Speedy deletion nomination of Brahmapureeswarar
[edit]
A tag has been placed on Brahmapureeswarar requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
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 that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. — Timneu22 · talk 12:28, 10 August 2010 (UTC)
- I have removed this speedy deletion tag because I think you have expanded the article to the point where it no longer applies. Thparkth (talk) 21:06, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://rajamala.wordpress.com/2010/05/15/tirupattur-brahmapureeswarar-koil/.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page.

Speedy deletion nomination of Chandraprabha Aitwal
[edit]A tag has been placed on Chandraprabha Aitwal requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. 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.
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. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
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 that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay.

We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Chandraprabha Aitwal, but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material.

- I have read your note on the talk page, but I am afraid that just asserting permission to use is not enough: it is essential to follow one of the steps explained above. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 19:44, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
Copyright release notice on website
[edit]I believe the copyright release you have added to the website is adequate, but to be 100% certain, could you modify it to use the exact words in Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials:
The text of this website is available for modification and reuse under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-Sharealike 3.0 Unported License and the GNU Free Documentation License (unversioned, with no invariant sections, front-cover texts, or back-cover texts)
That will put it beyond doubt, and will save me having to check with the experts, who have a big backlog to deal with. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 13:03, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
Freemasonry in India
[edit]As best I can tell, we are talking about two different GLs - one founded in 1961 in the UGLE schema, and the other in 2001 in GLB. You are confusing the two of them, and merging info into one body, which is incorrect. Please do not make that edit again. MSJapan (talk) 18:06, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
