User talk:Instant steve
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions to the page User:Instant steve/sandbox, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. In addition, the page appeared to be unambiguous promotion, which is contrary to Wikipedia policy. Either of these reasons would have been enough grounds for deletion under section the criteria for speedy deletion, and so the page has been 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 include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later, and the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License." You may also e-mail or mail the Foundation to release the content. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more.
While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with our copyright policy. Wikipedia takes copyright concerns very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here. You can also leave a message on my talk page. JamesBWatson (talk) 01:48, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
