NOTE TO EDITOR

Not sure how to edit using WikiPedia, but here is content from an editorial at http://acousticana.us/editorial-%E2%80%A2-what-is-acousticana/

The article I am trying to create is here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Henri-deschamps-wp/AcoustiCana

WOW James, the edits you did are phenomenal! Page looks great, and I will study that code. I will also do as you suggest to see how to get the hang of it progressively. (Henri-deschamps-wp (talk) 20:05, 15 April 2011 (UTC))

 * The draft article you have made seems to substantially consist of copies of material from existing Wikipedia articles, which could create problems over copyright attribution. I also do not think that in its present state the draft satisfies Wikipedia's quality standards. In my experience people who come straight to Wikipedia and jump in at the deep end by writing articles straight away frequently have a frustrating time, and eventually get discouraged. This is because they find that their efforts fall foul of one or more of Wikipedia's guidelines and policies, and their work is deleted. It is far better to start in a small way, by making little improvements to existing articles. That way you can learn gently how Wikipedia works. You will make mistakes, but they will only be little ones, and you won't lose large quantities of content that you have worked on. You have taken two good first steps by asking for help, and producing a user space draft rather than launching straight into an article. I strongly recommend looking at some of the pages linked to in the welcome message I have given you. (Don't try to read and learn all of it, as there is far too much to take in at first.) Then start making small edits where you find there is a need for improvement, and come back to writing an article when you have had a bit more experience. One other thing: it is almost never a good idea to copy material you find on other internet pages. Doing so will usually lead to deletion, either for copyright reasons or other reasons.
