Welcome to Wikipedia, Cherane! I am Kodster and have been editing Wikipedia for quite some time. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page or by typing {{helpme}} at the bottom of this page. I love to help new users, so don't be afraid to leave a message! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome! All the best, Kodster (heLLo) (Me did that) 19:06, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of The Avianitarian in Aviculture
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on The Avianitarian in Aviculture, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as the Wikipedia:Business' FAQ for more information.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. TN‑X-Man 14:09, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
Editing a deleted page
[edit]Firstly, your page was deleted because it appeared to be blatant advertising. If you want to edit it, you're going to have to make sure that it follows Wikipedia standards. Read What Wikipedia is not for a better understanding of, well, what Wikipedia is not.
If you think that you can edit the page to meet Wikipedia's standards, first click here to find a list of administrators who can email you a copy of your deleted page. Or you can contact Orangemike, who deleted your page. Once you get a copy of your page, change it to meet Wikipedia standards, and email me (or another administrator) a copy of your new page if you want me to make sure it's okay for a new article. Remember that all Wikipedia articles must meet notability requirements to make sure that the subject of the article is notable enough for its own page. That's a judgment call that you may want to contact Orangemike or another administrator.
By the way, to email someone, go to their user page (type in "User:username") and click on "Email this user" in the toolbox (the box under the search box). You must have a valid email to email another user. If you haven't already, click on "My Preferences" (all the way at the top), go to "Email (optional)", type in your email, click "Save", and check your inbox of that email to validate your email.
I hope this helps! Good luck on your first article. If it gets deleted again, you probably shouldn't try to recreate it, because it may not meet Wikipedia standards. Feel free to contact me on my talk page if you need any more help. Cheers! Kodster (heLLo) (Me did that) 16:51, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
Your recent edits to Aviculture
[edit]Hi! Just a quick message to let you know that I've started a discussion over at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Birds#Recent_edits_to_Aviculture with regards to the edits you've been making to the Aviculture article in recent days.
It's nothing bad - rather, I noticed that all your edits had been reverted today (I'd assume because there were many formatting errors) and thought that it was worth discussing with the 'bird guys' on here, whether your additions should remain in the article, rather than letting them be removed entirely. Feel free to join in. --Kurt Shaped Box (talk) 13:22, 8 September 2013 (UTC)
File source problem with File:COUNCIL 1894 Invention of name, Aviculture.pdf
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Copyright-problem.svg/64px-Copyright-problem.svg.png)
Thank you for uploading File:COUNCIL 1894 Invention of name, Aviculture.pdf. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 00:31, 20 June 2014 (UTC)
