Nomination of Bioluminescence phytoplankton for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Bioluminescence phytoplankton is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Bioluminescence phytoplankton until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. MSJapan (talk) 04:02, 17 June 2016 (UTC)

Introduction to Wikipedia

 * Hello. I am Steve Quinn. Welcome to Wikipedia. Your first contribution to this project is much appreciated. Unfortunately, the article you created did not meet Wikipedia's standards and will most likely be deleted.


 * However, do not become disheartened. This happens a lot to new people because they are not familiar with Wikipedia's standards. In fact, this happened to me when I was new, about 7 years ago. :Also, in this case, Wikipedia has already amply covered all the topics mentioned in your article and it is not possible to cover the same material already published here.


 * If I may give you a little feedback - Wikipedia is not a teaching tool, it is an encyclopedia, so rhetorical questions are usually not part of any article.


 * Additionally, I can tell that you are really able to write articles for Wikipedia but probably need to learn the basic rules. Think of Wikipedia as having its own culture. So, when you feel ready to write another article, please read this first: Writing Your First Articles on Wikipedia.


 * Finally, if you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page; it is located at this link: Steve Quinn's talk page. Thank you for your time - and keep on contributing!!! Steve Quinn (talk) 02:53, 18 June 2016 (UTC)
