Welcome!
Hello, Krider07, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on discussion pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{help me}}
before the question. Again, welcome! JohnCD (talk) 21:10, 14 November 2011 (UTC)
Copyright
I'm sorry, but I have had to delete your sandbox page, because it was a copyright violation, copied from "Housing policy in the United States" by Alex F. Schwartz. For legal reasons Wikipedia cannot accept copyright material, not even in user pages, not even temporarily. This is a very serious issue for us, and people who continue to post copyright violations after warning may be blocked from editing.
Please read Wikipedia:Copy-paste and, if this issue has not been explained to you, please ask your instructor to read it too, and to explain it to the rest of the class. If you want to make an article by reworking copyright material, you must do that off-line; and be aware that mere re-wording may not be enough to avoid a copyright violation - see WP:Close paraphrasing.
I have also deleted Talk:Housing trust fund under WP:CSD#G8 - we don't have isolated talk pages announcing an intention to make an article. If you want to make a draft in your user space, a good way to start is at Help:Userspace draft which provides a form to start one, and some helpful links.

Reference Question
Kelly-Do not copy and paste the information. You can use the data to build your own table. The cite it as if you were writing a sentence and adding the citation for that. Does that make sense?Jktanaka (talk) 01:07, 4 December 2011 (UTC)
