Welcome!

Hello, KFish22, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Bacteria: Syntrophales moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Bacteria: Syntrophales. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it's poorly formatted. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 06:24, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Since Wikipedia already has a Syntrophales article, you should focus on improving that article, not creating a new duplicate article. If you need a refresher on how to do this, please review this training module or this video. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 21:28, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Bacteria: Syntrophales

Hello KFish22,

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username MPGuy2824, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I have tagged an article that you started, Bacteria: Syntrophales, for deletion, because there's already a page about that topic at Syntrophales. Please don't be discouraged; we appreciate your effort in creating new articles. To avoid this in the future, consider using the search function to find pages that already cover what you want to write about.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top. If the page is already deleted by the time you come across this message and you wish to retrieve the deleted material, please contact the deleting administrator.

For any further query, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|MPGuy2824}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

Hi KFish22. As explained above by your course's assigned wiki expert, Ian (Wiki Ed), please copy your new content to the existing article Syntrophales rather than publishing your draft as a separate article. It goes against Wikipedia guidelines to have two articles on the same subject. SilverLocust 💬 08:27, 11 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
