User talk:Brianbaughan

Welcome!

Hello, Brianbaughan, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Hilliard B. Jenkins, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard. Thank you.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

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.

Proposed deletion of Hilliard B. Jenkins[edit]

The article Hilliard B. Jenkins has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Modified and referenced Hilliard P. Jenkins[edit]

I'm sorry for the delay in responding. Just now I finalized your page and moved it to Wikipedia at your request. This is known as "going live." Now your article can be found through the search box, just like any other page. Great job on the article! Please contact me if any more problems arise, and we can collaborate on remodeling it. In addition, if there are any Wikipedia searches that you would like to redirect to your new article, please comment on my talk page. Also, please post your reply to this comment there as well. Thanks! Optiguy54 (talk) 19:47, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. The note you left on my talk page was formatted just fine. Only suggestion I can think of is to make the link you put at the beginning like this. To do that, put in the following text: [[Name of the Wikipedia page that you want to link to|text that appears.]] That makes the text a link, instead of having a separate link. So the text [[Hilliard P. Jenkins|this link]] appears as this link when saved. I just think it flows better, but that's just a minor thing. Thanks! Optiguy54 (talk) 19:58, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Feedback archived[edit]

Hi there.

A while ago, you requested feedback in WP:FEED. Because it has been a while, and you'd received at least some response there, I have now archived the replies in Wikipedia:Requests for feedback/Archive/26. Please do not edit that page though; if you require further feedback, add a new request on WP:FEED.

I am trying to clear the backlogs; it would help us a lot if you could look at the requests from other users on WP:FEED and add any comments to help them out. Anyone can respond there, so please do take a look, and comment on the articles from other people.

If you want help with anything at all, you could either;

Leave a message on my own talk page; OR
Use a {{helpme}} - please create a new section at the end of your own talk page, put {{helpme}}, and ask your question - remember to 'sign' your name by putting ~~~~ at the end; OR
Talk to us live, with this or this.

The last of those is particularly useful - please try it; pop in now and say hello. Best, Chzz ► 04:05, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
