Don't worry too much about being perfect. Very few of us are! Just in case you are not perfect, click here to see how you can avoid making common mistakes.
If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Wikipedia Boot Camp, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.
Wikipedians try to follow a strict policy of never biting new users. If you are unsure of how to do something, you are welcome to ask a more experienced user such as an administrator. One last bit of advice: please sign any dicussion comment with four tildes (~~~~). The software will automatically convert this into your signature which can be altered in the "Preferences" tab at the top of the screen. I hope I have not overwhelmed you with information. If you need any help just let me know. Once again welcome to Wikipedia, and don't forget to tell us about yourself and be BOLD! Kukini 05:39, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia is not a soapbox
Hi, Wikipedia is not the appropriate place to host a blog. You have posted a number of articles that all claim to be blogs:
- Mar bawai
- Mar Bawai Soro
- Ashur Soro
If you would like to write an article about these people (keeping in mind Wikipedia's guildlines on notable biographies) please do so, but please stop treating Wikipedia as your webhost. --Chris (talk) 06:10, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
- Also please note that you should not be copying-and-pasting the same content into three articles, even if the content is notable. Redirects exist for a reason. --Chris (talk) 06:14, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Peter Esho
The article Peter Esho has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This happened because the article seems to be about a person or group of persons but it does not indicate how or why that person or group is notable. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. You might also want to read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles.
