Hello, Bmcsimmons679, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian 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.

You can always create new sandboxes for them. For example, you could create RingoMad67/sandbox2 or RingoMad67/stub or whatever else you might want. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:04, 7 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

I've moved the article to your userspace because it doesn't look ready for mainspace yet. You can work on your article there and move it to mainspace when it's ready. Regards, Fuortu (talk) 19:11, 10 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hi - Thank you, but I thought it was in a sandbox anyway which isn't in mainspace. I'm new to this haha but thanks! RingoMad67 (talk) 19:16, 10 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Ah, I see why you made that mistake. I've also deleted RingoMad67/stub because it was an unnecessary redirect after page move. Good luck. Fuortu (talk) 19:23, 10 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Your submission at Articles for creation: Lilian Welsh (June 13) edit

Latest comment: 6 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Onel5969 was:

This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

The comment the reviewer left was:

The tone is very informal, with much too much commentary. Simply stick to the facts.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Lilian Welsh and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.
