A belated welcome! edit
Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, 199.83.71.170. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.
Again, welcome! Wikih101 (talk) 20:52, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Canton Marathon, a page you created has not been edited in at least 180 days. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace. If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it. If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13. Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot (talk) 15:45, 15 August 2013 (UTC)
Your article submission Canton Marathon edit
Hello 199.83.71.170. It has been over six months since you last edited your article submission, entitled Canton Marathon.
The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code. Please note, however, that Articles for Creation is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Canton Marathon}}, paste it in the edit box at this link, click "Save", and an administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. HasteurBot (talk) 00:00, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
Line breaks edit
I'm assuming you can manage spaces (that long key at the bottom of your keyboard, just in case you genuinely were having trouble...), but I think you're struggling with line breaks, yes? If you start a new line in Wikitext, it won't be registered unless you either
add an extra blank line, or
use the HTML command <br> at the end of the line (or within the text; it will force a line break wherever you put it).
Additional blank lines are somewhat preferred; they make it easier to read the text editor. Hope that helps. Yunshui 雲水 13:11, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
April 2022 edit
Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently added commentary to an article, Restored Church of God. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them, and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. However, keep in mind that even on the talk page of an article, you should limit your discussion to improving the article. Article talk pages are not the place to discuss opinions of the subject of articles, nor are such pages a forum. Thank you. –Skywatcher68 (talk) 15:38, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
