Fort Caroline

Your attempted changes to the Fort Caroline article have been reverted (removed) for a second time. This may be do to your unfamiliarity with Wikipedia's processes and standards. Articles on Wikipedia are immediately "live" and so no in-process material should be left in them. When making large changes or working on a page slowly, we recommend you create a sub-page of your user space and work on the changes there. For instance, User:Gator/Fort Caroline. Only when the changes are completed would the page be copied into the current article. Additionally the submission of large chunks of text - with captions to non-Wikipedia hosted images and blocks of non-Wikipedia style references - immediately raises concerns over copyright. What is the source for this block of text you have added? Is it your own writing? Have you examined the stated references to make sure they are correctly used? I hope you are not discouraged by your initial experience at Wikipedia and that you can soon learn the ropes are here. Rmhermen (talk) 14:21, 22 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
