User talk:Wonderduck

Welcome to Wikipedia.

When you get a chance, drop us a note at Wikipedia:New user log to introduce yourself.

I'm afraid your articles on 3-felmic-dio-gometahepazine-tripdaecyn and Streptomycine-amphemaline-diotwophon-C are likely to be deleted unless they are filled out a little more. (Is it an antibiotic?) A stub needs to say clearly what the article is about and why it is important, less than this is a substub and risks deletion.

Anyway, if it happens please don't take it personally. One of my early articles was listed for deletion (and far more rudely). I hope you find things to work on that will be more rewarding.

Some hints. You can sign your name on talk pages by using " ~~~ " for your username and " ~~~~ " for your username and a timestamp. We normally do this on discussion pages as a courtesy, but not in articles.

• Welcome is a good place to start.
• Wikipedia:How does one edit a page gives editing help.
• Wikipedia:Manual of Style gives formatting info.
• Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines tell about the principles we operate on. It's important, but don't try to read it all now.
• Wikipedia:Help covers a broad range of useful topics.
• Wikipedia:Village pump is a place to ask questions.
• Wikipedia:Show preview explains how to double-check your edits before saving.

And please feel free to drop me a question on my talk page if there's anything you think I can help with. Andrewa 05:58, 6 Aug 2004 (UTC)
