Hello, Coolred90, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I am writing you concerning your article about Sports Experts. As I do not know the subject area well I want to ask you, whether it is realy that important in your area. For me, 5 year old chain of stores does not seem to by important enough, to be listed in encyclopedia. But I may be wrong, as the chain may have eg. significant impact on local culcture. Please try to work on the article and explain the importance of the Sports Experts. Otherwise it can be considered to be an advertisment or vanity page.

[edit] Image Tagging for Image:Qbfl_logo.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Qbfl_logo.gif. The image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to indicate why we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies under Wikipedia's fair use guidelines, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use. If you want the image to be deleted, tag it as {{db-unksource}}.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of image pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

[edit] Deleting talk page

Deleting your talk page and especialy criticism and warnings is not considered to be good maners in Wikipedia. You should reply instead. When your talk page becomes full, it is best to move old conversation to archive. --Jan Smolik 19:48, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] QBFL

You cannot delete articles yourself, even if you created them. Only admins can do that and only when there is a consensus about deletion. You can propose article for deletion (see WP:PROD for help), or start a discussion in articles for deletion (see WP:AFD). On the other hand, I would not worry about that. Controversy is not a bad thing as it helps finding consensus. If you wrote articles yourself (and not just a cut/paste them from somewhere) you did not do anything wrong. You in a good faith thought it is interesting for readers and that it should be in Wikipedia. If majority of Wikipedians thinks opposite articles will get deleted but it is rather a thing of consensus than your fault. You should not feel guilty about that.

I cannot judge notability of QBFL as I do not know anything about it. But if I were you I would not start new team articles (as it might be useless job if they get deleted) but rather explained what QBFL is in the main article. Team info can be merged into QBFL article. As for style do not use any "Comming soon" or "To be continued" notices. It is not Wikipedia style. If you want to tell something to other Wikipedians (like "I will continue writing after my math exam next week") please use the talk page.

One more thing. The QBFL article was moved to the Quebec Bantam Football League and QBFL is only a redirect. I have seen you removed the redirect from QBFL and returned original text and now we have two articles with the same content. If you will further edit articles, edit Quebec Bangam Football League and not QBFL. I will change it back to the redirect page. --Jan Smolik 11:31, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
