Welcome!
Hello, Shanawazqureshi, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Magnetic disk access time, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

Your contributed article, Magnetic disk access time

Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Magnetic disk access time. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as yourself. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Magnetic_storage#Technical_details. Because of the duplication I have redirected your article to Magnetic_storage#Technical_details. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Magnetic_storage#Technical_details - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page. andy (talk) 14:29, 31 October 2011 (UTC)

Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, ATA Disk. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as yourself. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Parallel ATA. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Parallel ATA - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.
If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Nikthestoned 17:06, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
Copyright violations in sandbox
[edit]Hi Kajalpkhatri, I just wanted to alert you to the fact that your sandbox article appears to be entirely composed of text copy-pasted from web sources, with slight modifications. This kind of contribution to Wikipedia is unacceptable, even in your sandbox page, even if you change the words slightly. I was forced to delete this content. I also removed content in Magnetic storage that you copied from your book - you must never copy from books. Please review Wikipedia:Copy-paste and Wikipedia:Close_paraphrasing. Additionally, whenever you use a source, you must reference it using the <ref> tags, as you did for Webopedia. Please be more careful to write articles only in your own words. Thank you.
