Welcome!

Hello, Laferg69, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Robertcbassler, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

New to Wikipedia? Please consider taking a look at the our introductory tutorial or reviewing the contributing to Wikipedia page to learn the basics about editing. Below are a few other good pages about article creation.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions ask me on my talk page or you can just type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome!  JavaHurricane 02:00, 28 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Robertcbassler. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Robert C. Bassler. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Robert C. Bassler. If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. JavaHurricane 02:00, 28 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

Robert C. Bassler moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Robert C. Bassler,is much too promotional and over-personal as written to remain published. I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

You have uploaded a number of photographs of works by Robert C. Bassler, saying that the copyright is yours. NB for a two-dimensional work of art, this means that you own the copyright of what's depicted. Do you own the copyright of works by Bassler? -- Hoary (talk) 01:05, 27 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

No, Robert C Bassler owns them, but has agreed to allow them to be used by anyone Laferg69 (talk) 23:05, 7 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for taking the time to review my article. I changed the format to match WP and noted Bassler wrote the article and removed any external links. Please let me know how I can get this published. Laferg69 (talk) 23:02, 7 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
