Hello and welcome to Wikipedia!
Here are some tips to help you get started:
- Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
- If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
- Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
- Remember Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
- Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!
Good luck!
P.S. One last helpful hint. To sign your posts like I did above (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).
[edit] re: Arts and crafts resources
Good evening. As you may already know, the article you initiated titled "Arts and crafts resources" was nominated for deletion on 8 January 2005. The main concerns about the article were
- The inherent point of view in the selection of which resources to include and which to exclude. Wikipedia tries to avoid such value judgments.
- The appropriateness of this list as an encyclopedia article. Except for the very nice graphics and the descriptions, this page can be seen as a mere list of links. (Please see What Wikipedia is not.)
Several people recognized that you have clearly done a lot of work on this page and it's a shame to let it go completely. They asked whether this would be a more appropriate contribution to Wikibooks. I'd like to ask your help and thoughts about that.
In addition, I have my own questions about the graphics. Our GNU Free Documentation License is quite specific that all images (and other material) must be releasable. The images you added for this page are not sourced. I'd also like your help documenting the permission to use the images. (It's usually noted on the image's discussion page.)
In the meantime, I've moved the article to a sub-section of your user space. See User:Chrissy snow/Arts and crafts resources. While there, no article in the main encyclopedia space should link to it. You can however continue to improve it to address the concerns raised in the VfD discussion or we can transwiki it to Wikibooks. Please leave me a note on my talk page once you've had a chance to think about it. Rossami (talk) 22:47, 24 Jan 2005 (UTC)
