User talk:Laporte101

Welcome!
Hello, Laporte101, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few links to pages you might find helpful:
 * Introduction and Getting started
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * How to create your first article
 * Simplified Manual of Style

You may also want to complete the Wikipedia Adventure, an interactive tour that will help you learn the basics of editing Wikipedia. You can visit the Teahouse to ask questions or seek help.

Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Again, welcome!

February 2018
Hello, I'm 67.70.34.54. An edit that you recently made to WP:AUTHOR seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want more practice editing, please use the sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! -- 67.70.34.54 (talk) 10:40, 22 February 2018 (UTC)

Sandboxes, drafts, and page uses
-- 67.70.34.54 (talk) 10:44, 22 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Please do not post draft articles to WP:AFC/R that page is for requesting redirects, not draft articles.
 * Please do not post draft articles onto your own talk page. That is not the proper use of a talk page. Use your own personal sandbox space, like User:Laport101/sandbox/Roger Troy Wilson. The purpose of a talk page is for communication between users, and leaving posts about problems with the articles the talk page is attached to.
 * Please do not post draft articles to your own user page. WP:UP user pages are places where you post information about yourself, and not a place to hold draft articles. You can use your usersandboxspace to hold draft, like User:Laport101/sandbox/Roger Troy Wilson.

Creating new articles
Thank you for your recent contributions. Getting started creating new articles on Wikipedia can be tricky, and you might like to try creating a draft version first, which you can then ask for feedback on if necessary, with less risk of deletion. Do make sure you also read help available to you, including Your First Article and the Tutorial. You might also like to try the Article Wizard, which has an option to create a draft version. Thank you. -- 67.70.34.54 (talk) 10:57, 22 February 2018 (UTC)

Articles for Creation - Redirects
Declined. This request is not for a redirect to be created. It appears instead that you are looking to create an article about the subject. See the instructions at WP:AFC on how to submit an article. -- 67.70.34.54 (talk) 05:12, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your user subpage at User:Laporte101 may not meet Wikipedia's user page guideline. If you believe that your user page does not violate our guideline, please leave a note on this page. Alternatively, you may add  to the top of the page in question and an administrator will delete it, or you can simply edit the page so that it meets Wikipedia's user page guideline. Thank you.
