Welcome!
Hello, Koratan, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Clive Grossman, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.
You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard. Thank you.
There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{ helpme}} on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:
- Your first article
- Biographies of living persons
- How to write a great article
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Help pages
- Tutorial
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

The article Clive Grossman has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{ prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Hello Koratan, and welcome to Wikipedia. With regard to the above mentioned template, there are two reasons why I will revert the edit again:
- Hong Kong is not internationally recognized as a country, it is only an administrative region of China.
- Consensus was reached a few months ago to not have prime lists such as "List of power stations in the United Kingdom", and to list each country within the UK instead.
Kind regards. Rehman( +) 10:49, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks. First, there are countries that are not independent states. Second, the lists and templates for power stations aren't so unique that they don't have to follow other lists and templates on English Wikipedia. Koratan ( talk) 11:08, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
Category:Hong Kong people of Zimbabwean descent, which you created, has been nominated for deletion, merging, or renaming. If you would like to participate in the discussion, you are invited to add your comments at the category's entry on the Categories for discussion page. Thank you.

I've noticed your contribution history has started out on a bad foot with some back and forth edit reverting with other contributors. As a "new" user you should be aware that Wikipedia prefers users use discussion and talk pages about disagreements instead of reverting to preferred versions. SchmuckyTheCat ( talk)
