User talk:Mgbetts
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Welcome!
Hello, Mgbetts, and welcome to Wikipedia! There's a great community here, so get stuck in right away! Before you start, here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- Tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
It may seem a bit daunting at the moment, but don't worry, and don't be embarassed if you make mistakes - it's all part of being a Wikipedian! And whenever you post a comment on a talk page, remember to sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); this will sign your message along with the time. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or just add {{helpme}} to your talk page and someone will show up and help you out. Again, welcome!

The article Stacy Bragger you have recently written may not meet Wikipedia's generally accepted criteria for inclusion of biographies. It has likely been marked for deletion. Don't worry, there are several other options:
- Create an entry for yourself on one of the many social networking websites.
- Many ISPs allow you to create your own website, often at no extra charge.
With the above options your biography will be protected from being edited by others, unlike a Wikipedia article.
- You may create a wiki at EditThis.info or one of the other wiki farms.
- If you are attempting to make an entry for genealogical purposes, you may find WikiTree.org a useful site (but please do not simply copy material to Wikitree unless you are the original author - their license terms are different from Wikipedia's).
- If you are, or intend to become, a regular Wikipedia contributor, please use your user page (user:Mgbetts) to post biographical information about yourself.
