Hi, Miner. Thanks for the message. Yes, I'm happy to help you. Post your questions here. By the way, when you post on a Talk page, new messages go at the bottom of the page. Sign your Talk page messages with four tildes (like this: ~~~~), which will automatically insert the date and links to your user page. All the best! -- Ssilvers (talk) 17:12, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

Do you have any specific questions at present? I moved your Hagsfiends material here for now. You can work on it there without being interrupted. One of the essential things you need to do is find several mainstream published sources, such as book reviews and analytical articles about the books, that contain all of the information given in the article. Then you need to cite those sources throughout the article. If you cannot find such sources, then the topic is not encyclopedic (what we call "notable"). Please read this Wikipedia guideline: WP:Note, and also see WP:BKD. If it is not encylopedic, then move on to another topic. All the best! -- Ssilvers (talk) 22:32, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

How do I handle edit wars? I have been involved in a small one. Miner1212 (talk) 00:16, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

Hi. Which article are you talking about? Usually, the best thing to do is to discuss the proposed change on the article's talk page to try to reach a WP:CONSENSUS. Do not edit the article until the discussion is completed and a resolution has been reached -- be patient, as this usually takes several days or more. -- Ssilvers (talk) 02:35, 14 February 2015 (UTC)

{{unblock|I have long abandoned the account that I have been seen as a sockpuppet. This is my real account that I have done edits with. Please investigate of miner7347's activities in wikipediea. You will find that I have not done edits in a while. Please unblock me .Also, I have not abused wiki but, if you see it as abuse, I will spend more time in the sandbox.
