Why not by leaving a message on this page? That is what it is for. -- RHaworth 11:49, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

A tag has been placed on Joseph M. Lenard requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject of the article is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} at the top of the article, immediately below the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate), and providing your reasons for contesting on the article's talk page, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

You may want to read the guidelines for specific types of articles: biographies, websites, bands, or companies. -- RHaworth 11:48, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for pointing me in some right directions. Made the mistake of entering info in before enough real substance was there. Plus, I'm already following other Wikipedians advice. I obviously need to go spend some time in the Tutorials, Help sections, and the like. Thanks again! JosephLenard 20:47, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My pleasure

It's a pleasure indeed to welcome an ethusiastic Wikipedian, let me know if there is anything I can do to assist you in the process of settling in. I see that you've navigated a few obstacles already.

I visited your user page, it's looking good! From the evidence I have no doubt that you'll have no problems settling in.

Age category

Hello! If you are receiving this message, that means that your user page is in a specific year category. Per a recent user-category per deletion, all specific year categories are to be deleted. If you wish to continue using year categories, you have two options:

Using an age group category, such as Category:Wikipedians in their 30s
Using a decade category, such as Category:Wikipedians born in the 1970s.

If you wish, you may do both. Hopefully, this change in categorization will be quick and painless. Happy editing! --An automated message from MessedRobot 12:32, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
