Sidney Lovell

The article about Mr. Sidney Lovell is my first attempt at using Wikipedia. When I use the search function from the main page to see if it has been indexed yet, the pages does not show up. Does this take several days, weeks for the index to catch up, or have I missed a step? Thank you. David.Stuart (talk) 16:04, 10 January 2009 (UTC) the page has been up for about 5 days and it still is not indexed?

Welcome to WikiPedia! It didn't work because you created the page on your own user page. What you need to do is to click on that red link on the top of your userpage, then it will bring you to a page that says "Editing Sidney Lovell" and you can paste your article in there! Let me know if you need any further help. shirulashem (talk) 22:34, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

Biography tip

You should check out the Manual of Style for Biographies. I think it will help. shirulashem (talk) 22:44, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
