- Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or sock puppetry.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Otmoor riots, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.oxfordtimes.co.uk/leisure/history_heritage/folklore/845449.The_Otmoor_riots/.
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.

For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material.

Removing Speedy at Otmoor riots
[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia, thank you for taking the time to create a page here. It might not have been your intention, but you recently removed a speedy deletion tag from a page you created yourself. Because Wikipedia policy does not allow the creator of the page to remove deletion tags, an automated program has replaced the deletion tag you removed from Otmoor riots. Please do not continue to remove the deletion tag, instead, if you disagree with the deletion, you can follow these steps:
- Go to the page by clicking this link. Once there, select the button that says Click here to contest this speedy deletion.
- This will take you to the talk page, where you can make your case by explaining why the page does not meet Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion.
Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do. For further help about the deletion, you could contact the user who first placed the tag or a highly active user who is willingly to help with deletion. This message was left by a bot, so please do not contact the bot about the deletion. Thank you, - SDPatrolBot (talk) 01:24, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

Islip, Oxfordshire
[edit]Thankyou for your additions to Islip, Oxfordshire. In order to manage the material I have created a separate St Nicholas' Church, Islip article, moved the material about the parish church, Confessor's Chapel and Old Rectory there, and left only a summary in the Islip, Oxfordshire article. I have also reordered and condensed the remaining material in the original article.
I have also formatted your inline citations with full details of each of the books from which they have been digitised. This was a fiddly job, but necessary for the true sources of citations to be clear to the reader. It should also make the article look tidier. Best wishes, Motacilla (talk) 02:17, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
Boat-building at Islip
[edit]I did not retain the paragraph about boat-building in Islip, Oxfordshire because it was copied almost verbatim from "Islip". Otmoor Notice Board., which makes it a copyright violation. Also the Otmoor Notice Board fails to cite its sources, so the account is not verifiable.
However, if Islip did have a boat-building yard that may be notable local history. Compton, Hugh J. (1976). The Oxford Canal. Newton Abbot: David & Charles. pp. 31–32. ISBN 0 7153 7238 6. briefly outlines attempts at commercial boat transport on the Cherwell and the Ray which began during the English Civil War, had some success in the first half of the 18th century but seem to have petered out after the Banbury — Oxford road was turnpiked in 1755. It is a sketchy account, but research may have found more evidence in the 35 years since The Oxford Canal was published. Therefore, if you can find a verifiable historical source for Islip having a boat-building yard, either opposite the Swan Inn or anywhere else in the parish, please feel welcome to insert a brief account in an appropriate place in Islip, Oxfordshire#Economic and social history.
Thankyou, Motacilla (talk) 08:43, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
The article Gro Marie Svidal has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Gro Marie Svidal
[edit]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 Gro Marie Svidal requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, 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. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.
