Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Friendly note that is not a template

edit

I see you've gotten a bunch of template messages, so I'm leaving you a personal note about the article you're working on. You might find Your First Article more helpful than this note. (a) Double-check to make sure that this book is notable. Has it been reviewed in more than one significant source? (b) Double-check to make sure that the information in the article can be found in the available sources. (c) Carefully remove any language that might be read as advertising from the article, to keep it as neutral in tone as possible. Wikipedia does want to have an article about every notable book. Wikipedia also does not want to contain any advertising. It is, as you can imagine, a challenge to make sure that both of those things happen. Have fun! -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 17:18, 12 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of The Lake of Dead Languages

edit
 

The article The Lake of Dead Languages has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This appears to be a student's book report, comprising large amounts of original analysis, with no indications that the subject book meets the criteria for inclusion.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Original research

edit

When writing for Wikipedia, you must not add your own analysis, as you did at The Lake of Dead Languages. Your "character constellation" is clearly a hand-drawn analysis tool of your own devising, and your character descriptions also appear to be your own. (If I am wrong, please cite a source.)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Cover, The Lake of Dead Languages.jpeg)

edit

  Thanks for uploading File:Cover, The Lake of Dead Languages.jpeg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:22, 14 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted.
