User talk:Uzthegeek

Welcome!

Hello, Uzthegeek, 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 User:Uzthegeek/sandbox, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

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 Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

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. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Questions or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! | Uncle Milty | talk | 12:58, 29 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Uzthegeek/sandbox

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on User:Uzthegeek/sandbox, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. | Uncle Milty | talk | 12:58, 29 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please avoid copy/pasting

Hi there. Just a gentle note to advise you against simply copying and pasting words from other websites, as you did with this diff. It is exactly the same text as the source you cited, which is copyright. We require editors to put anything they add into their own form of words, which they then release under a CC-BY-SA licence when they publish it here. Doing this, and avoiding close paraphrasing, is a skill that we all have to learn. I'll change it for you, but please don't do that again.

Risk

Yes, you can create an article by-passing Articles for Creation. But a flawed article may be tagged for Articles for Deletion, which is harder to survive than a Declined at AfC. David notMD (talk) 20:22, 15 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
