Welcome to Wikipedia. A page you recently created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for new pages, so it will shortly be removed (if it hasn't been already). Please use the sandbox for any tests. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read Your first article. You may also want to read our introduction page to learn more about contributing. --Bongwarrior (talk) 02:38, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Stop!
If you continue to vandalise articles or user pages like you are doing with Bongwarrior's page, you'll be blocked from editing. (And he is an administrator, so he can do it himself.) You must be terribly upset about that page you created being killed off. I know how it feels; five of my child articles have been considered for deletion in the past. Two of them were killed, one survived, the other two I managed to save from death by making them into redirects. It's very hard and discouraging, but you don't have to condemn Bongwarrior by vandalizing his page. I don't know if he's the one who killed your article or not, but I know he delievered the message, and if that's all he did, then you can't really blame it on him. He's only serving under Wikipedia guidelines. I know they're unfair, or may seem so, but if people didn't follow them then this whole encyclopedia would become a fansite or a documentary, or even a picture gallery; often containing illegally used fair-use images. Please don't take it so hard. I know, when you're article/s or even your image/s, or anything else you create gets deleted, you just want to go out and track down any other user, in the real world, and then slice them into pieces and draw hateful signs in the road with each and every one of these tidbits, but it doesn't pay. THe same as if you did that in real life, you'd get life in prison and maybe even the death penalty in some countries, metaphorically doing so on Wikipedia will get you blocked from editing, and some wiki-projects might even delete your account (and block your IP address from making any more). Then you've really lost out, because now you have no future chance of making any more child articles on Wikipedia.

Right now your best bet is to follow Bongwarrior's advice and read the guidelines on making new articles; then look for notable topics which are do not have a page, and create it for them. You should also categorize your page with appropriate categories (maybe read in the search engine to find out if there are any such categories and how they are named,) and look on other languages of Wikipedia to see if those international versions have a page on the topic. Then leave a link to those there. Plan out on paper how the article shall be first-written, or use the sandbox, and learn about how a suitable infobox for the topic is designed. Then look on the internet for any possible images (but if it's of a living person, please take your own or one you know is free-use-licensed.) Sounds like a lot of work, but it's really worth it! I like to say: Put in a half-baked effort, and come out with an illegitamate, deformed child article, who will likely be exterminated. That isn't what you wanted for, right? Neither is it with any article's-parents. So put in a full-baked effort, please! You will be much happier with the results, and you will have improved Wikipedia significantly. What's more? You'll have shared your worthy knowledge and skills of teaching with the rest of the online community members who go to Wikipedia as a museum of information on various interesting topics, and that is one of the best online accomplishments anyone can ever make!

I wish you all the best of luck with your future offspring-articles! Wilhelmina Will (talk) 03:09, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Charlesland Eco Warriors
The article Charlesland Eco Warriors has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article seemed to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki (talk) 19:37, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
