This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Gun laws in South Carolina, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://fbinicsystem.com/us-gun-laws-by-state/south-carolina-background-check-and-gun-laws.html.
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.

- Hello, I am looking at this entry in WP:SCV now. You are surely not to blame as these articles were split from a larger one, Gun laws in the United States (by state). It is likely the website was a mirror. However, when splitting content from one article to another, don't forget to attribute the text. You can see how I attributed it here. It is part of Wikipedia's CC-BY-SA license and also helps in situations like this. If you have any questions, let me know.--NortyNort (Holla) 21:52, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
Gun laws articles and copyright
I have two questions about your gun laws articles. First, I'm surprised many of these subjects don't already exist. I know I've seen similar articles before, although maybe with different naming. You should make sure that you're not duplicating articles that already exist when you create them.
Second, as the copyright bot has already shown, you seem to be copying material from another website. Even if that qualifies as public domain (which I'm not sure if it does) you need to attribute it appropriately. Please review our WP:PLAGIARISM policy for more info. Shadowjams (talk) 01:17, 23 December 2011 (UTC)
- It seems that some of these articles are direct copies. Can you please explain? Shadowjams (talk) 01:22, 23 December 2011 (UTC)
- Per Gun_Law_copyright on my talk page, it is believed that a site is copying Wikipedia (not the other way around). There was a lengthy discussion about Splitting up the article that took place. If an article named "Guns laws in ___" already existed, I did not write over it. Thanks!

Speedy deletion nomination of Danny Lamagna
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Danny Lamagna 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 band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Greenmaven (talk) 10:12, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a search with the contents of List of high schools in Asunción, Paraguay, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: List of high schools in Paraguay. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

- Jax 0677, please make sure that when you split articles you attribute the original page in your edit summary (e.g. "content split from List of high schools in Paraguay"). This is really easy to do and it provides the attribution that's required by our licensing. Thanks! — madman 15:23, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

List of American Civil War Generals (Confederate)
Please cease splitting the article: List of American Civil War Generals (Confederate) and delete the newly split pages. You tagged the article for discussion but within hours you began to split the article. I assume you did not carefully read my plan for the article on the talk page - or perhaps I was not entirely clear. Here is the talk page addition that I just posted in response to your tag. I ask you to consider this carefully. I will not work on this article further until this is resolved. I do not say this out of pique. I have spent quite a bit of time on this and I believe I can have it in good final form, and not too long, within a few weeks at most. Since I think the value of the article will be largely dissipated by splitting it, I would rather go on to work on other new or revised articles than spend more time on fragmented articles that I do not believe are very useful. Donner60 (talk) 02:33, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
- My sincerest apologies, I have undone my edits, and plan to blank the page I created for that same reason.--Jax 0677 (talk) 02:44, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
- Apologies are unnecessary here. I have built an article that is too long and am not quite finished at that - but I have developed a plan for it to be useful and also to be reduced in size. I had no intention of creating such a lengthy article from a list; it has gotten that way because I have kept adding information. I agree that the list can not stay in a single article in the form and in the length it is. I think I can create a good reference page, which will be preserved in the history and noted at least on the talk page, and a much briefer page as the article page.
- I can appreciate anyone thinking that is a strange way of going about creating a final article so I can not fault anyone for taking what is there at face value. I very much appreciate your understanding and action in restoring the article and giving me a chance to complete it in line with my plan. In return, I will make the best effort I can to finish the article according to the plan I have outlined as fast as I can. Leaving the article as it is, or even a bit longer, will just invite others to try to cut it down.
- A reason for this project taking awhile to complete is that I wrote new articles for the approximately 30 generals who had no articles about them when I took over the list. Since all the generals will have articles, I feel better about cutting out much of the information in the notes.
- The list had been abandoned by the original editors and has been finished by User:IcarusPhoenix as to Union Generals and almost finished as to Confederate Generals by me. While I think the effort is useful overall, I must admit to some slight embarrassment in having the article get so long and out of hand. IcarusPhoenix avoided this problem through adept use of abbreviations and not including many links - or linkable items - and limiting the types of entries he made in the notes. Perhaps I should have followed his example from the outset because I expect to end up with a similar product.
- I don't think it would be a bad article to have even at its greatest length. A shorter list with more basic information and links to the main articles on the generals is more in keeping with what we would normally expect to have on Wikipedia. So that should be the end result.
- Thanks. Donner60 (talk) 03:03, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
Suggestion to Split Article
Please do not split this article. It will greatly diminish its usefulness by making it more difficult to do comparisons or to find the ranks or other basic information for several generals for articles or other purposes. As I noted above, my plan is to complete a comprehensive set of notes, then to remove most of them, leaving just the basic categories. This is taking a little time because of the need to maintain or edit some other articles which have inaccurate information on generals, Union and Confederate, that require revision. While it seems strange to put a large amount of information in an article, then remove it, there is some method to this. I set out only to put some important information in the notes but I began to add enough points to produce mini-sketches. When I realized the article would likely get too long, I thought I could create a comprehensive short reference page, which would remain in the history, and cut the number of kilobytes back by reducing the article to basic categories. Consider that the thumbnail sketches - which I do not care about but which other interested editors wish to retain - takes some memory, as does the table formatting. Also, many links can be later removed. Readers will not be looking at a list of this type to read it from end to end. Most of them will be looking at it for basic and comparative information. It will be in that shape, and nothing more except for the thumbnail photos, in the near future if a little more patience can be maintained. The end result as a single article should be better and more useful than a number of articles with just a fraction of the list. Donner60 (talk) 02:22, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
The article Nadja Peulen has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- No indication of how this might meet notability guidelines. Lacks citations to significant coverage in reliable sources. No claim of notability.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. RadioFan (talk) 02:16, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Longest Articles
A tag has been placed on Longest Articles, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect to an article talk page, file description page, file talk page, MediaWiki page, MediaWiki talk page, category talk page, portal talk page, template talk page, help talk, user page, user talk or special page from the main/article space.
If you can fix the redirect to point to a mainspace page, please do so and remove the speedy deletion tag. However, please do not remove the speedy deletion tag unless you are fixing the redirect. If you think the redirect should be retained as is for some reason, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}
) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the article's talk page directly to give your reasons. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. DASHBot (talk) 18:11, 17 March 2012 (UTC)

