criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing no content to the reader. Please note that external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article don't count as content. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify
their content.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that
talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Kingpin13 (talk) 11:16, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply

WTF This is not true I have the book in front of me and copyed it out from the Book, this website just gets more and more lame..

Hello LordNatonstan, I'd like to welcome you, first, as it appears nobody has done so yet.

. It should be noted that forums, personal sites, fan sites, and things like IMDB or tv.com are not considered reliable news sources.
Additionally, Wikipedia has a very strict
copyright policy for obvious reasons. You cannot simply copy and paste information from other sites into articles, or to create new articles, as you did with Hollywood Causes Cancer (which is a word-for-word copy/paste from this site. Also, if a flag is placed on the article, you should not simply remove it as you did here
, without fixing the issues, as that is keeping the copyright violation on the site. I've restored the copyright violation tag, and I encourage you to find a way to word the article in your own words, without copying from any other sites, or it is likely to be deleted.
It would be a good idea to go through the
manual of style to help you with learning. I hope this helps you understand a bit more about editing, and feel free to ask at the help desk if you have any questions. Cheers! Ariel♥Gold 07:17, 23 May 2009 (UTC)[reply
But I never copied it from any site I simply used the Information form the back cover of the book... Just because a site also has done this doesn't mean I've copied it from that site, that's why I'm annoyed LordNatonstan (talk) 15:41, 23 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It is word-for-word from the above URL, whether that website also copied it from a book cover or not, so you could not possibly have used your own words. Whether you copied it word-for-word from the back of a book, or from a website does not matter. The fact remains, you copied it and it is a
copyright violation. It needs to be changed, please, or the article will risk deletion. Ariel♥Gold 16:16, 23 May 2009 (UTC)[reply
