== When creating articles... == |
|||
...Can you please add categories? It makes it so much easier for people viewing Wikipedia to find the subject if they can't remember the name. Please take this on board, it is vital, as I have noticed you haven't seemed to have taken in points I or other editors have made. Thanks and happy editing! - [[User:Erebus555|Erebus555]] ([[User talk:Erebus555|talk]]) 20:58, 6 January 2008 (UTC) |

A '''[[Template:prod|proposed deletion]]''' template has been added to the article [[Darcy Flynn]], suggesting that it be deleted according to the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion]] process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Criteria for inclusion|criteria for inclusion]], and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "[[Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not|What Wikipedia is not]]" and [[Wikipedia:Deletion policy|Wikipedia's deletion policy]]). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the <code>{{tl|dated prod}}</code> notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on [[Talk:Darcy Flynn|its talk page]]. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the [[WP:PROD|proposed deletion process]], the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion criteria]] or it can be sent to [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|Articles for Deletion]], where it may be deleted if [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add <code>{{tl|db-author}}</code> to the top of [[Darcy Flynn]]. <!-- Template:PRODWarning --> [[User:Slakr|<span style="color:teal;font-weight:bold;">slakr</span>]]<small><sup>\ [[User talk:Slakr|talk]] /</sup></small> 16:40, 17 January 2008 (UTC) |

== Categories == |
|||
Hi. When you create a new page, can you add a relevant category to it please? There is currently a backlog of >5500 pages that need categories (see [[:Category:Category needed]]). If you could add categories to your pages, this would help keep the backlog to a minimum. Cheers [[User:Nouse4aname|Nouse4aname]] ([[User talk:Nouse4aname|talk]]) 20:37, 17 January 2008 (UTC) |

- Tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on ask me on my talk page, or ask your question and then place {{helpme}}

Whale tails need your help
I have trying to put together a comprehensive story of the Porsche 911 whale tail rear spoilers. But, the without much prior knowledge, the more I am delving into the stuff the ore I am getting lost. May be you can help. Take a look, please. Aditya(talk • contribs) 15:11, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

Username!
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!
I hope not to seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but I noticed your username, and I am concerned that it might not meet Wikipedia's username policy for the following reason: It's a bit weird and confuseing!. After you look over that policy, could we discuss that concern here?
I'd appreciate learning your own views, for instance your reasons for wanting this particular name, and what alternative username you might accept that avoids raising this concern.
You have several options freely available to you:
- If you can relieve my concern through discussing it here, I can stop worrying about it.
- If the two of us can't agree here, we can ask for help through Wikipedia's dispute resolution process, such as requesting comments from other Wikipedians. Wikipedia administrators usually abide by agreements reached through this process.
- You can keep your contributions history under a new username. Visit Wikipedia:Changing username and follow the guidelines there.
Thank you. --86.29.248.179 (talk) 19:13, 15 August 2008 (UTC)--86.29.248.179 (talk) 19:14, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
