Hello, Rahulsinghpinaki, and welcome to Misplaced Pages! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Proposed deletion of Notable alumni col. brown school

The article Notable alumni col. brown school has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Consists solely of a poorly formatted list of (allegedly) notable individuals from a school that does not have a Misplaced Pages page

While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

March 2014

Hello. Your recent edit to List of notable alumni of the Colonel Brown Cambridge School appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person or organization added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Misplaced Pages's notability guideline. Thank you. Ahecht (TALK

Hello Rahulsinghpinaki, and welcome to Misplaced Pages. Your addition to List of notable alumni of the Colonel Brown Cambridge School has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Misplaced Pages, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

• You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and a cited source. You can read about this at Misplaced Pages:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
• Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Misplaced Pages:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Misplaced Pages:Copyrights. You may also want to review Misplaced Pages:Copy-paste.
• If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Misplaced Pages:Donating copyrighted materials.
• In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Misplaced Pages:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
• Also note that Misplaced Pages articles may not be copied without attribution. If you want to copy from another Misplaced Pages project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Misplaced Pages:Copying within Misplaced Pages.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Ahecht (TALK

This is your last warning. The next time you add unsourced material to Misplaced Pages, as you did at Colonel Brown Cambridge School, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. All names need sources saying they are alumni - and they need articles showing that they meet our criteria for notability. Some of these have articles but no sources they went to the school. Sources must be added to this article, not to the subject's article Dougweller (talk) 06:20, 1 April 2014 (UTC)

Hello. While the names you added to the list of notable alumni in the Colonel Brown Cambridge School article had references to sources, none of these sources indicated that the people you added attended the school. Please see the discussion on the talk page for more details. If citations which verify that the people on the list actually attended the school are not added, these entries will be deleted. Thank you. --Ahecht (TALK

Please do not add entries to the list of alumni of the Colonel Brown Cambridge School without a specific reference that states that they attended the school. Do not copy and paste long lists of references from other Misplaced Pages pages, as this violates WP:COPYWITHIN. Do not add references that do not state that the person attended the school, as this is citation overkill and will not prevent the entry from being deleted. Your entries have been removed. Please review Help:Referencing for beginners with citation templates for information on how to create proper references before re-adding this information. Thank you. --Ahecht (TALK
