Greetings AdrienneHester, I see you're up for adoption, and I'm in the market. If ever you need advice or answers, just ask me by leaving a message on my talk page -- any question, any time. I'd like to help however I can. As I see you haven't been formally welcomed, I'll put a standard message below. It's pretty helpful for starting information. Happy editing - Draeco (talk) 20:46, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

Start the page in your userspace first (1), get it real spiffy (2), then ask an admin to move it to the main namespace (3).

In more detail, for (1) click this link: User:AdrienneHester/Shulman and then enter your text into the edit window that appears. Check your work with the "preview" button at the bottom. Save periodically. Click "edit" at the top of the page to add more. Look at other articles to see how to format things. As for (2), you will want to write a nice article with plenty of citations if possible, all according to the manual of style and other links in the big welcome template I gave you above. When you think it's satisfactory, (3) contact an administrator to have it moved to the main namespace. If it's not good enough, they'll tell you but you won't have your content deleted.

Don't be afraid, be bold and jump right in. Drop me a line when you begin (or any other time you want advice) and I'll check it out and help where I can. - Draeco (talk) 02:58, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
