User talk:Doriethurston

Welcome!

Hello,, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type   on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

Speedy deletion nomination of Vivid verbs
Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Vivid verbs, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Alliteration
Hello Doriethurston, you may notice that I have just reverted your latest edits to the Alliteration page. This is because I believe the content, which you have previously added, and I have previously removed, to constitute self-promotion; also the external link which you have added is, I'm sure, spam. Neither of these is acceptable in Wikipedia. If you disagree with my assessment, or you would like guidance on how to add content in an acceptable format, then type here on your talk page, followed by an explanation of what's happened, and an administrator will be along fairly soon to assist you. Hopefully you'll be able to work something out, but it would be good if you would refrain from re-inserting the same content until you have done this. Thanks. Nortonius (talk) 19:41, 17 May 2010 (UTC)
