I nominated this article for speedy deletion because it seems to be a copyright violation of material found on http://online.northumbria.ac.uk/faculties/art/humanities/cns/m-spain.html
In general it's not a good idea to create articles by simply copying and pasting from another website.
If you wish to use that material as a starting point for a better article you can create a sub page on your user page.
e.g. [[/Nancy Spain]]
Then you edit that subpage until it is no longer a copyright violation and you are happy with it, then you can simply move the material to a new article in the encyclopedia.
Take care.

The Nancy Spain material on the Northumbria U website was written by me and is my copyright. It has now been shifted to http://pages.britishlibrary.net/alan.myers in any case. I hope it can stay where it is in Wikipedia.

My integrity has been impugned by Wikipedia and I seek an apology. The deleted Nancy Spain material was written by me, and there is nothing live on the Northumbria ac.uk cns site which TheRingess quotes. It is merely a link to my present (non-profit site) at http://pages.britishlibrary.net/alan.myers
I hold the copyright on this material, and can supply written evidence from academics. I can hardly be srealing from myself! I'd like to see Nancy restored, but I shan't bother unless I get a satisfactory reply.
