Welcome
Welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for expanding Jordan Village, Connecticut. Unfortunately, the content you added was largely copied from a source, thus violating the copyright of the source. Wikipedia needs to be very careful to avoid violating publishers' copyrights; therefore, volunteer contributors (like you and me) need to make sure that the content we contribute is written in our words and does not even closely paraphrase a source. Don't worry, I've removed the content that I found to violate copyright.

Also, I notice that you struggled with trying to format content properly. Wikipedia coding is different from standard HTML and also different from what you may be familiar with in some other wikis. We also have a Manual of Style that deals with protocol for things like titles of article sections. Here are some other pages that you might find helpful:
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Help pages
 * Tutorial
 * How to write a great article

Hint: I've found that the easiest way to learn how to format content is to emulate the format and structure of an existing article on a similar topic. You can also use the Wikipedia sandbox to experiment with formatting.

Feel free to ask me questions on my talk page, and I invite you to visit the Wikipedia Teahouse for conversation and advice about contributing productively at Wikipedia. --Orlady (talk) 18:31, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
