 This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of International Institute for Asian Studies, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://213.207.98.211/about-iias. 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 talk) 08:16, 8 September 2010 (UTC) ]
Speedy deletion nomination of International Institute for Asian Studiessection G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. 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.
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. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

Conflict of interest & username problem
There are two issues with this:
- You may have a neutral point of viewpolicy, you must exercise great caution when editing on topics related to your organization.
- Your account changing your username to avoid giving the impression that your personal account is being used for promotional purposes.
Regardless of whether you change your name or create a new account, you are not exempted from the guideline to avoid editing where you have a conflict of interest. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see
Uploading photos
I can see you have been attempting to add images to an article. Once you have resolved your account name problem above, you may wish to look at the following tips.
The best way of uploading photos is to go to
Additional points to note:
- Logging in - you have to have an account on Commons, this may have already been created under the same name and password as your Wikipedia account, see Special:MergeAccount.
- Copyright - if the copyright of the photo is owned by someone else and there is no existing free license to reference (for example on their website), then you need to follow the List of countries' copyright length.
- Emailing - see Wikipedia:Contact us/Photo submission. You should note that there may be a long backlog and your email may take days or weeks before getting processed. If you seem technically able, you may get a polite request to do it yourself as this is a low priority for the OTRS volunteers.
- EXIF- image data may be automatically added by the camera or by your photo processing applications. This will be visible after upload so make sure you are happy that the make of camera, when/where it was taken etc. will be consistent with your upload information.
- Verification - the photo can be checked using TinEye after upload, so if it appears on websites which claim 'All right reserved' or similar then it may get marked for deletion.
