Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. You may not know that Wikipedia has a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Using different styles throughout the encyclopedia makes it harder to read. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia.

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia, it is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. OfficeGirl 23:59, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not add promotional material to articles. Advertising, and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox", is strongly discouraged. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. OfficeGirl 23:59, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

Please do not put your signature in article entries
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I've noticed that you've been adding your signature to some of your article contributions. This is a simple mistake to make and by now should have been corrected. For future reference, the need to associate edits with users is taken care of by an article's edit history. Therefore, you should use your signature only when contributing to talk pages, the Village Pump, or other such discussion pages. For a better understanding of what distinguishes articles from these type of pages, please see What is an article?. Again, thanks for contributing, and enjoy your Wikipedia experience!

If you are the owner of the http://www.wowcars.co.nz/index.html you still cannot claim copyright on one side and release images to the GFDL on the other. Copyright issues are of paramount importance on Wikipedia. There is a procedure to follow to release the materials and you have not followed it. The images cannot stay if the procedures have not been followed. Please go back and read the instructions or ask someone to help you.OfficeGirl 18:10, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

World of Wearable Art
A template has been added to the article World of Wearable Art, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with db-author. OfficeGirl 16:57, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
 * I've removed the tag, because I do believe that the museum is worthy of an article. It may now be submitted to our more formal deletion process. It might help to avoid that, or to ensure the article is kept, if you could add several links to major newspaper or magazine reviews of the museum. This would establish its notability in independent sources. I could probably do this myself, but there are very many Google hits to wade through, most relating more to the show than the museum, whereas you may already know of such reviews. Also, there may be reviews in magazines which are not online; these would also be acceptable.- gadfium 20:10, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
