Your RfA
I regret to say that I have closed your RfA early as per WP:SNOW. I have included a summary of the opinions cast in my reason for doing so, which was essentially 'get some more experience before trying again'. You have been very brave in putting yourself in the spotlight here after so short a time of editing WP. Most people wait between six-to-twelve months before trying for an RfA and they are not alway successful either. Strategies for improving your profile for another RfA include: These are just some of the ideas for making effective contributions to the project. You can also see Wikipedia:Contributing to Wikipedia for more ideas. Regards and good editing, (aeropagitica) 04:40, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
 * 1) contributing effectively to articles. This includes finding references and citations for facts in reliable sources, something that is essential for an encyclopedia.
 * 2) Working on the Good Article Drive, Good Article Collaboration of the week and the Article Creation and Improvement Drive.
 * 3) Patrolling the New pages and Recent changes special pages for vandalism; tagging the pages according to the criteria for speedy deletion and warning the vandals.
 * 4) Reporting repeat vandals for admin intervention.
 * 5) Joining a Wikiproject or finding a portal on a subject in which you are interested and contributing through that.
 * 6) Assisting at the Help and Reference desks.
 * 7) Welcoming new users.
 * 8) Becoming adopted or, when you are more experienced, adopting new users to assist them in learning about Wikipedia.

Welcome to Wikipedia
Oh yeah, and welcome to WikiProject Environment. I saw that you are interested in waste management topics. Vortexrealm (Alex) is an expert in this field as well as writing waste management related articles on Wikipedia. You can ask him (or me) for help. OhanaUnitedTalk page 23:24, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
