Speedy deletion of The Big Picture (production company)

A tag has been placed on The Big Picture (production company), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read our the guidelines on spam as well as the Wikipedia:Business' FAQ for more information.

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 (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

George Lang (cinematographer)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of George Lang (cinematographer), and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://bssc.sel.sony.com/BroadcastandBusiness/minisites/cinealta/reel/glang_bio.shtml. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and 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 and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page.

Comment - Hey Jgowdey first thank you for your contributions. However, sorry to say, I tagged your article on George Lang (cinematographer) with a copy right violation. In writing the piece large portions of it were cut and pasted from this web site [1]. I’ll give you a day or two to correct. However, if it is not correct by tomorrow, I will have to tag for speedy deletion under copy right violations. Need any help, just let me know. Shoessss | Chat 15:11, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

George Lang article

Hi there, thanks for not immediately flagging the article for deletion. Any advice you'd offer on improving/reorganizing it? I know the re-edit process must be pretty straightforward, but I'm rather new to Wikipedia; any tips you have would be appreciated. jgowdey

Comment – No problem – by the way, nice work on the article. Welcome to Wikipedia and hopefully, this is not the last time we see you here. Shoessss | Chat 00:02, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

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.
