Northern Virginia Conservation Trust edit
Hi there. I saw your question regarding how to create an article about Northern Virginia Conservation Trust. First, I would recommend recreating this page in a subpage of your user-space, that will give you time to work on it without having to worry about it being deleted. You can create a user subpage by following the directions here. (Or if that doesn't make sense, just use User:Nvct/Northern Virginia Conservation Trust (once you make edits to that page and save it, it will be an existing subpage)). Make sure your new article doesn't have the problems listed above, it can't copy directly from another source, but needs to be re-written in your own words. Also, please see the guidelines at Your First Article, which explain a lot of the policies regarding Wikipedia articles, such as notability and reliable sourcing and verification, etc. Lastly, once your article is in a state that you think makes it in line with those policies, you can move it to article space, by clicking the move tab at top of the article, and then in the field for "New Title", putting the title of the article, i.e. Northern Virginia Conservation Trust. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to either ask here, accompanying your question with the {{helpme}} tag, or ask at the new contributor's help page.
