  • You don't need to read anything - anybody can edit; just go to an article and edit it. Be Bold, but please don't put silly stuff in - it will be removed very quickly, and will annoy people.
  • Ask for help. [http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=wikipedia-en-help Talk to us live], or edit this page, put {{helpme}} and describe what help you need. Someone will reply very quickly - usually within a few minutes.
  • Edit existing articles, before you make your own. Look at some subjects that you know about, and see if you can make them a bit better. For example, Wikipedia:Cleanup#2009.
  • When you're ready, read about Your first article. It should be about something well-known, and it will need references.

Good luck with editing; please drop me a line some time on my own talk page.

There's lots of information below. Once again, welcome to the fantastic world of Wikipedia!

    [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|Proposed deletion]] of [[Italian colonization of Americas]]

    Image:Ambox warning yellow.svg

    The article Italian colonization of Americas has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

    :Already deleted before, this is a second creation of an unsourced POV piece of pseudo-history by a problem user.

    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 {{Tlc|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 {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. The mayor of Yurp (talk) 01:51, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

    :It seems you got this automated message by mistake, I've also reverted a comment from brunodam. Sorry to bring trouble! The mayor of Yurp (talk) 02:09, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

    File:Ambox warning yellow.svg

    The article Italian colonization of the Americas has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

    :Crikey, not this again! The article is bogus, created years ago by an editor who is now banned, Brunodam, if I recall correctly. He used several sockpuppets to try and keep it on English WP. I changed it to Thornton expedition. Going to request deletion once again.

    While all constructive 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 {{Tlc|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 {{Tlc|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.
