Hello! Billy Hentenaar is not the appropriate spot to post information about yourself, because that's the encyclopedic part of the Wikipedia website. User:Billy hentenaar, however, is all yours to use more or less as you wish. Please see Wikipedia:Introduction and Wikipedia:User page for more information. - CobaltBlueTony 15:04, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
The article you created at Billy Hentenaar was listed for deletion as An article about a real person that does not assert the importance or significance of its subject, criterion 7 in the criteria for speedy deletion, Articles section. Since it appears to be about you I've moved it to your user space instead, which was probably what you intended in the first place (a common mistake among newcomers!).
If you really did mean to create an article about yourself please be aware that this is often considered a bad idea, even if you do meet the guidelines for inclusion of biographies.
I know Wikipedia can be confusing for new editors, so you are welcome to ask for help at the help desk or on my talk page. - CobaltBlueTony 15:27, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for experimenting with the page Risk on Wikipedia. Your test worked, and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. - CobaltBlueTony 15:32, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome your help to create new content, but your recent additions (such as Calf-slap) are considered nonsense. Please refrain from creating nonsense articles. If you want to test things out, edit the sandbox instead. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Mhking 02:17, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
- Please stop removing speedy deletion notices from articles that you have created yourself, as you did with Calf-slap. If you continue, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --Mhking 02:22, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
I've added the "{{prod}}" template to your user page (User:Billy hentenaar), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy).
Please note that the purpose of a user page is not as personal homepage or used as a general webhosting service, but as way for active editors of Wikipedia to introduce themselves to other editors. If you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues here or on my user talk page. You may remove the deletion notice, and the page will not be deleted for the moment, but note that it may still be sent to Miscellany for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.
