- You're welcome, Hezaa.
- The basics of editing on the Wikipedia are pretty easy, but there a few gotchas. The most common is probably American editors "correcting" the spelling of articles that use British English (e.g. "behaviour" to "behavior") (and Commonwealth Wikipedians doing the reverse). Another fairly common problem is Wikipedia beginners uploading images that can't be used because of copyright or other problems. I have been editing here for almost a year, so I know most of the ins and outs. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
- One suggestion: To practice editing, and to test some of your formatting, it is best to create your own personal sandbox as a subpage under your user page. If you click on the following link, this will create your personal sandbox: User:Hezaa/sandbox.
- Another suggestion: From your edits, it looks like you like to copy-edit. There are a number of pages and WikiProjects for people who like to do those "cleanup" tasks. There are also some special Tools that can help. You can check the List of WikiProjects for a list of the currently active WikiProjects. The Specific improvements section near the bottom lists the projects involved in cleanup tasks.
- For spell-checking, my personal recommendation is to use the Mozilla Firefox internet web browser with the SpellBound extension installed. BlankVerse 08:53, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
The article Carpe Noctem has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Non-notable. Only notability claim is an inherited one for having published a comic strip.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 16:02, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
