Your recent reverts

Although the recent additions to American Horror Story were poorly formatted, your reverts of them were in poor judgement. They were not vandalism. I have reworded and properly sourced them. Please be careful in the future, even going so far as checking the additions. Thank you. — Wyliepedia 18:09, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

March 2014

Thank you for your recent contributions, such as Fresh start. Getting started creating new articles on Wikipedia can be tricky, and you might like to try creating a draft version first, which you can then ask for feedback on if necessary, with less risk of deletion. Do make sure you also read help available to you, including Your First Article and the Tutorial. You might also like to try the Article Wizard, which has an option to create a draft version. Thank you. Fiddle Faddle 18:57, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Fresh start

The article Fresh start has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

A potentially pleasant embryo essay or dictionary definition, but there is nothing notable about it. However pleasant it may be it is not material for an encyclopaedia.

While all constructive 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.

The value of making an edit, then waiting before clicking on save

Hi! I noticed that some of your edits are being met with skepticism. I too am a new editor. One of the things I've found valuable in learning to edit Wikipedia is pausing before clicking on save. Sometimes I just leave the edit page up, and move on to another activity. Sometimes when I come back, my computer has suffered a glitch, and my edit has disappeared. That can be a good thing. I can then be free to make a fresh start, or have valuable second thoughts. Editing Wikipedia is not a race. Hang back in the pack and wait to see what other editors do. That could be the path to making valuable contributions to Wikipedia without causing more work for other editors. - Neonorange (talk) 01:22, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

Which one did you see...?Mr. Guye (talk) 01:23, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

Well, more than one. I have a short watch list of articles that shows all changes to these articles. I can then:

• see the kind of changes other editors make
• revert an edit that seems to be a step backwards in clarity or precision, or unconstructive, or deliberate vandalism
• sometimes a change spurs me to make follow-up edits
• keep an eye on a few articles on which I plan to make major improvements (real soon now).

That's how I happened to see your edit to Fannie Lou Hamer.

When an edit interests me, I can check on other contributions the editor has made, and learn. I spend much more time learning how Wikipedia works than I do on making an edit. Consequently, I average only a few edits a day. I may get more productive - or not.

The short answer to your question includes the new articles you've started on short phrases; the ones that have been nominated for speedy deletion. I'd suggest you think about why there may not already have been an article on Fresh start, or Multi-syllabic. - Neonorange (talk) 01:56, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

1. I use the Watchlist frequently as well.
2. I learned a lot about how Wikipedia works long before this.
3. I did not create, nor did I ask to keep the Multi-syllabic page. Notice that I never said anything in the debate.
4. The Recent Changes link at the left side of your Wikipedia page under "Interaction" works well for the same "checking on other editors" functions that you use the watchlist. Mr. Guye (talk) 02:15, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

inre Rustlers (film)

I have declined your proposed deletion. We do not use both a proposed deletion AND an AFD for a film topic. And please note under WP:DEL#REASON, simply being stubby is not a deletion rationale. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 02:31, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

Illegitimacy (law) listed at Redirects for discussion

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Illegitimacy (law). Since you had some involvement with the Illegitimacy (law) redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 17:14, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

And do not remove the RfD or retarget while the RfD is open. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 17:30, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

WP:OVERLINK

It not only includes WP:SEAOFBLUE problems, but also linking of well-known words where the Wikipedia article is misleading or adds nothing. United States is an example. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 06:04, 26 March 2014 (UTC)

Page deletion on Montgrove college

You posted the deletion notification templates on the user's userpage, not their talk page. Just FYI. EvergreenFir (talk) 04:58, 27 March 2014 (UTC)
