Hello, SusanDor, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

Wikipedia:Topical index.
If you need help cleaning up the article for Lori Laitman, just let me know. I'm the one that put the tags at the top of the article so I thought I'd offer my assistance since it looks like you're new here. Dismas| (talk) 01:41, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
Hi, I noticed that you removed most of the content for the Rod Gilfry article. I hope you didn't think that by having the tags at the top of the page, I meant to say that the article needed to be shorter or anything. I merely put them there to call attention to the fact that the article needed links to other articles, categories, and such. I don't understand much about music so I didn't feel comfortable making the changes myself. Now that the article is smaller, I went ahead and put links and categories in.

Hi Dismas, Yes, I'm new here. I'm a freelance writer and my specialty is music. I was so blown away by the tags, I just removed content. I only hope I'll be able to find my way back to this talk page so I can see how to proceed.
Thanks.

- I'm sorry that you thought that content had to be removed. Quite the contrary! If you can expand on the articles, that would be best for the Wikipedia. As I said above, the tags were only to call attention to the fact that they needed links to other articles, categories, etc. I hope you continue to expand those articles as well as create new ones on notable people, places, etc.
- If you find yourself wondering if someone is notable enough to be included, see WP:BIO for Wikipedia's notability standards.
- As for the Lori Laitman article, it would be great if you could discuss what awards she's won to give credence to her notability.
- And for finding my talk page, you can simply click on the word "talk" in my signature. If you have any questions, please, don't be afraid to ask. Dismas| (talk) 01:37, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
- I've added the external link to the Gilfry article. Take a look at how I did it and try to add the link for the Laitman article yourself. I can't do it all for you, ya know. :-) Good night, Dismas| (talk) 01:32, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
The article Marquita Lister 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.
