Your contribution
Welcome to Wikipedia. I have moved what you wrote on this page to a "sandbox" page at User:Cliffubba/sandbox, in order to free this talk page for messages. You will see that it has been nominated for deletion, and a discussion is taking place at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Cliffubba/sandbox. You are welcome to contribute to that discussion, but before doing so, you should understand the reason why your contribution is not suitable for Wikipedia, even in a user page.

Wikipedia is a project to build an encyclopedia, and that is all it is. Although anyone can edit, that does not mean that anyone can add whatever they like. That central purpose is defined by a rather long policy, What Wikipedia is not which includes Wikipedia is not a publisher of original thought and Wikipedia is not a blog or webspace provider. There is also a basic content policy WP:No original research which explains in more detail.

I hope you will not be discouraged, and will read the links in the Welcome message above to learn more about Wikipedia, and stay to become a contributor. Please ask below here if you have any questions - I will watch this talk page. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 09:20, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
