User talk:Jayawaya1

Welcome!

Hello, Jayawaya1, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Jaya dehart, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type helpme on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: 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 have any questions, check out Questions or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 14:26, 28 October 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Jaya dehart


A tag has been placed on Jaya dehart requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles – see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 14:26, 28 October 2010 (UTC)

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages to Wikipedia, as doing so is not in accordance with our policies. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read Your first article; you might also consider using the Article Wizard. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 14:26, 28 October 2010 (UTC)

please dont delete my page, I am doing it for a school project, it will be edited
 * Sorry, but Wikipedia is a serious project to build an encyclopedia and there are standards which articles have to obey. Subjects have to be notable, which is not a matter of opinion but needs to be demonstrated by showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." Significant means more than just listing-type mentions; reliable excludes Myspace, Facebook, blogs, places where anyone can post anything; independent excludes the subject's own website, affiliated ones and anything based on press releases. Also, people are strongly  discouraged from writing about themselves, for reasons explained at WP:Autobiography.


 * However, you have a "user page" at User:Jayawaya1, where you can put some personal information about yourself. When adding personal information please remember that Wikipedia is not a social network such as MySpace or Facebook. Your user page is for anything that is compatible with the Wikipedia project. It is a mistake to think of it as a homepage: Wikipedia is not a blog, webspace provider, or social networking site. Please see Introduction, User page and Your first article for more information.

 * Some more points I thought of:
 * Don't start lines with leading spaces; you can indent a whole paragraph by putting a colon sign : at the beginning,as I am doing here, but leading spaces make the formatting go all funny

like this...
 * You did well to cope with markup, but you don't need to repeat the references after - the system automatically picks them up from within the article and lists them.
 * You can show this page to your teacher to show that you made a serious effort on your project.
 * If your project was suggested by a teacher, ask him/her to read WP:School and university projects and User:Jbmurray/Advice. If it was your own idea, never mind; it was a good idea, but we perhaps don't make clear enough that "anyone can edit" doesn't mean "anyone can put in anything they like." Read some of the links above to learn more about Wikipedia, and we'll hope to see you again.
