Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes
(~~~~)
at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put
{{My sandbox}}
on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.Sincerely, Jax 0677 (talk) 21:52, 8 July 2014 (UTC) (Leave me a message)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of "Young In America", and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Young In America. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.
It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. CorenSearchBot (talk) 01:32, 9 July 2014 (UTC)

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, "Young In America". First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Young In America. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Young In America – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.
If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. 220 of Borg 01:44, 9 July 2014 (UTC)

[edit]Edit summaries
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/3/35/Information_icon.svg/20px-Information_icon.svg.png)
Hi there. When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.
Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field. If you are adding a section, please do not just keep the previous section's header in the Edit summary field – please fill in your new section's name instead. Thank you. --220 of Borg 01:51, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
First article
[edit]Hi Ottc3
Please see My first article. Regards, --220 of Borg 01:51, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
Linking
[edit]In order to link to a page you must have only the pages name inside the [[]] brackets ie.
- [[Young In America]] which gives Young In America not
- [["Young In America"]] which results in "Young In America". This is referred to as a redlink. See wp:linking for more information. :-) --220 of Borg 02:11, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
- OHHHH!! Thanks :)
- You're welcome. But, don't forget to sign your message. Just add ~~~~ at the end, the software will replace it with your signature. See Signing --220 of Borg 03:25, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
- OHHHH!! Thanks :)
Ohh ok thanks again! Is there any chance you could help me in adding a picture to my info box? --Ottc3 (talk) 03:28, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
- Something like:
- | image=image name.jpg
- should work, only inside an infobox template. Depending on the image format the xxx.jpg may be xxx.png, xxx.svg or similar. Click on
{{image}}
for more info. 220 of Borg 03:44, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Broken Ones
[edit]Hello Ottc3,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Broken Ones for deletion, because it seems to be inappropriate for a variety of reasons.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Sulaimandaud (talk) 19:07, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
The whole article consist of just infobox. Please Add some information in the main area. plus no references.
I am doing that now. I was doing that just wanted to save the info box. Also I have references need to put them in
