Cool, the link to the page I created is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Nerd_Machine just a small stub kinda thing. So far I'm mainly looking for external references and looking at the man who created the page and the website supporters (especially celebrity ones). It may be of use to look up Nerd HQ as it was a fairly big event at this year's comic-con. And I hope I sent a message correctly.

(Yeebeme (talk) 10:09, 8 November 2011 (UTC)) Hey, I'm not sure if it'd be a good idea to mention it's a university project as Dmitri said yesterday as wikipedia may be slightly less lenient if we do.

• No!!! The link should be The Nerd Machine. If you are going to contribute to Wikipedia, at least try to use Wikipedia style. Do you seriously think that "comic con[[1]]" is a proper link? Even if you had not said it was a student project, we would have guessed. And it makes little different to our leniency or lack of it. Hints: draft your article in user:Yeebeme/sandbox and do not even think about publishing it until it contains links to significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources. Did it not cross the mind of any of you that if you are writing an article about a website, then you link to that website from the article - amazing. I have e-mailed the text to Yeebeme. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 13:19, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on The Nerd Machine, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Click here to contest this speedy deletion which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate).

Sorry, but

we don't have placeholders. Articles should be articles with information in them. A stub is a very short article for improvement, but it has to be able to stand as an article. Peridon (talk) 21:07, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
