 * Hi Cullen328,
 * I am so sorry about the misunderstanding. Here's the situation:
 * I'm trying to create a Wiki page that the Mandarin Community Club can use to post historical information about the Mandarin community in Jacksonville Florida. Part of the club's mission is to inform the community about historical facts about the clubs 100 years history.  Perhaps I went too far in create a user page that said Annual Arts Festival??
 * Are I (on behalf of the club) allowed to create such a page with historical facts? And yes, the club is a non-profit organization.  But we have been written about in journals and magazines as well as by Harriet Beecher Stowe and we also publish some historical books.
 * This is the first time I'm trying to create a Wiki and I wasn't aware that I was breaking a rule.
 * Please advise.
 * Thank you Mandarin Community Club (talk) 22:19, 4 June 2023 (UTC)