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, List of 1000 Ways to Die episodes Season 3 (2010). First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - List of 1000 Ways to Die episodes Season 3. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at List of 1000 Ways to Die episodes Season 3 - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.
If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Nolelover Talk·Contribs 04:21, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

- I'm not in PHX anymore, sorry.--Jax 0677 (talk) 17:57, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
- In that case, I invite you to organize or join a Wiknic wherever home is now :)--Pharos (talk) 18:06, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a search with the contents of The Andy Griffith Show (season 1), and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: List of The Andy Griffith Show episodes. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.
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. MadmanBot (talk) 02:54, 11 May 2012 (UTC)
- Please remember to provide proper attribution when splitting articles, at a minimum your initial edit of the new article should indicate where you split the content from, and ideally you should also add either {{split to}} or {{copied}} templates on the talk page. See: Wikipedia:Splitting#Procedure, second paragraph. Monty845 15:43, 13 May 2012 (UTC)

Sexuality in ancient Rome
Could you please leave some very specific comments on the talk page of Sexuality in ancient Rome about which sections should be shortened and/or spun off? Otherwise, the tag isn't very helpful to either readers or to editors who want to address the problem. The page has quite high reader ratings, so I'd need some guidance in how to serve readers better. Cynwolfe (talk) 15:44, 26 May 2012 (UTC)

Template:Simon Property Group
Just letting you know that Template:Simon Property Group wasn't complete when it was made. Navboxen can only have up to 20 lines, but Simon has a mall in nearly every state = even just getting up to Ohio overloads the template. Any suggestion? Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 03:11, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
- ETA: How about making it regional instead of by state? It could probably be split into four templates corresponding to the regions on this map. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 03:33, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
- I split the template four ways here. Tell me what you think. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 04:17, 10 June 2012 (UTC)

Wrong Onan
Hello. The Template:Cummins you added to the Onan article was misplaced and removed. That article is about the biblical person. See Onan_(disambiguation). There does not appear to be an Onan (generators) article yet.

- I just created the template that you recommended for deletion. I wish people would check to see how many articles could potentially be placed in a template before they recommend it for deletion, or else create the template themselves.--Jax 0677 (talk) 14:46, 24 June 2012 (UTC)

Please read WP:NSONGS. Just because a song charted doesn't mean it's notable. Especially if it only spent one week at #57. I really doubt you're going to get enough out of a Colt Ford song. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 21:42, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
- Also, merge discussion. Again, just because a song charted doesn't mean it's inherently notable. Not every song needs an article, especially if there's little to say about it other than its peak. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 21:49, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

