Please stop removing speedy deletion notices from articles as it is considered vandalism. You may place hangon on the page and make your case on the article's talk page if you oppose an article's speedy deletion. Thanks. -- Merope 20:19, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the notice. I'm new.

Welcome to Wikipedia!
Hello, Fossiltooth, and welcome to Wikipedia! Wikipedia is one of the world's fastest growing internet sites. We aim to build the biggest and most comprehensive encyclopaedia in the world! To date we have over four million articles in a host of languages. The English language Wikipedia alone has 1,319,597 articles! But we still need more! Please feel free to contribute your knowledge and expertise to our site.

Here are a few good links for newcomers:
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Help pages
 * Tutorial (this is really great for getting used to editing Wikipedia)
 * How to write a great article
 * Manual of Style

Also, don't worry too much about being perfect. Very few of us are! It might be a good idea to read this to see how you can avoid making common mistakes, though.

Just to give you a really basic overview so you don't make any mistakes early:
 * 1) Wikipedia keeps a neutral point of view policy, meaning that all contributions must not be biased one way or the other. Even if both biases are presented, it is still not allowed on Wikipedia.
 * 2) Only public domain resources can be copied directly to Wikipedia without permission — this does not include most web pages.
 * 3) Be bold! In my opinion, this may be Wikipedia's most important policy.  Go ahead and edit a page!  Don't worry about "ruining" other's work, this is a wiki!  (Of course, major changes should probably be proposed on talk pages to achieve consensus, but don't be scared!)

We hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please always sign your name on talk pages (but not articles!) using four tildes (~&#126;); this will automatically produce your name and the time and date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place  on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome! — Mets 501 (talk) 23:08, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Leo Alves
Just letting you know that you have 5 days to "flesh" out Leo Alves. If at that point it still does not meet the guidelines set out at WP:MUSIC, it will be deleted. Feel free to contact me on my talk page if you have any problems. See you around! — Mets 501 (talk) 23:08, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
