 * Hello Tarkapete--the article you wrote had a couple of problems. First of all it was created like a template, and that's incorrect. Second, the article was not written in an encyclopedic tone and lacks reliable sources. Perhaps you'd like to try submitting a draft for an article through a process designed for it--see WP:AFC. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 23:09, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
