Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 08:58, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

Will do. Sorry for any inconvenience, I'm new to this. MalibuSurfKing (talk) 09:20, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

Please use Wikipedia:Proposed_deletion (if it unlikely to be contested, or Wikipedia:Articles for deletion if somebody might or does contenst the proposal for deletion. Blanking should be avoided. Cheers Jim1138 (talk) 08:07, 9 September 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the tip, Jim! MalibuSurfKing (talk) 08:13, 9 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi Malibu, we're only allowed to add a prod tag to an article once, and if it's removed, the next step is to move forward to a full deletion discussion. There are instructions regarding how to set this up at WP:AfD. When I last looked at the instructions, they seemed complicated, but if you just clunk through them, the process is actually quite simple. If you need help with it, feel free to ask me on my talk page, or on the Teahouse page that you've already found. Many thanks, SlimVirgin ^(talk) 20:13, 9 September 2012 (UTC)
