User talk:GarrettReid

Welcome!

Hello, GarrettReid, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Marvel super villains, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Hello!

Hello, GarrettReid. It is nice to see young editors (like myself!) on Wikipedia. You may benefit from reading this essay on young editors. Also, in future, please do not write inappropriate articles, such as your one about Marvel villains, which expresses your point of view on the topic, rather than being of an encyclopaedic tone. Thanks, --Ches (talk) 20:37, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

And I accept your apology. It wasn't an inappropriate comment, but rather an inappropriate article (Wikipedia page, if you like). Hope that clears things up. --Ches (talk) 21:00, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
