Welcome!

Hello, Laughing Cabbage, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Franklin Lock and Dam, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

Speedy deletion nomination of Franklin Lock and Dam
A tag has been placed on Franklin Lock and Dam requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Welcome Cabbage
Hello write to me if you want. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 08:46, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

Well done
Good job Cabbage. I tweaked the Amsterdam article here. The reason I changed "advice" to "path colour" is that Wiki is not a how-to or a guide. "Just the facts, ma'am", as they say.

Thanks for catching my mistakes on the lock and dam article.

Keep up the good work. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 13:15, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

Oshawa Trails
I added some references to get the thing started. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 22:35, 28 August 2010 (UTC)
