Quidam Software

edit

Hello Stifle,

I understand why you erased the article about Quidam Software. It was too short, without references etc. But actually it is my first article on wikipedia and I don't know how to ask that the article is "under construction". Can you let me know please?

Thanks for your help.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Zeptune (talkcontribs) 14:41, 28 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Quidam software was deleted under the criteria for speedy deletion, specifically number 1 under Articles, as it was a short article with little or no context.
Articles on Wikipedia should generally be more than a single sentence long and need to include citations from reliable sources to comply with the verifiability policy.
You shouldn't put an article up before you've got these added, but if you want to work on an article for a while, you can create a user subpage and work on the article there, before moving it to the desired article title when it's ready.
I hope that this experience hasn't put you off and that you enjoy being a Wikipedian. If you require further help using Wikipedia, please place a message on Wikipedia:Help desk or just put {{helpme}} and a message on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to help.
