Welcome

Hello, Mark1voman, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that one of the first articles you created appears to be an article about yourself. This is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians—as this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. Your user page, however, is a great place to write about yourself, making sure to stay within user page guidelines. Just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit it normally.

The page you created about yourself has been or will shortly be speedily deleted from Wikipedia, but if you want to use the content from it, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

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

Mark Avery

edit

Hi. I noticed that you created an article on Mark Avery and also uploaded photograph of him taken by his wife, that you claim you are the author of. Could you clarify if you are Mark Avery? Is so, you should be aware of Wikipedia guidelines on creating autobiographies.

By the way, the meta data on the photo suggests it was taken in September 2009, not 2010.

Thanks. --Escape Orbit (Talk) 11:48, 14 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
