Help me!
Please help me with... I am a brand new contributor. I created my first article for Jason DaSilva at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_DaSilva However, the article is not showing up on Search Engines like google. (It does show up if you search Wikipedia.) Can you tell me how to get Search Engines to recognize it or am I missing something? Thanks in advance for your help.

 * Google moves in mysterious ways its wonders to perform, and there is nothing we can do about it. When I searched just now, the article was there, second item on the second page of results.


 * I'm sorry that no-one has yet given you a welcome message. Here are some pages that you may find helpful:
 * Introduction to Wikipedia
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * How to create your first article
 * Simplified Manual of Style
 * One other tip: to link to any page within Wikipedia, you do not need to give the full URL. Just type the page name within double square brackets. So typing  gives the link Jason DaSilva. JohnCD (talk) 17:51, 29 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Looking again just now, it's still on the second page of search results, but the "knowledge snippet" at top right of the first page is based on your article and links to it. JohnCD (talk) 21:34, 29 January 2016 (UTC)

Help me!
Help please as I am new to this. I received a couple of messages that my article "Jason DaSilva" is a draft in the Articles for Creation space and that it hasn't been edited in 6 months and might be deleted. My article is located at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_DaSilva This is the final version and not a draft and I thought it was in the right place so I don't understand why it might be deleted. Can someone tell me what I need to do to make it permanent so it won't be deleted? Or could there be an older version that is in the draft location that I don't know about? I'd greatly appreciate some advice! Thanks, Susan

 * That article was created in January. There also existed a draft, created in December, at Draft:Jason Dasilva. That draft now has been deleted. The deletion of that abandoned draft does not affect the live article. Huon (talk) 22:58, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
