Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 17:14, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

I'm a bit confused about the image you uploaded. Is it your own work or did it come from the web site of Sirc Michaels? You seem to have labeled it as your own work but stated otherwise on the AfD. Thank you. Handschuh-talk to me 09:50, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

On deletions...
Hi. I'm the administrator who closed the AfD on the Sirc Michaels article. Unfortunately, the article didn't meet the criteria of notability and it was deleted.

I noticed by your comments that you're frustrated by how you were backed you into a corner pretty quickly here. I apologize for that; I know that it can be frustrating to lose something that you've worked hard on and have a personal interest in. It's happened to me plenty - it's just the nature of an open source encyclopedia, unfortunately.

If you've got further questions on why the Michaels article didn't work here, just ask - visit my talk page at User talk:Tijuana Brass. You might also find Introduction helpful, along with Your first article. Reliable sources and Verifiability has more on why MySpace and a local paper fell short as references.

Finally, I hope that losing a few articles won't discourage you from staying here as an editor. You clearly have a talent for writing, and despite having to delete the Michaels article, I found it very well-composed. Would you be interested in joining WikiProject Theatre or WikiProject Literature?

Let me know if I can help in any way. Tijuana Brass (talk) 03:12, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
