AFD edit
Hi 140xxx,
I noticed you added {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wyvern and Serket (symbol)}} to todays AFD log but simply adding that only create a redlink so thus gets removed from said log,
Please read WP:AFDHOWTO on how to actually nominate an article, Or If you're struggling I could always nominate it on your behalf ?

You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply create an account. It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:
- Create new pages and rename pages
- Edit semi-protected pages
- Upload images
- Have your own watchlist, which shows when articles you are interested in have changed
If you edit without an account, your IP address (140.254.70.33) is used to identify you instead.
We hope that you choose to become a Wikipedian and create an account. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question and then place {{helpme}} before the question on this page. We also have an intuitive guide on editing if you're interested. By the way, please make sure to sign and date your talk page comments with four tildes (~~~~).
Happy editing! Robert McClenon (talk) 03:01, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
February 2017 edit
Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia and the articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to Bristol stool scale. Readers looking for accurate information will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, please use the sandbox instead, where you are given a certain degree of freedom in what you write. Reify-tech (talk) 18:25, 2 February 2017 (UTC)
