- Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Manual of Style
- 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 Betti-Sue Hertz, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.ybca.org/staff/betti-sue-hertz.
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. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) CorenSearchBot (talk) 00:04, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Betti-Sue Hertz

A tag has been placed on Betti-Sue Hertz, 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.ybca.org/staff/betti-sue-hertz. (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. GILO A&E⇑ 00:09, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

- If you'd like to rewrite the page, you should go to Articles for creation. This will let you work on the page in a draft instead of a "live" article. Plus, you can submit it for review so others can check if it meets Wikipedia's requirements. If you have any questions about this, please respond below with a notification.

Advice
[edit]You seem to have restarted the article, but used it to say
- "I am new to wikipedia and would like to redo this page on Betti-Sue Hertz with more references and more detail about her life. Betti-Sue Hertz is an extremely accomplished and influential curator with a 30 plus year career at major US institutions. The list of the institutions where she worked overlapped with a bio online that also listed them. This can be rewritten so it doesn't infringe on any copyright violations but is hardly a reason to do a speedy deletion for this entry.
- Please let me know what to do next as I want to continue with this and will be more mindful as I proceed.
- Thank you. I would like feedback as I proceed."
That's not the place to ask that; so, as reviewing administrator, I copied the information here and deleted it. You are certainly welcome to rewrite the article. But it must be rewritten in your own words, and not copied or directly paraphrased from an existing website or other publication (when an article is entirely or mostly a copyvio, we must delete it, but this does not foreclose an article on the topic). As the previous notice said, the place to do this is at Articles for Creation.
When doing this, I call your attention to the 3 possible relevant standards for notability: WP:GNG, our general standard requiring references providing substantial coverage from third-party independent reliable sources, not press releases or mere announcements; WP:NAUTHOR, for notability based on her writings, which essentially requires substantial published reviews of her books, WP:PROF, for someone who can be shown to be an academically recognized authority. Unfortunately, I must advise you that museum curators even though important in their profession often do not receive the necessary sources, and it is consequently rather difficult to have them accepted here. The most likely route might be NAUTHOR. DGG ( talk ) 23:18, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
