Welcome!

Hello,, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type helpme on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Where to ask a question or ask me on. Again, welcome! WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 15:15, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Add a painting prefix:Wikipedia:Reference desk/Archives
A tag has been placed on Add a painting prefix:Wikipedia:Reference desk/Archives requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. 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), 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.

Contributing work
Your recent article appears to be an attempt to communicate with the administrators of Wikipedia in order to gain guidance on how to submit your painting. You might want to refer to Help:Files for instructions on how to do that. Alternatively, you can place the helpme tag on your talk page (this page), followed by the question you need help with, and an admin will see the tag and provide you with the assistance you need.

Good luck! WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 15:18, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

Your offer of your painting
If you wish to upload an image of your own work to Wikipedia, see Uploading images; but it might be better to upload it to Commons, a central repository whose images are available to all Wikimedia projects, such as Wikipedias in other languages. Advice on doing that is available at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Contributing_your_own_work. Whether the image would actually be used to illustrate any particular article would be a matter to be decided by consensus among editors working on that article.
