Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Will H. Dixon
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Copyright-problem.svg/48px-Copyright-problem.svg.png)
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 Draft:Will H. Dixon requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/143687702/william-h-dixon. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material 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 or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.
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 "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 deleted 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.

- There is no copyright infringement, I am the author of the https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/143687702/william-h-dixon. And if I can't use content in which I created then delete the page. Stop asking individuals to contribute content and hire professionals to do it. and you have this problem. Lawrencehlevens (talk) 13:26, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
- You may be the author but you do NOT hold the copyright. The Findagrave website is not a reliable source and the page clearly states at the bottom Copyright © 2024 Find a Grave® You will need to use the original sources not your own version of events. We are all volunteers here like you, we are not professional writers. Theroadislong (talk) 15:26, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
- I am the author and own the copyright to the content that's found on Dixon's Find-a-Grave. Through my Find-a-Grave account it was submitted. The page it's was established by a serial page establisher and I provided the content. FYI: I used the original sources, because I am (maybe you are not aware) the Custodian and Guardian of Will H. Dixon and his family's personal and professional papers, archives and musical manuscript's. So not my own version of anything. First hand primary source documents.

- In that case, you have a COI with the subject you are writing about. Please read Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide.

(talk|contribs) 00:34, 29 April 2024 (UTC)- and note that we don't use primary sources, we only use reliable secondary published sources. When you edit Find-a-Grave you give your copyright to them. Theroadislong (talk) 06:32, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
- This website has to many barriers to entry, it's too cumbersome and have to be an attorney to navigate too site. I have too much research to do to waste my time going back and forth. Not one person has said I will help you right it. That's probably against your rules too. Will H. Dixon doesn't need a Wikipedia page, his musical legacy will be just fine without it.

- It isn't possible to "right" a copyright violation without starting again. Creating a new article on Wikipedia is one of the hardest tasks there is, it is usually recommended that users get a feel for editing first for a few months. This [1] would be a useable reference to start an article about Will H. Dixon, but Find a Grave would not. Theroadislong (talk) 12:19, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
