Welcome!

Hello, Rick.zhong, 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 Article test by Rick, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Article test by Rick


Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page that you created has been or soon will be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.

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 hang-on 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Feezo (Talk) 19:58, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

How can I delete articles I original created without your help?
Thank you! -Rick
 * I have moved your question to the bottom. New sections on talk pages should always be placed at the bottom.
 * You cannot deleted a page on Wikipedia by yourself because only administrators can delete pages. You can request the deletion of pages so an administrator will see it and know you want it deleted.  A user has requested the deletion of Article test by Rick by placing  on the page, so an administrator should delete it shortly.  Other tags that can be placed on pages to request deletion can be found at Criteria for speedy deletion.
 * Please let me know if there are any more questions. Thanks!  --Mysdaao talk 20:16, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
 * As an addendum to the above, you're free to create test pages in your own userspace, for example, at User:Rick.zhong/testpage. Don't worry about having created a test page in the main article space, it'll be deleted soon enough. :) Feezo (Talk) 20:20, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I've deleted the article per the request. --Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 20:32, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

What editing applications available in facilitating to create/edit wikipedia article other than handcoding markup? like WYSIWYG editor?
Thanks, -Rick
 * I haven't used any, but there's a list at WYSIWYG editor. Feezo (Talk) 21:19, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
 * If you go into "my preferences" under the editing tab there's an option "Use external editor by default (for experts only, needs special settings on your computer. More information.)" - the "more information" is a clickable link.  Ron h jones (Talk) 21:21, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
