Speedy deletion nomination of The Eli Whitney Students Program

A tag has been placed on The Eli Whitney Students Program, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information. You may also 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), 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.

November 2009

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not add promotional material to articles or other Wikipedia pages, as you did to Eli Whitney Students Program. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" is strongly discouraged. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.Template:Do not delete arunkumar^{checkmate me} 05:36, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Eli Whitney Student Program, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. Eagles 24/7 (C) 05:45, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Your addition to Eli Whitney Students Program has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of article content such as sentences or images. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. —C.Fred (talk) 05:46, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Even if you had indicated that all of the text was direct quotations, it should have been written in original text, not by stringing together the words of the Yale website and campus paper. —C.Fred (talk) 05:54, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, we would like to remind you not to attack other editors, as you did on User:Milkbaba.

The box above is a template. This is a personal message. You have been blocked for disruptive behavior, which included persistent recreation of a page which constituted a copyright violation, as well as offensive user page. Please examine Wikipedia:Copyright violations and relevant pages linked in the infobox on the right, as well as Wikipedia:Civility. Once you feel ready to comply with those basic rules of wikipedia, you may request an unblock as outlined above. Materialscientist (talk) 06:37, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

{{unblock| I have now read the rules for copyrighted materials and will comply with them. I am working on the Eli Whitney Students Page to ensure that a future version will conform to all Wikipedia copyright and citation rules. I will also refrain from offensive and/or slanderous comments against others in the future. Thank you
