Welcome!

Hello, Driglaz, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question and then place  after the question on your talk page. Again, welcome! I am sorry that you have had such a difficult start with creating new articles here, and I hope that you aren't too discouraged. The problem is that WP has policies and guidelines about what kinds of pages the encyclopaedia wants and needs. In particular, as you now know, cut and pasting from another website is not allowed. Also all the articles need to be about something notable and verifiable, and there is a very low tolerance for articles that seem like advertising! If you click the blue links you can find out more about these issues, as well as the links in the information provided above. Let me know if I can help in any other way --Slp1 12:54, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Mayor ken pringle, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template   to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.
