Welcome!

Hello, Steelaway, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your edits to the page User:Steelaway have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and may be removed if they have not yet been. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. As well, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to the new contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Your draft article, User:Steelaway/Refractory Organics

edit
 

Hello, Steelaway. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "Refractory Organics".

The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code. Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by one of two methods (don't do both): 1) follow the instructions at WP:REFUND/G13, or 2) copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|User:Steelaway/Refractory Organics}}, paste it in the edit box at this link, and click "Save page". An administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. JMHamo (talk) 20:10, 12 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did on Eurabia. This violates Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Grayfell (talk) 04:13, 8 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 31 hours for violations of Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  GABgab 08:58, 8 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
You have twice added serious BLP violations to Eurabia, including after being reverted by Grayfell. Other recent edits ([1], [2]) have not assuaged these concerns. GABgab 09:01, 8 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
