Hi Anon126. @ Anon126: Thanks for your thorough and very helpful response. I will work on that. Much clearer now on the difference between citations and references which is "no difference" :) Today I will make a request to take the page out of deletion so that I may work on editing Ms. Fontaines. Thanks for offering step by step answers and for making this feel less daunting. Venus2211 ( talk) 18:11, 9 May 2014 (UTC)Venus2211

Hi!
Thanks to your help I think things are improving though still messy. I tried to upload images after I made further edits and references to the page for Anastasia S. Fontaines. Is there an editor that could help me with adding images. I looked it up and it seems as though I needs someone to do it for me due to being a novice at this and new. I am in no way ready to create 10 pages yet. Getting through this one will be a major triumph. Then I will do more.
Thanks thanks thanks Venus2211 ( talk) 23:30, 10 May 2014 (UTC)Venus2211
"@anon126". User:Anon126/Anon126 I did misread that. Thanks for spelling it out. I feel like a 2 year old on here. I will think out the image situation. If it's a copyright image from somewhere like Getty or Wireimage on a carpet? That would work? I believe at those carpet events only media are allowed to take photos. If it has their stamp on it would that help. I noticed that some of the images have a "LOGO Stamp" with the copyright media company on it. Does that help in the images criteria?

. As you might guess, it contains messages for multiple issues. You can remove individual issues as they are solved by taking out specific {{...}}

Hi Anon126. @
Anon126: ::To editor
Anon126:
Thanks thanks thanks for making that clear. I came to wikipedia today and found more issues. The page is up for review for deletion and a whole lot of the work I added was removed. I thought I'd addressed many of the needed criteria along with adding the dates requested (re the box you repsonded with that included the orphan page text) Feeling down about my page. Do you have any further pointers? I provided real and reputable magazines, works of MS. Fontaines and outside links verifying Ms. Fontaines attendance/participation at functions relating to the biography. I was feeling so proud of the article and it's development. I went to sleep happy that I'd done so much. I came back to the page very disappointed . It just needs the time and understanding on my part to make it work and to me the criteria seems more grey than black and white. The only option I have is to make a choice and edit the choice as the criteria is not that clear. Any suggestions ??? Thanks thanks thanks :( Venus2211 ( talk) 18:23, 11 May 2014 (UTC)Venus2211

Thanks for your help. Still having trouble. The page was deleted before I had a change to enter my edit and information. Now that I have entered some of it it's not appearing properly. I enetered the following with no luck. Can you help with this? What am I doing incorrectly that is making it not appear on the edit page? Do editors always re delete a submission before you've worked on it? Is there something I can do to keep that from happening. I am doing this on my free time and am having a hard time with it clearly. Thanks Thanks Venus2211 ( talk) 03:34, 10 May 2014 (UTC)Venus2211

I have contacted the journalist who wrote the articles in both Marie Claire and Instyle on Ms. Fontaines one is a 2 page and the other a 3 page. Now where do I need to send/post the proof that those articles existed. They are not online. There have been photographs taken of the articles.

I was confused at the proof part as in other notes and on the deletion consideration page it refers to no "online" articles and there is no mention of the articles that were removed that are not online. I also am not clear on what would be considered relevant. What would you say wikipedia editors would specify as a relevant quotation? I want to do it right.

Dear Anon126,
Hope you're doing well over there!
It's me again.
I have made a number of editions in the article here: /info/en/?search=Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Sebastian_Springer
- I added more independent citations. - I also cited some other research papers that have discussed his work. - I added some new verifiable information.
Please take a look and let me know if the article is ready for creation or still needs some more changes.
On another note, I have requested changing my username from GlobalScientists150 to Sourcecode12.
Kind Regards, — Preceding unsigned comment added by GlobalScientists150 ( talk • contribs) 17:00, 10 May 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for the heads up!
It seems that Sourcecode12 username is now working. I will avoid using Globalscientists150.
Waiting for your response regarding the article and if it requires further editing.

Hi Anon,
I am currently writing a page about a local company near me /info/en/?search=Draft:Trustatrader.com however I keep getting declined with this message:
The proposed article is not suitable for Wikipedia. Because Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, articles on fictional subjects should cover their real-world context and contain sourced analysis, offering detail on a work's development, impact or historical significance—not just a summary of the plot. You may wish to add this content to an existing article. As anyone can edit Wikipedia, you are free to do so yourself
Do you have any tips or ideas in which I could write about to help get this article submitted?
Thank you for your time, it is really appreciated.

Hi Anon126
I have 2 questions. I recently created my article & I'm working on editing the tone. I've made some edits because it was requested - do I wait for the editor to review and hopefully remove the tags? I also have the old content of the article in my sandbox space, but I'm afraid to delete it because I'm not sure if it might wipe out the content on my article space. I don't want the sandbox content up for Canadian Registered Safety Professional because I have the new info in the article. Please advise, because an editor stated that the sandbox is a draft namespace & I should either remove it to my userspace (what is that?) or remove the {{ user sandbox}} template. Whenever I need to go to the article that I'm editing, I type the name Canadian Registered Safety Professional in the search box and edit it. Is this correct? Sorry for being the novice. Thanks in advance for your help AdBCWi14 ( talk) 23:51, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