- Are you even listening to the "no sources" part of my argument? The article has to have multiple, reliable sources or it can't exist. Period. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 04:00, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
- "Mr. Goodtime" has Billboard and Amazon as sources, which IMHO are multiple (plural) and reliable. This is how I got the ranking and track order. They are both independent, although not overly detailed. The video contains a whole lot of details, albeit not independent. Though produced in part by Ford, the video is what it is, much can be deemed as factual. This discussion would not have taken place had sufficient research been done before filing the TfD to determine whether or not there existed a sufficient number of potential articles about Ford (albeit, hindsight is 20/20). I suppose we can lump the video details into the album articles though, which is fine by me. Thanks!--Jax 0677 (talk) 04:23, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
- Amazon is not a reliable source for the context of an article. The sources have to be substantial and independent of the subject. As I said, reviews of the single on Roughstock, The Boot, Taste of Country, etc. are fine. Likewise, reviews of the album on Allmusic, Country Standard Time, etc. are fine if the critic says something about the song in them. For instance, this works for She Likes to Ride in Trucks, and this one for Chicken & Biscuits. That is the kind of stuff that a single article needs if it's going to stand a chance.

- What do you mean? I withdrew the TFD, since I feel that Declaration of Independence is close enough to release that it barely makes the template worth keeping. The template's not going to be deleted now. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 00:07, 9 July 2012 (UTC)
- Whoops. That was an error on my part. I forgot that the TFD closure templates default to "delete" unless you make a certain edit to cancel out the "delete" part — I just forgot to cancel it out. The result was indeed "withdrawn", so the template will be kept. I'm not an admin, so I can't delete anything. The Colt Ford template is safe.

Why have you put the copied template onto this talk page? This is for when you copy a section of an article out of another article, which you did not do here. Also when you use the template, you are supposed to fill in the parameters of the template.
Furthermore, I notice that you are putting a lot of split templates on articles, especially some very large articles. If you feel strongly that these articles hould be split, have you actually tried splitting any? I ask, because in many cases, splitting is not really the answer. In many cases, the articles are indiscriminate lists and the answer would be to prune the lists rather than split them and just move the problem to 2 articles instead of one. Op47 (talk) 20:33, 18 July 2012 (UTC)
- Dear Op47:
- Someone told me on my talk page, that when splitting pages, that at a minimum, I should state in the edit summaries of the original and new articles that I am splitting the page, and ideally should place templates at the top of the two talk pages (this warns users that the page was split off or split from something so it will not be improperly deleted). I found out about these rules only after I split several articles.
- I have split several articles, including List_of_The_Andy_Griffith_Show_episodes among others. Before splitting pages, I have asked for consensus and have allowed one week for discussion. If enough people object, I will NOT split the article. If enough people support splitting (or if only one or zero users respond with Oppose), then I split the article.--Jax 0677 (talk) 12:58, 19 July 2012 (UTC)
- Hello Jax 0677:
- First of all, an appology, I hadn't realised that you had split List of pipeline accidents in the United States from List of pipeline accidents. I thought you were trying to split List of pipeline accidents in the United States. Sorry.
- Secondly, the reason why I thought you were having problems is that the template has parameters that you are supposed to fill in. If you knew that and just forgot on this occasion then I don't wish to labour the point. On the other hand, if I am not making sense then let me know and I will try and explain.
- Thirdly, you policy on dealing with splits sounds reasonable. I think I see it from a different point of view because I tend to look at the backlog of split tags and if there's little or no discussion then I am sometimes left trying to decide what's right. If I see that its one of your tags then in future I'll try and talk. regards Op47 (talk) 18:14, 20 July 2012 (UTC)

I have put an answer to your split proposal. Recently, I split August 2010 in sports (and even then it was only an intermediate step to cutting down the article) and I noticed the following: People who had shown no intrest in the article before splitting (when it was in an absolutely disgraceful condition) queued up to askfor one of the split articles to be deleted. While I have no real objection to you splitting the article, it is not something that I would wish on you. Which ever way you go. you will have my support on this one, and the best of luck. The article should never have got into this state in the first place. Op47 (talk) 19:51, 20 July 2012 (UTC)
Brady Seals
Sorry, I didn't think of adding the Hot Apple Pie content instead. However, you should be more careful: you were linking to The Truth instead of The Truth (Brady Seals album). Please double check any links you put in a navbox. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 16:48, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
- Hot Apple Pie was in the template when I created it with 6 articles. I'll do my best to check my links. Thank you.--Jax 0677 (talk) 17:18, 21 July 2012 (UTC)

Your contributed article, List of One Direction band members
Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, List of One Direction band members. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - One Direction. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at One Direction - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.
If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Best regards, Cindy(talk to me) 06:35, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
