User talk:Skirrow17

Hello, Skirrow17, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that one of the first articles you created was Ben Andrews, which appears to be an article about yourself. This is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians - as this is an enyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. Your user page, however, is a great place to write about yourself. Just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit it normally.

The page you created about yourself has been or will shortly be speedily deleted from Wikipedia, but if you want to use the content from it, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

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   on your user 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 my talk page. Again, welcome! The very model of a minor general (talk) 10:34, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Hi, the recent edit you made to Ben Andrews has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks.

If you want to delete a page that you have written, and which nobody else has (significantly) edited, add at the top of the page. I have just done that for you; the page Ben Andrews should disappear soon. --The very model of a minor general (talk) 17:42, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Attacks in
Please do not make personal attacks. Wikipedia has a strict policy against personal attacks. Attack pages and images are not tolerated by Wikipedia and are speedily deleted. Users who continue to create or repost such pages and images, especially those in violation of our Biographies of living persons policy, will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Thank you. Also, if you don't like someone or don't like Wikipedia, it's easier to leave, continue and someone will ban you. Andante1980 (talk) 06:13, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of File:Ben Andrews.jpg


The file File:Ben Andrews.jpg has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "orphaned file, no foreseeable use"

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
