Speedy deletion nomination of Health cooperative
[edit]A tag has been placed on Health cooperative requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
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 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.

Removing speedy deletion tags
[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. Jafeluv (talk) 22:58, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

Copyright violations
[edit]On Talk:Health cooperative, you state that the bot is wrong, yet the content you pasted appears to be a verbatim copy of the source. This further lives on in your user space, and this is not permissible either. Please note that you cannot copy / paste content from third parties without obtaining explicit permission beforehand (see WP:PERMISSION for guidelines on what is considered explicit permission), or, should you be the author of the source material, by properly releasing the material for publication on Wikipedia and all its mirrors (see WP:DCM for that).
The you used is licensed BY-NC-ND, a license wholly incompatible with Wikipedia. Also note that posting copyrighted material is prohibited everywhere, including to your user space.
Please do understand that Wikipedia takes copyright issues seriously and cannot leave these standing, and do consider this your final warning - any further improper addition of copyrighted material to Wikipedia may lead to removal of your editing privileges, without any further notice.
