I have recently read Les Pianos mécaniques (first published in 1962) by Henri-François Rey and, having never encountered this author before, went on to Wikipedia to find out more about him. When I clicked on to the underscored line about this book there was a request from Wikipedia to provide a summary of it. I duly did so, and attempted to send it, but it was rejected. Can you advise how I should proceed?
Thanks
- I can't really tell you what happened, but it seems like ti was a technical issue. If you want to get a little more familiar with the technical aspects of editing before you try again, feel free to use, what we call a "sandbox". You can create any page in your userspace you want, for example User:RP1957/Sandbox or User:RP1957/Test (go ahead, click them, write something, and save it). You won't break anything, and if you want them deleted - though it's fine to leave them there indefinitely - either post another help me request, or put {{db-self}} at the top. If you want to create the page, but want someone to help you out a little, you can also use the article wizard, but beware that the review process there is terribly backlogged, and it could take weeks before you receive any review. In the mean time, ask as many question as you'd like, either here with a help-me as you did just now, or at the teahouse, a place for new editors to ask questions. Welcome to Wikipedia, and sorry for the rocky start! Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 19:38, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
