Nice comment. - Mtmelendez (Talk) 20:26, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
I know how it feels. But there's so many topics to choose from, yet so little when considering that many users on this site are very picky about content. Just write articles that interest you. If they already exist, edit and improve them. You could also write about a sub-topic of one of your interests. Or, you can start here: Wikipedia:Most wanted articles or Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles. Hope that helps. - Mtmelendez (Talk) 20:45, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
- Sure. Just do me one favor: don't get discouraged. Writing an article in Wikipedia can sometimes be like swimming against the current in high tide. You might get users who disagree with you and you might get your article posted at WP:AFD and even deleted. We've all been there. Many users have left Wikipedia because of this, but others (like me) have remained. You just have to keep going.
- If you have the time, read through these pages, they'll help alot:
- 1. Wikipedia:About
- 2. Wikipedia:Why Wikipedia is so great
- 3. Wikipedia:Avoiding common mistakes (to avoid getting your work deleted)
- 4. Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not (why many articles get deleted)
- Happy editing! - Mtmelendez (Talk) 21:05, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
