Welcome to Wikipedia!
Dear : Welcome to Wikipedia, a free and open-content encyclopedia. I hope you enjoy contributing. To help get you settled in, I thought you might find the following pages useful:


 * Five Pillars of Wikipedia
 * Community Portal
 * Frequently Asked Questions
 * How to edit a page
 * How to revert to a previous version of a page
 * Tutorial
 * Copyrights
 * Shortcuts

Don't worry too much about being perfect. Very few of us are! Just in case you are not perfect, click here to see how you can avoid making common mistakes.

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Newcomers help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type   on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

Wikipedians try to follow a strict policy of never biting new users. If you are unsure of how to do something, you are welcome to ask a more experienced user such as an administrator. One last bit of advice: please sign any dicussion comment with four tildes (~&#126;). The software will automatically convert this into your signature which can be altered in the "Preferences" tab at the top of the screen. I hope I have not overwhelmed you with information. If you need any help just let me know. Once again welcome to Wikipedia, and don't forget to tell us about yourself and be BOLD! Regards, Accurizer 21:40, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

Andrew Considine
The article Andrew Considine  has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This happened because the article seems to be about a person or group of persons but it does not indicate how or why that person or group is notable. 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. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. You might also want to read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles. I have attempted to improve other articles that you have created, including Richie Byrne, John Stewart (footballer), Jamie Langfield, Chris Clark (footballer), so that they might avoid being tagged for deletion. However, another editor may still nominate them for deletion. Please consider taking some time to expand these articles further, explaining how the subjects are notable. Also, you should follow a similar layout for other articles that you contribute. Regards, Accurizer 22:08, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

Barthol chapel
This article was deleted as well for similar reasons to above. Please read the tutorials in your welcome before creating more articles. gren グレン 22:11, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

Footballers
I have also deleted Gary Dempsey. It appears that he is legitimate but you must follow rules and assert his notability in article creation. You must also link to sources and write in proper English. There is some leeway and other editors will help... but you must give them a good start. Thanks. gren グレン 22:13, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. Accurizer 22:13, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
