[edit] Your help request

Hi, glad you find the welcome box useful! I think that search engines take a few days to spot new articles on Wikipedia, so hopefully your articles should start to show up soon. One thing that may help, and is a good thing to do anyway, is to introduce links to your articles from other related subjects, so if other political theorists have referenced Khan's work, it may be possible to put an appropriate link into that article. Good categorisation is also important, I've created a couple of the categories you have used, so now they show up blue instead of red. Have a look through the existing categories at Category:Political theories or Category:Democracy or Category:Political theorists to see if any are appropriate to your articles, you'll probably find some articles in those categories which should be linked to the new ones, or to which links from your articles would be useful. I hope this helps - unfortunately I don't really know enough about political theory to be more specific!

There may be a Wikiproject that covers your area of interest. Wikiprojects are places where people with common interest can work together to improve their articles and share ideas for new contributions. I'll have a look for you and see if I can find one that could be helpful.

I've put an {{orphan}} tag on one of your articles - this is nothing to worry about, it just lets other editors know that it needs other articles linked to it. Anyway, I hope all this is helpful, and if you need any more help then please ask - Wikipedia can be deeply confusing at times! DuncanHill 13:53, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProjects

I've found a couple of WikiProjects that may be useful to you, they are WikiProject Politics and WikiProject Philosophy. Have a look at their pages and see what you think. DuncanHill 13:57, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
