I wrote I guess a starting article in my sandbox, can I get someone to look over it and put it wherever its suppose to go. It was listed in the missing articles page. Also this captcha thing is annoying. Lastly, I can't find the page that had the article to look for more =/ WeGotAManDown (talk) 06:11, 9 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

I think I got it, not sure now. How do I know if its made? WeGotAManDown (talk) 06:23, 9 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

Kim Steinmetz is now in mainspace, and has thus "gone live". It looks as though you copy-and-pasted the text from your sandbox, which isn't really the correct way to go about it - the appropriate course of action would have been to move your sandbox to mainspace, which retains full attribution of the edits. However, since you're the only contributor, this isn't really a problem. Well done on your first article! Yunshui  07:38, 9 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

Thanks! How would I go about moving it in the future? WeGotAManDown (talk) 17:58, 9 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

In response to your feedback edit

Seems like you did it :) (Kim Steinmetz). Next time you can just move the sandbox to he article title.

A cup of tea for you! edit

  For your first article :). Concerning your query: see here (probably more than you would want to know), and I'll link you to our tutorial for good measure, also to the cheatsheet for coding. Cheers. Lectonar (talk) 07:32, 10 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
