I noted that you created a new article, Parish nursing. While the topic looks interesting and appropriate for Wikipedia, the text appears to have been copied wholesale from an external website on the topic. Unfortunately, Wikipedia cannot accept submissions which are copyrighted by someone else.

If you are knowledgeable on the topic, you can fix the issue by rewriting the article to include your own prose, rather than prose written by another party. If this is your own writing, my apologies.

Let me know if you have any questions! And again, welcome to Wikipedia! --EngineerScotty 20:05, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
