User talk:Oberstain

Welcome!

Hello, Oberstain, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created is an unreferenced biography of a living person. The Wikipedia community has decided that all biographies of living persons (BLPs) created after 18 March 2010 must have reliable sources, or they can be deleted.

This is not a judgement of the quality or notability of your article. If someone has put a {{prod blp}} template on the article (click this link to see what it looks like), you have ten days to add at least one reliable source to the article. Once you have added at least one reliable source to the article, you can remove the template. (To learn more about what is a reliable source, read Wikipedia:Reliable sources, and to learn how to cite sources, read Wikipedia:Citing sources. Or if you want an easier newcomer's look at citing sources, read Help:External links and references first.)

Going over some of the pages below will help you get a sense of Wikipedia, and knowing about Wikipedia's most important policies will help keep you out of trouble here (click [show] to see the links):

Getting started:

• Wikipedia:Introduction – a great first look at Wikipedia
• Wikipedia:Wiki markup – talks about how to make bold and italic text and links
• Wikipedia:Tutorial – a tutorial on all things Wikipedia
• Help:Wikipedia: The Missing Manual – a handy guide to Wikipedia

Important policies:

• Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons – Wikipedia's policy on biographies of living persons
• Wikipedia:Reliable sources – Wikipedia's policy on what sources to use
• Wikipedia:NPOV – Wikipedia's neutral point-of-view policy for articles
• Wikipedia:Notability – talks about how to determine whether or not a subject is notable enough for inclusion in Wikipedia
• Wikipedia:3RR – Wikipedia's three-revert rule, which says you shouldn't revert a single page more than 3 times in 24 hours
• Wikipedia:Deletion policy and Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion – two pages that talk about reasons for deleting an article. The second page talks about special reasons that allow pages to be deleted quickly and without discussion (attack pages, copyright violations, etc.)

Asking questions:

• Wikipedia:Questions – tells you where to ask questions
• * Wikipedia:New contributors' help page – this is a great place to ask for help when you're new to Wikipedia
• * Wikipedia:Help desk – a place to ask Wikipedia-related questions
• * Wikipedia:Reference desk – a place to ask general-knowledge questions
• * {{Help me}} – placing {{Help me}} on your talk page followed by a request will alert editors that you need help.
• * If you know what IRC is and how to use it, take a look at Wikipedia:IRC to find out how to get help on Wikipedia's IRC channels.

Article writing and editing:

• Wikipedia:Starting an article
• Wikipedia:Your first article – has tips and ticks for making your first article great
• Wikipedia:How to write a great article
• Wikipedia:Simplified Manual of Style – guidelines on writing style, what date formats to use, article layout, you name it
• Wikipedia:WikiProjects – describes different WikiProjects (projects that focus on article writing or maintenance for a specific topic)
• Wikipedia:Vandalism – what vandalism is and how to revert it

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

Proposed deletion of Anna Ivanovna Petrova

Hello, Oberstain. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Anna Ivanovna Petrova, for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. If you don't want Anna Ivanovna Petrova to be deleted, please add a reference to the article.

If you don't understand this message, you can leave a note on my talk page.

Thanks, Vanjagenije (talk) 16:33, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

February 2014

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Anna Ivanovna Petrova may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:

• Paul Church in Kiev; painting the ceiling " Constellations ." Resort merchant by Pyotr Gubonina (restoration of the sanatorium " Gurzufsky "
