Welcome!

Hello, Kres9060, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Adam and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 00:00, 26 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Hotarumibashi Park

edit

Nevermind the notification; I see you're in an education project and I assume you'll be adding more content to the article in the future. Ks0stm (TCGE) 21:57, 2 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

Creating articles with no content

edit

As noted above, I assume that you are planning to add more content to these articles in future. However, you and your instructor should be aware that that is not how wikipedia works. Articles are expected to be ready when they are added to the encyclopaedia, otherwise they should be created as drafts. I have moved two articles you created to draft space so you can work on them and add content and references over time. They can then be submitted for review, but please do not keep creating articles with no content. Thank you, Melcous (talk) 22:12, 2 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

Help me!

{{help me}}

Please help me with deleting two pages I accidentally published 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Hotarumibashi_Park 2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Zhongshan_Shipyard_Park

I am doing an assignment and seeing I am still very much a novice on how to use Wikipedia and understanding it fully, I created them. So, I supposed I nominate both for speedy deletion before more users become frustrated

Hi! I replied to your email. I can delete them if you want, but I would also be happy to help you work on them and turn them into functional articles. What would you prefer? Ks0stm (TCGE) 22:40, 2 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
Hi Ks0stm! Thank you for getting back to me! Go ahead and delete them but I greatly appreciate your offer.
  Done. Feel free to let me know via either email or my talk page if you need any help with your course! Ks0stm (TCGE) 22:46, 2 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
Thank you kindly for your help and your offer! I most likely will be going to you quite a lot because coding and Wikipedia so far is incredibly confusing.
Hi Kres, Ks0stm replied before I had a chance, but I just wanted to say thanks for your message on my talk page. Wikipedia can be confusing at first, but the fact that you are engaging on talk pages and understanding the issues involved is great and I think shows that you will be a helpful contributor, so I'd encourage you if you do have an article that you want to write, to start with a draft and work on it over time. That way you can also ask for help and feedback from other editors along the way. If you have any questions you think I can help with, feel free to ask.
