Hey, stop posting stuff copied from somewhere else on the Internet. That's a copyright violation and they will have to be removed. Adam Bishop 21:05, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)

I had no idea.

If you want to help, you should write articles yourself, not copy them from elsewhere. Adam Bishop 21:15, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)

What if I'am not that good at writing articles?

--Relaxation 21:16, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Nonsense

don't disrupt Wikipedia by adding nonsense. --Neigel von Teighen 21:24, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)


What do you mean nonsense? I'am just helping articles. I have that right don't I?

--Relaxation 21:26, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Not exactly, you created some pages about nonexistant stuff. A good beginning is to make minor edits, like mending typos or adding some piece of information. So you'll learn how Wikipedia works. After that, you will surely begin naturally to make bigger edits and also create great articles by yourself. Anyway, don't worry: Wikipedians know that newcomers do mistakes and no one will consider you a vandal. Yours --Neigel von Teighen 21:30, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Well thank you for not considering me a vandal because I'am not I'am just new and I would like to help out. Mispellings I can try my best. Thank you Neigel.

Why I deleted your article

Because it contained little to no context, no links to other articles and was five words long. I understand you're trying to help out, try writing a bit more about someone next time. "XX is YY's sister" does not point out why they are notable: someone needs to be notable in and of themselves in order to afford an article on wikipedia, who you're related to doesn't cut it, I'm afraid.

As a newcomer try out some edits in the sandbox so that you can get links sorted and wikification, and put some efort into your articles. Substubs are OK, subsubstubs are not. -- Francs2000 | Talk [[]] 21:38, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)

You people talk to complicated please talk normal so I can understand. I really want to help out.

I think Francs2000 is being too technical (I've got similar problems as you when I was a newcomer)...Why don't you read Wikipedia:Tutorial first and Wikipedia:FAQ. There's all about the technical words. Wikipedia:Sandbox is a place for making editing test, experiments and play without breaking any rule, check it and play there for learning to use Wikipedia. --Neigel von Teighen 21:50, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)

If you are not "good at writing articles", I don't know what to say, but don't copy and paste from another website. Don't make things up, and don't write about things are not fit for an encyclopedia. Look at the links Francs2000 gave you, they should help you. Adam Bishop 21:53, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Adam how good is your knowledge? That's what I would really like to know. Because your treating me like a nobody.

--Relaxation 21:54, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Adam, don't bite newcomers! Let him learn how this works. I saw him experimenting on the sandbox few minutes ago. Don't you remember how you began here? --Neigel von Teighen 22:04, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)
