[edit] Greetings
Welcome to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is always happy to have enthusiastic new editors who are willing to add to the database of knowledge we have here.
I notice that one of your articles has been deleted 3 times in 4 days. Allow me to urge you to review the following pages to get an idea of what sort of articles you can put up on Wikipedia that won't get deleted as quickly or as frequently:
WP:AUTO

Hopefully these links will help enhance your understanding of how to create a wiki-worthy article that all may admire for years to come. Good luck, and happy editing. → Ξxtreme Unction {yakłblah} 19:56, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
Some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Spencer bingham may not be sufficiently well-known to merit articles of their own. The Wikipedia community welcomes newcomers, and encourages them to become Wikipedians. On Wikipedia, each user is entitled to a user page in which they can describe themselves, and this article's content may be incorporated into that page. However, to merit inclusion in the encyclopedia proper, a subject must be notable. We encourage you to write or improve articles on notable subjects. --Fuhghettaboutit 02:10, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Jim junior nice
I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Jim junior nice, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Importance). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:Jim junior nice. If you remove the {{dated prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

[edit] Just a heads-up
Hi, I noticed that somebody tagged one of your pages for "speedy deletion".
A tag has been placed on Spencer bingham, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be a biographical account about a person, group of people, or band, but it does not indicate how or why he/she/they is/are notable. If you can indicate why Spencer bingham is really notable, I advise you to edit the article promptly, and also put a note on Talk:Spencer bingham. Any admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles. You might also want to read our general biography criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that admins should wait a while for you to assert his/her/their notability, please affix the template {{hangon}}
to the page, and then immediately add such an assertion. It is also a very good idea to add citations from reliable sources to ensure that your article will be verifiable.
