[edit] MUS2301

MUS2301 (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

The author removed User:Seattlenow's prod, which read, "Self-promotion of artist and projects (Three paper clips (album), The Beatles White Album (album), MUS2301) that don't seem to meet WP:MUSIC--myspace/youtube/personalsite/home/school performance/distro only." I would add that there is an apparent conflict of interest (the COI bot found this article) and there are way too many links to the homepage, myspace and youtube.

  • Delete Fails WP:MUSIC. All references point to their own website. Jauerback 15:57, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per lack of "significant coverage from independent sources" - No hits on google news archive Corpx 20:26, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete From searches, appears not to be attributable to independent, non-trivial third parties. Youtube and Myspace are not non-trivial and in this case are not independent. Edited to add sig. --Charlene 21:52, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep This is not a music group. It is an international, collective, model for education. Gratuitious links were removed.--Kriista 02:11, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Still no coverage from independent sources Corpx 16:33, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
  • The webpage the text comes from, and is linking to, is not copyrighted. It is in the public domain.--Kriista 17:49, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
  • As there is no notice on the site releasing it into the public domain, we must assume that it has been copyrighted. --Tim4christ17 talk 01:15, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
  • The assumtion is incorrect. I am the author of the text/webpage, and it is in the public domain. Furthermore, the lack of independant sourcing is intrinsic to the nature of the subject. It is a community run, small-scale, model for education. It does, however, include among its members a renowned recording artist --Kriista 02:30, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Unfortunately, we don't know that you are the author. There are two ways to confirm that the text is in the public domain - you can put a notice to that effect on the webpage itself or you can follow the procedures at Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission#When permission is confirmed. Unless one of these is effected, we must assume that the copyright is NOT in the public domain. Sorry. --Tim4christ17 talk 04:14, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
  • I would note that there are several other rationales for deletion listed here which appear to justify deletion, not just the copyright problems. --Tim4christ17 talk 04:14, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
  • The webpage now has the appropriate text releasing it into the public domain. I know there are other reasons, that is why speedy delete seemed wholly unnecessary, especially persuing it to the degree that you have. I have also addressed the other regarding the deletion. The webpage does not satisfy WP:MUSIC, but it is not a music group. It does not satisfy independantly verifyable sources, but that is the nature of the collective. If it is still deemed deletable for that reason, it is fine, but it would be unfortunate, because what makes Wiki great is the 'in between the cracks' articles that you can't find information on elsewhere.--Kriista 11:44, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Thank you for adding the notice.  :) Sorry if I appeared to be obsessing over it, but it's important to keep Wikipedia free of Copyright violations. --Tim4christ17 talk 18:29, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep this page is benign and poses no threat to Wikipedia.--Sergiogato 11:53, July 16 2007 (GMT-5:00) — Sergiogato (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
