Hello, Captaintoast, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

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, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

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. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Questions or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! Meters (talk) 01:26, 6 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, introducing inappropriate pages, such as Derpagon, is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to introduce inappropriate pages to Wikipedia, as you did at Derpagon, you may be blocked from editing. If you need guidance on how to create appropriate pages, try using the Article Wizard. There's a reason we keep deleting it. Meters (talk) 01:33, 6 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

You didn't invent it, and it already has a name, hendecagon. Meters (talk) 01:38, 6 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

  This is your last warning. The next time you remove a speedy deletion notice from a page you have created yourself, as you did at Derpagon, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Leave it alone. I don't care if you use your IP or your account. As far as I am concerned you are on your last warning for both. Meters (talk) 01:48, 6 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked temporarily from editing for abuse of editing privileges. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.
