Welcome!

Hello, RSWeinstein, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Telepathology, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Telepathology, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Footnote formatting

[edit]

Dr. Weinstein, I've given you an example of how to do footnotes in your first footnote. If you need to cite a work more than once, give it an arbitrary name in the ref tag, like this <ref name=fn1> and the next time you want to cite it, all you have to enter is <ref name=fn1 />. Good luck with this, TRANSPORTERMAN (TALK) 21:15, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

PS: The {{reflist}} tag makes the footnotes appear at the bottom of the page. Once you've got 3-4 of them properly formatted, you'll probably want to change it to {{reflist|2}} to put them into two columns. — TRANSPORTERMAN (TALK) 21:43, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
