Articles for Creation - Redirects

[edit]

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently sumbitted fifteen AfC/R requests. A few things I'd like to mention.

  • While submitting AfC/R requests is not content writing. I feel, based off of the requests and your username, that you might want to read our policy on conflicts of interest.
  • Redirects are only created for common search terms. Listing every possible spelling of a name is not constuctive and more than likely, the submissions have will be declined.
  • In Wikipedia, the first letter of any article title is automatically capitalized, so there is no difference between an article "Fish" and an article "fish" (both go to the same place.)

Thank you, Sven Manguard Wha? 22:06, 1 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
