Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. An article you recently created, Black Corinth, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for new articles, so it will shortly be removed (if it hasn't been already). Please use the sandbox for any tests you may want to do and please read our introduction page to learn more about contributing. Thank you. -- TREYWiki  21:22, 12 May 2007 (UTC)


 * As I posted on TREYWiki's talk page, I don't think this a candidate for speedy deletion, since while it's short, it isn't missing context. You deleted the tag when you added your  tag, which isn't something you should do as the original author, but I would have deleted it anyways (which I'm allowed to do since I'm not the original author), so no real harm done. I also deleted your signature ( ~ ) from the article; the signature should be only use on "Talk" pages, either where we're talking about an article, or on a user's talk page when you want to communicate with them. Lots of stuff to learn, but thank you for adding to Wikipedia. I'll add one of the standard Welcome templates after this which has some good links to read about how to use and create here. Welcome! - Fordan (talk) 22:17, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
