A belated welcome!

Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, EditingFunFunFun. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
- Editor's index to Wikipedia
Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.
Again, welcome! Frood 04:00, 23 May 2017 (UTC)

A page you created has been nominated for deletion as an attack page, according to section G10 of the criteria for speedy deletion.
Do not create pages that attack, threaten, or disparage their subject or any other entity. Attack pages and files are not tolerated by Wikipedia, and users who create or add such material may be blocked from editing. Atlantic306 (talk) 19:46, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
I left a note on how all material was sourced accurately using unbiased sources. I linked the house journal of the Iowa House stating she was absent for key votes. I also linked the House Journal for specific votes that she cast with explanations of those votes from reputable newspapers like the Des Moines register. No response citing specifics about the page was offered. I need specifics so that I can ensure that I do not do it again, if it was accurately stated. I still maintain that this was an inappropriate deletion by Atlantic306. EditingFunFunFun (talk)EditingFunFunFun
- This is strictly against our biographies of living persons (BLP) policies. Please see Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not, in particular 2.2 and 2.3. The inappropriate use of primary sources specifically for painting a negative image of a group of people in this case (results of a House vote) is original research, which is not permitted, as it is a direct violation of criteria #2 of the BLP removal criteria. The changes will be reverted, please review our policies before making such changes again. Alex ShihTalk 07:02, 18 September 2017 (UTC)
