees with universities and academic positions and add them. You can take them from their official web site at their university. Add that as well, under a division heading "external references". DGG 18:21, 5 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I want to urge you to do this, because she is unquestionably N. What I have done to give you some time is stubbified the article:First, rewrite the paragraphs. Then add the references. Please do this very fast--the article will have to be sent to afd today as there is an editor strongly opposed to it

And please dont start articles with copyvios. Wait till you have a chance to write them properly . DGG 12:52, 11 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Jon Pynoos

A tag has been placed on Jon Pynoos, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

- I see that this article too is a copyvio; I have removed the copyvio. DGG 14:13, 11 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Final Warning

Several of the articles you have added to WP are blatant copyright violations. This is not acceptable. If you should ever add another, you will be blocked. DGG 14:13, 11 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It occurs to me that you may be adding this articles in some connection with the department involved. Please be aware that this is called conflict of interest, and make people quite rightly very dubious about whether the subjects of the articles are indeed important. However, it also makes it possible that you are using your own website and may want to license some pages of the site under GFDL, in which case they would not be copyright violations. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials--you have to actually be entitled to do this by your own internal policies, follow all the formal steps---and realize that once you license the work under GFDL you have no further control over it, and even commercial use is permitted.

Phoebe Liebig

A {{prod}} template has been added to the article Phoebe Liebig, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with {{db-author}}. cholmes75 ^{(chit chat)} 14:29, 31 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
