You wrote: "I have written two new articles: Maya Maize God and Howler Monkey Gods. What will happen to them? They seem still to be in limbo somehow." You don't need to use the Articles for Creation process now that you are registered. Please see Wikipedia:Articles for creation/Wizard-Already Registered. You could create Maya Maize God just like you did Howler Monkey Gods. --Geniac 15:15, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

{helpme}I wrote an article (stub) on the Maya Moon Goddess, applied the necessary formulas, and dit not get the opportunity to preview it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Retal (talk • contribs)

Hi, the article you wrote never got saved. Once you write anything on any page in the edit mode, you do get the opportunity to preview it. Simply click on Show Preview tab below the edit box. Once you are satisfied, then click on Save page. Does this answer your question? — Lost(talk) 09:53, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
