OK, well, whilst he may well be an accomplished and experienced lawyer, I don't think that anything contained within the article put forward sufficient notability to merit inclusion- have a read of this guide to notability. _GB^T/C 07:43, 25 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, and having a username the same as the person you're writing about is pretty indicative of a conflict of interest which is generally a bit of a no-no. _GB^T/C 07:50, 25 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The theory could be interesting, but you need to be sure that it doesn't constitute original research - have a read of this page for information. I would be happy to send you a copy of what you wrote, but you need to enable email on your account (use the "my preferences" bit at the top of the screen). _GB^T/C 08:07, 25 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'll email you the text shortly - no, you won't get spam (I, or any other user, can't see what your email address is - it's handled by Wikipedia itself). When you're replying to comments, please add your new comments below your old one (like I am on this page) - don't overwrite your old comments...it helps to see the threads of a conversation. _GB^T/C 08:21, 25 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

And please don't add your comments at the top of the page - find the place on the page where your previous comments were and add them there. In answer to your question, that person is included because the consensus is that they satisfy the criteria of notability relating to sportsmen. _GB^T/C 08:25, 25 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

OK - one more thing is that if you're writing on a talk page (of a user or an article) then it's good to sign your comments - just type in four tildes "~" at the end of your comment and the machine will automatically turn it into your signature. It makes it easier to see who said what. _GB^T/C 08:27, 25 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Probably not - the precise criteria are "Competitors and coaches who have competed in a high-level, fully professional league (i.e. Major League Baseball, National Football League), or a competition of equivalent standing in a non-league sport such as swimming, golf or tennis. Competitors and coaches who have competed at the highest level in amateur sports (who meet the general criteria of secondary sources published about them).". _GB^T/C 08:31, 25 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well (a) I don't write the rules, and (b) if you don't like the article, propose it for deletion using one of the methods here. _GB^T/C 08:39, 25 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure. Probably the best way to go about it is to create it as a sub-page of your userspace initially (so, for example, at User:Diegoarcher/Testing, then get a bit of input from other people as to its suitability, then move it across to the main space when it's ready. _GB^T/C 09:56, 25 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Berry Appleman & Leiden LLP

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Berry Appleman & Leiden LLP, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.usabal.com/AboutUs/OurHistory.aspx.

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. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

Speedy deletion nomination of Berry Appleman & Leiden LLP

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 Berry Appleman & Leiden LLP 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 {{hang on}} 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 hang-on 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. ttonyb (talk) 00:05, 13 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
