Congratulations on your first edit! While we appreciate your efforts with the article Alexander Ruthven, please try and adhere to some general guidelines:

1. This is supposed to be an encyclopedia. While Wikipedia is not really like a paper-and-ink encyclopedia, it is still a public information source and articles need to be written for a general audience.

2. Everything not easily verified on Wikipedia should have a named source, whether it is a book, magazine, Web site, or whatever, so we can check the veracity of our articles. Ideally, sources should be formally cited, adhering to standard bibliographic notation.

3. Articles should be written using Wiki markup and using the guidelines in the Manual of Style. Wiki markup is not like a formal programming language and is rather simple- use double brackets to indicate a link, two or three equals signs to create a new heading, two apostrophes to show italics, an asterisk for bullets, and three apostrophes to show bold text.

4. Articles on the English Wikipedia need to be entirely in English, not slang, l33t, or IM-speak. If you speak a foreign language natively, you can contribute to that Wikipedia (over one hundred and counting). Translation is also available.

5. Unless they're famous, don't write articles on you, your house, your relatives, your friends, or your neighbor's cousin's friend's dog (that actually happened once).

6. In general, try and read Wikipedia frequently. Wikipedia is an excellent, very extensive information source, and the more familiar you are with Wikipedia, the easier editing will be.

7. Wikipedia must maintain a neutral point of view NPOV. Please don't try and advocate a position or convince people of something. This goes double for spam and corporate advertisements.

Again, thank you, and welcome to the Wikipedia community!
