Mistake

Hello, there must be a misunderstanding here. I didnt copy and paste any article, I created an article and place the content here. I didnt check the URL and it looks like that I have created similar article in simple english wikipedia. I have created both articles. You can verify those by the logs. Thank you.

Some of the content that you used here was directly copied and pasted from Ovi magazine. This is illegal and against copyright law. We can not and will not allow it here. I understand that you might not understand this but perhaps you should read copyright before continuing. Recreating an article that another administrator has deleted is not a good idea. Your article at en.wikipedia.org is also up for deletion for the same reasons. You can't just take what other people have written and call it your own and create an article with it; this is dishonest! fr33kman ^talk 04:59, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

What you did wrong

Okay, I'm going to assume that you made an honest mistake and I'm going to teach you what you did wrong. 1) You need to prove why your article should be included in a Wikipedia. If you consider that we have article about Einstein, the Holocaust and Bill Clinton, you need to explain why what you are writing needs to be considered equal to those. You do this by including thrid-party references that agree with what you are saying. This means that you use newspapers, books, documentaries and other sources to prove that what you are writing is worthy of inclusion. 2) you need to make sure that every single sentence you write is your own work and no one elses whatsoever. This means that you research your topic and write your own version of the events that you want to include. You do NOT take what others have written and copy it into your article. Doing this is an offense under the law and we can't allow that to stay on our servers. We will NOT allow this to happen. Please review the help pages and also the rules before continuing! Thanks! Good luck! fr33kman ^talk 05:12, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
