|text          = A tag has been placed on [[:{{{pg|{{{1}}}}}}]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#G12|section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the page appears to be an unambiguous [[Wikipedia:Copyright violations|copyright infringement]]. {{ {{{|safesubst:}}}#if: {{{2|{{{url|{{{url1|}}}}}}}}}| This page appears to be a direct copy from {{{2|{{{url|{{{url1|}}}}}}}}}{{{{{|safesubst:}}}#if: {{{url2|}}}|{{{{{|safesubst:}}}#if: {{{url3|}}}|, {{{url2|}}}, and {{{url3|}}}|<nowiki> </nowiki>and {{{url2|}}}}}|}}.|}} For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material 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 [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked from editing]]'''.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you ''must'' verify that externally by one of the processes explained at [[Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials]]. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see [[Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission]] for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at [[Wikipedia:Copyrights|Wikipedia's copyright policy]] for more details, or ask a question [[Wikipedia:Help desk|here]].
