Do you have a wp:coi with any topic realted to Prince Abdulrahman Ibrahima Ibn Sori? Slatersteven (talk) 12:01, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Could you explain? However I am sure I do not. Royals of America (talk) 12:07, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Are you in any way connected to him? Slatersteven (talk) 12:08, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am not personaly connected to Prince Abdul Rahman but do know many of the decendants from the southern and eastern regions of the United States. Royals of America (talk) 16:44, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Knowing them is a COI. Slatersteven (talk) 10:04, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I read Terry Alfords' (Prince Among Slaves) and have been researching Prince Abdul Rahman and his descendant's. African American's of the diaspora, history has been lost unable to trace their beginnings or maintain their lineage. I'm fascinated with their story and journey and wondered why there was not more information about this family on Wikipedia, but it appears I am hit with resistance and right out underlined racism.

No you are hit with wp:policy and wP:agf if you are going to play the racist card I am going to stop trying to eange with you. Slatersteven (talk) 16:26, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I was not speaking to any your responses but rather a different response that I received. If someone states that Prince Abdul Rahman had no Royal Lineage and was from a warlord . The under tone is racist in my opinion. I have no dog in this nor am I trying to fight with others . I just wanted to know if decedants of Prince Abdul Rahman were consider having notability . That to me was yes or no . I would have deleted my post if I could from all the negativity. Your responses have always been respectful . Thank you Royals of America (talk) 17:03, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of File:HRH Princess Karen Chatman.jpeg

A tag has been placed on File:HRH Princess Karen Chatman.jpeg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a copyright violation of https://www.totalprestigemagazine.com/her-royal-highness-princess-karen-of-the-house-of-sori-a-princess-of-the-people/ and has no credible claim of fair use or permission. 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — 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's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
