  Use Spaces  
Spaces usually come after punctuation marks.
Instead of this:
  • I like bunnies(rabbits).They are not only cute,but friendly too.
Try this:
  • I like bunnies (rabbits). They are not only cute, but friendly too.

  Protect Your Article  
1. Putting lots and lots of references into your article protects it from being deleted.
2. Put references in your article like this example:
Rabbits are cute.<ref>http://www.about-rabbits.com</ref>
3. Add this to the bottom of the article:
==References==
{{reflist}}
4. Don't use Baidu.baike, Hudong, Tianya and sites that are not professionally written.
5. Write in your own words. Just the facts. Don't copy and paste.
6. Make your article style like other articles.

Your article

edit

First of all, good subject! But let's take a look at your writing: Yyhuatai means a platform with Yuhuayu means rain,hua means flower,tai means platform) pebbles. Add the 汉字 for Yuhuatai. Correct the spelling. Add spaces (空格) after . and , Let us know the 出版 information of this book, and it's Chinese name. Date? Place of publication? Link like this Nanjing, Jiangsu, to relevant articles. Also to this article, by your classmate: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuhua_Stone Is Yungguang right? It doesn't look like pinyin. Not Yongguang? Try to check your own work. Ask friends and editors to check it. Add a few more references. 100 m high? Not wide? Those are your photos, right? Keep up the good work.
