I have had to further delete U Roberto (Robin) Romano as a verbatim copy / paste of http://facesoffreedom.rugmark.org/roberto-romano.php http://humanrights.uconn.edu/resources/romano.php and http://mediavoicesforchildren.org/?page_id=141.

If you can demonstrate permission as described above, we can restore the article. Otherwise, I must caution you in clear terms about any further copy / pasting of content without authorization, as any further occurrence will lead to a removal of your editing privileges.

I would like to encourage you to review our copyright policies before editing any further. Regards, MLauba (talk) 11:18, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Faces of Freedom

A tag has been placed on Faces of Freedom, 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.
