Sterling Lands
Hi, quite a few problems.
 * The article title should not include titles or academic qualifications. Even your president is just Barack Obama, with no rank or degrees. You should not capitalise his name either, that's just spam.
 * It did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts or show that it meets the notability guidelines. It is now wikipedia policy that biographical articles about living people must have independent verifiable references or they will be deleted. Acceptable sources would include, for example, national newspapers.
 * It was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Examples of unsourced spammy claims, which need an independent reference include ''a commitment to developing Christ centered families of high integrity... crowned... MASTER'S... He is an international speaker.....
 * Although not a reason for deletion, you should link to other wikipedia articles, such as Baton Rouge, Louisiana, otherwise it looks as if the text, created in one edit, has been cut-and-paste from a source which may not be public domain.

If you want to have another go, and you think he meets the notability criteria, why not draft in a sandbox, and let me know when you want comments?  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  14:24, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Sterling Lands, II has been reverted. Your edit here to Sterling Lands, II was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Masters-Circle-Christian-Fellowship-International-MCCFI-Incorporated/141222252620149#!/photo.php?fbid=142083412534033&set=pu.141222252620149&type=1&theater) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. an image file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy and therefore probably should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 23:26, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

My talk page is the best place to contact me, but I've deleted and hidden your message, since you should be wary of giving details such as phone numbers on line. Note that messages should go at the bottom of the page. Your message was a bit vague, what specifically do you need help with, I've indicated the problems above. User created content, like facebook and blogs are not independent references.  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  06:35, 19 August 2011 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation


I noticed your submission in Articles for creation, Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Sterling Lands, II. Thanks! It will be reviewed by a volunteer soon.

Before it can be added to Wikipedia, your submission should have references. All articles on Wikipedia should have inline, numbered references after facts, showing the 'reliable source' (a newspaper, book, etc.) where the information can be checked, so that all information is verifiable.

Here's an example of how to add references: Chzz is 98 years old.&lt;ref> "The book of Chzz", Aardvark Books, 2009. &lt;/ref>

He likes tea.&lt;ref> Smith, John. " Interview with Chzz", Foo News, 1 April 2010. Retrieved 2011-05-22.

== References ==

That makes the references automatically display as small numbers[1] which will link to the details in the section titled == References == at the end. You can see that example in action here.

Please add references to your submission, which will be reviewed as soon as possible. See also, Referencing for beginners. If you need any help, just put at the end of this page, followed by a question or get into our live help chat chanel at.

Hello Sltrinity. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Sterling Lands II, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about following the reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:


 * Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
 * Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
 * Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).
 * Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
