Speedy deletion nomination of Last Post Association[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Last Post Association, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

It 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 encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
It appears to be a clear copyright infringement. (See section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
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. However, even if you use one of these processes to release copyrighted material to Wikipedia, it still needs to comply with the other policies and guidelines to be eligible for inclusion. If you would like any assistance with this, you can ask a question at the help desk.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. —Theo polisme 15:49, 11 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Antoon Verschoot[edit]

The article Antoon Verschoot has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. -- Patchy1 02:48, 15 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Alice Eckenstein[edit]

You placed the artikel in de-Wikipedia and gave "Basler Zeitung" as reference. Could you please give more details, e.g. date and content of the article. Currently, it is not clearly shown, why A. eckenstein should be listed in Wikipedia. --Alpöhi (talk) 11:41, 6 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

hello Alpöhi,

I don't know wikipedia very well; i think it's complicated... for me anyway. I don't know where to reach you !? I suppose it is here (?) The article appeared in the Bazler Zeitung from 30 januari 1980 when the city of Bazel celebrated the 90th birthday of Alice Eckenstein. My grandfather was 1 of the 1400 children she saved. I have many lettres written and signed by her in 1916-1918 here at home. the picture of her tomb was taken by me in 2011.

best regards,

bruno voeten Lier belgium

Hello bruno voeten Lier, thanks for the answer and the date of the article in the Basler Zeitung. That helps a bit, I added the adte to the articles in english and german Wikipedai: en:Alice Eckenstein, de:Alice Eckenstein. I don't know much details about the english wikipedia, but in the german edition, we have quite strict rules about who and what is relevant to have an own articel in wikipedia, see de:WP:RK. Up to now, in the article is not clearly shown, why she is relevant for wikipedia. If you have more public material, details of ther Basler-Zeitung-Article (title?) etc. that would help. The letters you privately own, are not helpfull, as we can only refer to public available information. Best regards, --Alpöhi (talk) 09:53, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Alpöhi, I have a scan of the article from the Basler Zeitung; and also an article from another Basel newspaper (NNZ newspaper, i don't know the full name...). Can i do something with that ? I have sent a letter to the heirs of Alice Eckenstein > Matthias Eckenstein to ask permission for an eventual publication on wikipedia of 2 or 3 letters of Alice E.that i have here at home. it is not helpfull you think ? It takes a lot of space too on 1 page, no? Greetings ! Bruno Voeten, Lier, Belgium.
