Your recent edits

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you must sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 01:23, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

== Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Otaki Forks, you may be blocked from editing. The reverted edit can be found here. Thank you. →♠Gƒoley↔Four♣← 01:51, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

Your articles

Hi Postitnz, your articles looked like good starts to me. If you would like more time to improve them, I can undelete them and put them in your user space where you can work on them some more. Perhaps you could find smoe guide books that discuss them? If they are notable sites, you should be able to find some reliable sources about them. I disagree with the idea that the government documents about them can not be used; they just should not be the only sources used. I am afraid you have had a poor welcome to Wikipedia. I hope you do not give up contributing - I think you can offer a lot to improve the encyclopedia. Please let me know if you would like me to give you those articles back to work on, and I'd be glad to assist you with any questions you may have. LadyofShalott 04:39, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
