The Hao Staff

A tag has been placed on The Hao Staff, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself.

If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. You may also want to move the page to EverythingWiki. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this. McWomble (talk) 14:40, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Request for help brought over from deleted article

I want to write about the Hao Staff, but am not sure how to go about writing the "perfect article".

Here is a list of references. I am hoping that somebody may give it a start, especially with the Wiki layout, which will take time for me to learn.

Well first, you should know that creating articles about oneself or subjects one has a strong connection with is discouraged as it creates a potential for conflict of interest. See WP:COI. You shoud read the guidelines and policies linked in the welcome. You should pay particular attention to the notability guidelines-- Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and most potential subjects do not meet notability guidelines.
