Hello, 207.118.165.196, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your changes. I hope you like it here and decide to stay. Sadly, one or more of the pages you started may not fit some of Wikipedia's guidelines for new pages and may soon be deleted.

There is a page about making articles you may want to read. It is called "How to write Simple English articles". If you need help, please post a message at "Simple talk", where other experienced Wikipedians can answer any questions you have. Or, you can type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will soon answer your questions. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

September 2012[change source]

Hey there, 207.118.165.196! Here are a few good ideas that you can use to help making articles in the future:

  • If the article that you made is under 1,000 bytes, please add the {{stub}} template into the article near the end (below the "Other websites" section, but above the interwikis (see below)). This will let other editors know that it is a short article that needs to be made longer.
  • If you have no idea what categories an article that you begin should go under, please add the {{uncat}} template to the article. This will let other editors know that you need help categorizing the article properly.
  • Please remember to include interwikis at the bottom of an article. This will help users go between the many different Wikipedias that are in existence to check information and possibly add new information to the article here easily.

Thanks for reading this long message, and happy changing here on Simple English Wikipedia! Osiris (talk) 08:00, 16 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sportscaster articles[change source]

Please do not create any further articles on sportscasters. You are asked to refer to our guidelines, especially about formatting and citing sources. Articles need to use proper formatting and include references. At the moment this is creating a huge amount of work for other editors. If you keep mass-creating unreferenced articles, this will be seen as disruptive. You may be blocked from editing. If you have any questions please ask.--Peterdownunder (talk) 07:56, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
