I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Getting the articles just right can be tricky - but there are lots of people to ask!

If you have any questions, just click on the Contact Me link after my signature at the end of this section. Alternatively, check out Questions, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question.

By the way, when you are writing on a discussion page (or someone's talk page), it is considered good manners to sign your comment... to do this, just add  at the end of your comment. That will put your user name and the date/time at the end (or you can click on the  icon when you are editing. Never sign on an article page - only on a discussion page.

Hi PhantomSteve:

I have made several revisions based on your feedback and that from another Wiki editor. Can you take a look and see if this is close to being ready to move? Also, when this is in good shape to move, do I ask a Wiki edior of the Request Feedback page to help move it? Or is there another page where I make this request? Thanks for all your help and input.

Your draft article
I have moved the draft from User:Carmen2u/Sandbox to User:Carmen2u/Lee Aase, as this seems a more logical title for it! --  Phantom Steve / talk &#124; contribs \ 12:16, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

A quick guide to adding references
I mentioned on the New Users Contribution Helpdesk that you need to add more references.. here's a quick guide to how to do that!

Encyclopedic tone
I have read the draft article. I suggest that you read a dozen Wikipedia biographies to get a sense of wikipedia's style and depth of coverage. Wikipedia sees the world through reliable secondary sources. Although there detailed facts are about any person, only those that warrant coverage in secondary sources get included in a biography. The fact that a person maintains a blog or twitter feed probably would not fit that definition. If you decide to go ahead with a biography, try to describe the person and his life work from the 10,000 foot level without getting into the weeds of detail.

Similarly, consider contributing to a larger article on the field, like Mayo Clinic or Social networking instead of a specific biography. Racepacket (talk) 12:20, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

Happy Holidays from Phantomsteve!


Incidentally, do not leave a space (or spaces) at the start of a line, as it then puts the sentence in a box:
