Ecstatic love for Krishna

Hello Omnidexterous,

It seems to me that an article you worked on, Ecstatic love for Krishna, may be copied from http://vedabase.com/en/nod/27. It's entirely possible that I made a mistake, but I wanted to let you know because Wikipedia is strict about copying from other sites.

It's important that you edit the article and rewrite it in your own words, unless you're absolutely certain nothing in it is copied. If you're not sure how to fix the problem or have any questions, there are people at the help desk who are happy to assist you.

Thank you for helping build a free encyclopedia! MadmanBot (talk) 11:56, 22 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Issue resolved by rewriting a problematic sentence in own words Omnidexterous (talk) 12:06, 22 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The page Ecstatic love for Krishna has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the content of the page appeared to be blatant advertising which only promoted something, and which was unlikely to be suitable for an article (or at best would need a fundamental rewrite). Wikipedia is not a medium for promotion of anything, whether a company, product, group, service, person, religious or political belief, or anything else. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item G11, as well as the guidelines on spam. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Some small changes added to the article. Are these changes enough to avoid label "advertising or promotion"? Another question: who has the right to remove copyright issue label: only admins can remove that label or can I remove that label myself? Omnidexterous (talk) 14:23, 22 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

While there were some copyright and advertising issues in the article, my main concern is that the article is just not suitable to be on the site, as it does not seem to have notability. Just one website isn't enough for that. Unless you can find further mentions elsewhere I would try to find something more suitable to work on. Wizardman 14:41, 22 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Google search for string "Ecstatic love" krishna returns 23500 websites containing this keyword. So it is not one website. And the website vedabase.net which was cited in the article is the official page of ISKCON holy scriptures. The article described the highest spiritual state in ISKCON organization, ecstatic love for Krishna is the ultimate goal for ISKCON members which means that ecstatic love for Krishna has encyclopedic importance. Can you please explain more detailed why the ultimate goal for ISKCON members which is described in ISKCON holy scriptures is considered to have "no notability"?
