The Still Life (2007 film)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of The Still Life (2007 film), and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://emol.org/film/archives/stilllife/index.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists.

You can't use copyright material anyway (see above), but it's also full of unsourced spammy claims

awards listed first
title in caps
unsourced claim this poignant drama
unsourced claim Miller gained an even deeper appreciation for art
unsourced claim to create an entertainment powerhouse

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.

Speedy deletion nomination of God’s Reasons

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 God’s Reasons, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

It appears to be a clear copyright infringement of http://www.elyrics.net/read/d/darius-rucker-lyrics/god_s-reasons-lyrics.html. (See section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
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. However, even if you use one of these processes to release copyrighted material to Wikipedia, it still needs to comply with the other policies and guidelines to be eligible for inclusion. If you would like any assistance with this, you can ask a question at the help desk.
It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, 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. (See section A7 of 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 this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, 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 from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Proposed deletion of Joel A. Miller

The article Joel A. Miller has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (August 5)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Eagleash was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of films). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

IMDb does not assist in establishing notability.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to User:Rifken/sandbox and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to User:Rifken/sandbox, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

User:Rifken/Memoir of a Roadie

I have moved what was User:Rifken to User:Rifken/Memoir of a Roadie. Your user poage should contain (if anything it is optional) a description of you as a Wikipedia editor. This can include brief biographical content, lists of Articles crested or edited, Wikipedia to-do lists, statements about Wikipedia interests or views on policy ort philosophy, and so on. See WP:USERPAGE for details on what can and should nto be included. A user page should not be a draft or start for an article, nor look as if it were a draft. Thus, an infobox, a stub tag, and a reference list are all inappropriate on a user page. DES ^(talk)_{DESiegel Contribs} 20:14, 6 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Noting that there is a current entry The Still Life (2006 film), which is a redirect to Joel A. Miller.

The Still Life (2007 film) moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, The Still Life (2007 film), is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:13, 23 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I've moved this back to drafts, because according to your user page you have a conflict of interest (COI) regarding the subject, and you should therefore wait for the AfC review process to complete.

Speaking of which, you need to formally disclose your COI, for this subject and any other that you have, are, or intend to be working on where the same applies (at least Joel A. Miller and Memoir of a Roadie). I will post a separate message below with more info and instructions. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:17, 23 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Rifken. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam#External link spamming);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:17, 23 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: The Still Life (2007 film) (November 24)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Hoary was:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

What has been said -- in reliable sources, of course -- about this movie?

Hoary (talk) 22:53, 24 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I spent hours on Wikipedia with editors in a wikipedia chat forum working on the page. The film was released and the articles giving the film in-depth and reliable reviews are now posted. The film was mostly reviewed through paper media as that was the norm at the time of the release of the film. As many of the articles about the film are in publications that are themselves on Wikipedia I would find them quite credible. Many of them are also the leading publications in Film. I did provide page number, month, and year if anyone chooses to contact the publications they will find information on the articles. The film was released by Warner Bros. so it is not like it was a boutique film done in someone's bedroom fyi.
