User talk:Nathan Norman

Congratulations on your first edit! While we appreciate your efforts with the article Xtreme world wrestling, please try and adhere to some general guidelines:

1. This is supposed to be an encyclopedia. While Wikipedia is not really like a paper-and-ink encyclopedia, it is still a public information source and articles need to be written for a general audience.

2. Everything not easily verified on Wikipedia should have a named source, whether it is a book, magazine, Web site, or whatever, so we can check the veracity of our articles. Ideally, sources should be formally cited, adhering to standard bibliographic notation.

3. Articles should be written using Wiki markup and using the guidelines in the Manual of Style. Wiki markup is not like a formal programming language and is rather simple- use double brackets to indicate a link, two or three equals signs to create a new heading, two apostrophes to show italics, an asterisk for bullets, and three apostrophes to show bold text. Use single brackets to indicate a link to another website.

4. Articles on the English Wikipedia need to be entirely in English, not slang, l33t, or IM-speak. If you speak a foreign language natively, you can contribute to that Wikipedia (over one hundred and counting). Translation is also available.

5. Unless they're famous, don't write articles on you, your house, your relatives, your friends, or your neighbor's cousin's friend's dog (that actually happened once).

6. In general, try and read Wikipedia frequently. Wikipedia is an excellent, very extensive information source, and the more familiar you are with Wikipedia, the easier editing will be.

7. Wikipedia must maintain a neutral point of view NPOV. Please don't try and advocate a position or convince people of something. This goes double for spam and corporate advertisements.

Again, thank you, and welcome to the Wikipedia community!

Block Quote
Hi there; this article has been marked for speedy deletion, on the basis that it empty, that is to say, contained no text. If you were in the middle of editing, my apologies.

Time To Kill
The tag "prod" template to the article Time To Kill, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at Talk:Time To Kill. You may remove the deletion notice, and the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

 * I've had a look at it, and you should have a look at Notability, Verifiability, and Original research. The main points of these are that all the information on the various subjects in Wikipedia is that


 * The subject must be notable
 * They must be verifiable; in other words, someone else must have written about the subject somewhere, so Wikipedia can cite them as a source
 * The contents of an article can't be a direct copy, or the result of research. If someone were to have a brand new revolutionary scientific theory, not published anywhere, Wikipedia would not be the place to first publish it.


 * In regards of the abovementioned article, my guess is that it will be deleted, as it's unlikely to satisfy the notability requirements since it haven't been published (yet). Also, it cites no sources, and as the author mentioned in the article have the same name as your username, it is also more likely to be regarded as original research. Hope this helps, if not, please let me know :) Bjelleklang -  talk 01:11, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
