Hello Everyone! I'm new to Wikipedia and hope to help! I'm enjoying it so far, so...
I'll be seeing all of you around! :)
Umm... so yay... My First question is can you copy and paste a PictureURL/picture to a Wikipedia Page?
Oh! Thank you for the infomation!I will definetly use it in the future!
I'm a big newbie in Wikipedia so I'm going to need just a bit of time to absorb all of this in but I will definetly need to learn these things soon...
Not to sound ignorant, but how do you upload or paste a photo of something into a Wikipedia article? Cause when I try to paste a picture's URL it always comes out as a link and not as an actual picture with a caption...
Welcome!

The article Digimon world:re:digitize has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
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. In particular, the
speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and
articles for deletion allows discussion to reach
consensus for deletion.

Hiya. I see that you're trying to add various pages to Wikipedia and I'm here to give you some help as to understanding why they're being deleted. It looks like that while you're new to Wikipedia, I'm guessing that you've had some experience editing for fan pages of various types (wikis or just plain html pages). While the general idea is similar, especially for wikia type entries, there's a big enough difference as to things you have to post along with the info.
Hopefully this will help out some. I know it must seem frustrating, but there's a lot of rules to understand and follow here. I know that as a newbie I was pretty confused by many of the rules at first, so hopefully this will help make things a little less confusing.

I now understand why my articles should be deleted...I guess they shouldn't be up because I don't have any reliable sources or I need much more information to continue the aritcle(s)..Sorry for causing a bit of trouble and next time, before I will make another new article/next edit I will make sure I will have reliable sources, a lot of information for the aritcle/edit, and just make sure it's good and not getting revised and getting people to think of deleting it..On like 1 edit, I was just joking around and having some silly fun(which btw, makes me a complete hipocite) but I just wanted to see my edit and laugh..I have learned and must now take Wikipedia and it's articles and edits very Seriously or not do it at all.Please forgive me and you can delete the aritcles without an arguement with me! And I do mean ALL of them. Thank you for your time everyone!
Wow... Another article I failed at..! I need to start thinking!!!Argh!! Sorry fr the trouble. I'm not making another article(I'll talk about edits later) until I'm absolutely sure it's going to be good.
If I fail one more time, I'm either never making another article again or I'm just a plain idiot..!!
Sorry for the trouble and I need to be much less of a hypocrite!
Sorry...!!!!
Frankly, for the Platform Racing 3 article, I was just a plain idiot and not thinking.. I'm so sorry..
Please forgive me for what I do sometimes...
Sorry, didn't mean to be such dang hypocrite! I mean technically, you could go to the actual beta to see if it's true, but I'm such an idiot sometimes..Sorry..Ugh, just take it down.. Next time, I will definitively get reliable sources(why did I even make the article in the first place, should have let someone else start it).... I mean I thought I knew the stuff but I forgot about the reliable sources part; like links to websites that have that information.. Ugh..Just, just take it down. My fault... I need to stick to just edits for a while!
Sorry for the problem. Time to lay off making articles and focus on small-a bit more significant edits.
I shouldn't have created the article while it's still in beta.. Sorry. By the way Sparthorse, you catch on FAST with poorly made articles!
Once again, please forgive me...
If you need help editing, check out the tutorial. Keep trying! Look to your local library for sources or try Google searching.

For uploading pictures and other media, it's easiest to go to Wikimedia Commons (you can use your Wikipedia credentials if you're not logged in already) and visit the Upload Wizard. Wikimedia Commons can only accept files which anyone can use for any purpose. That means most content you find on the web is not acceptable. But for example, most photos that you've taken yourself are OK to upload.
Here's a screenshot of the Upload Wizard:
You start by selecting the files you want to upload, then you go step by step through the process. In the final step, you'll get some wiki markup that you can copy into a Wikipedia article. Let me know if I can help. :-)
Hi. When you recently edited Duke Nukem (1991 video game), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page 2D ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
