Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
 * Welcome!
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Manual of Style


 * Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring or sock puppetry.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
 * Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Shanklin Theatre
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Shanklin Theatre, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.shanklintheatre.com/the_theatre.aspx.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) CorenSearchBot (talk) 22:17, 23 November 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Holiday Let
Hello LarryGSmith,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Holiday Let for deletion, because it's too short to identify the subject of the article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Xcia0069 (talk) 22:27, 23 November 2014 (UTC)

Ways to improve Marine Villa
Hi, I'm Xcia0069. LarryGSmith, thanks for creating Marine Villa!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. This needs a lot more context to become a full WIkipedia article

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. Xcia0069 (talk) 22:30, 23 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Suggest this article is deleted. The building is not notable amongst many art deco homes and doesn't not contain any references or sources.David J Johnson (talk) 22:45, 23 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Suggest this article is retained. I have added references and sources and will add more history. If David J Johnson (talk) contacts the history society of Shanklin or many of the residents of the Isle of Wight he would find out that this building is indeed locally famous but locally noone had previously been able to gather the history of the house. There have been many famous visitors and users of the house. The longest owner was a H Terry Woods who owned the Shanklin Theatre and Shanklin Pier. It also appears he owned The Shanklin Brewery but I am still trying to validate this final item. It will take me some time to pull all this together. This is my first real attempt to contribute to wikipedia and the content will develop significantly as I gather further information LarryGSmith (talk) 23:34, 23 November 2014 (UTC)LarryGSmith


 * It's still not notable and only locally relevant. See Notability If we go on this way any Art Deco building anywhere will expect to be mentioned. I have no intention of contacting any local society to validate a non-notable entry to Wikipedia. David J Johnson (talk) 23:43, 23 November 2014 (UTC)
