Template:First article
Welcome!
Hello, Jimbo, and welcome to Justapedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created may not conform to some of Justapedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.
Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Justapedists can help you through the processes.
