Welcome!

Hello, Steve-der, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template   to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please feel welcome to start your own pages, in addition to editing existing ones. If you create a page, and change your mind about it before any other user makes a significant edit to it, leave a db-self on it so that it will be deleted.

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 or problems, no matter what they are, leave me a message on my talk page.

Little context in Pietro vareni violin
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Pietro vareni violin, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Pietro vareni violin is very short providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Pietro vareni violin, please affix the template to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note, this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Pietro vareni violin itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 11:36, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
