Welcome!
Hello, Ottsby, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Random Hacks of Kindness, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.
There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:
- Starting an article
- Your first article
- Biographies of living persons
- How to write a great article
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Help pages
- Tutorial
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Questions or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 17:17, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
The article Random Hacks of Kindness has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- There's no evidence provided of "Microsoft, Google, Yahoo!, NASA and World Bank" having anything to do with it - just one link to what looks like a hacker site
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 17:17, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
Please do not add hoaxes to Wikipedia. Hoaxes are caught and marked for deletion shortly after they are created. If you are interested in how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method would be to try to find inaccurate statements that are already in Wikipedia – and then to correct them if possible. Please do not disrupt Wikipedia in an attempt to test our ability to detect and remove such material. Feel free to take a look at the five pillars of Wikipedia to learn more about this project and how you can make a positive impact. Thank you. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 18:14, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
Dear PMDrive1061: this is not a hoax. Please follow the link and actually do your editor homework before deleting. Just read more at www.rhok.org. We'll add more to this entry soon.
Unblocked, PMDrive1061 agrees, this is not a hoax. Dougweller (talk) 06:21, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
