== Creating a new article ==

I wrote a new article (it's my first) with the corresponding media files that I uploaded to the server, but I can't figure how to publish it. The upload wizard is not helping at all. Is there a clear simple step by step guide to guide me through this process? Thnaks — Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Mariana Thomas|Mariana Thomas]] ([[User talk:Mariana Thomas|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Mariana Thomas|contribs]]) 06:54, 2 November 2014 (UTC) 
:Your draft article has been moved to [[Draft:Nabila Mikhail Youssef]]; but there is no point uploading photos and the like until the article itself is cleaned up enough to actually be used as an encyclopedia article. --[[User:Orangemike|Orange Mike]] | [[User talk:Orangemike|Talk]] 07:46, 2 November 2014 (UTC)
:{{ping|Mariana Thomas}} I have some recommendations that you can implement into the article. First, you need a clearer opening paragraph. This could be something like '''Nabila Mikhail Youssef''' (October 1935 - October 2013) was an Egyptian .... Secondly, you'll need to find reliable sources (not self-published, see [[WP:NOTABILITY|our notability guidelines]]), to back up your claims. Next, you need to clean up your article by adding internal links and splitting your work up into paragraphs. As Orangemike said, you're going to have to clean your article up before you add a picture. Leave me a message on my talk page if you need further help!

Many thanks. I'll work on it further and will get in touch again.

== How am I supposed to delete pages in my own user space? ==

Nominating a stale private user page (e.g. [[User:YohanN7/Cantor's antinomies]], for which I have no use anymore) for deletion seems like overkill. Is it enough to just blank it and save? I doubt that... [[User:YohanN7|YohanN7]] ([[User talk:YohanN7|talk]]) 09:20, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

:You can blank it and leave it if you want, but if you want it deleted, add {{tlx|db-u1}} to the top of the page and an admin will stop by and delete it. [[:en:User:GB fan|GB]] [[:en:User talk:GB fan|fan]] 09:23, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

Hello,

The Cheryl Cole page has not change the actual file name to Cheryl Fernandez -Versini. She has recently got married again and would previous not like to be called Cheryl Cole because that her ex husband name (Ashley Cole) he cheated on her several time they divorce couple of years ago. So she would like to called Cheryl Fernandez -Versini.

Here some evidence

Please can someone do this to me, I am not high up in wiki team to do this — Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Shaun3559|Shaun3559]] ([[User talk:Shaun3559|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Shaun3559|contribs]]) 10:01, 2 November 2014 (UTC) 
:Hello Shaun3559. The change you want is controversial: it was discussed on [[Talk:Cheryl Cole]], and there was an overwhelming consensus NOT to make that change. The reason was that people still predominantly call her "Cheryl Cole". There are some people on the talk page, however, who think the page should be titled just "Cheryl". If you want to participate in the discussion, go to [[Talk:Cheryl Cole]]. —[[User:TEB728|teb728]] [[User talk:TEB728|t]] [[Special:Contributions/TEB728|c]] 11:00, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

:Christopher Columbus "thought hispanics were chinese"?!? Did that include King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella? [[User:AndyTheGrump|AndyTheGrump]] ([[User talk:AndyTheGrump|talk]]) 21:00, 2 November 2014 (UTC)
:The place for discussion of the article on [[Christopher Columbus]] is its talk page, [[Talk: Christopher Columbus]]. More generally, the place for discussing proposed changes to the content of any article is that article's talk page.

::Of course, the [[Vikings]] came before Columbus and I don't know why they don't get more credit. The Hispanics this person refers to would be the Native Americans, and by that I mean Native North Americans (including those on the islands) and Native South Americans. Many Hispanics have Native American heritage.— [[User:Vchimpanzee|Vchimpanzee]] • [[User talk:Vchimpanzee| talk]] • [[Special:Contribs/Vchimpanzee|contributions]] • 22:51, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
