Greetings! I think you had some copy-and-paste issues when creating the Charles S. Venable article. It was a duplicate of the Armistead L. Long article you recently created. Because there is no text about Venable, the article was speedy deleted. Feel free to recreate it with content on Venable, though. —C.Fred (talk) 05:29, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Welcome
[edit]Hi Burkem34,
I saw that you started a series of articles on Civil War soldiers. If you are interested in creating wikipedia articles on military subjects you might be interested in joining this project Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history. They have lots of good guidelines on how to create articles and how to meet the guideline standards for Wikipedia. Don't be discouraged if your first articles need some work, if you are new to this it can be a little confusing to start with. I cleaned up James B. Walton a bit, if you check that out and the Manual of Style links and some other articles it might show you the general format of articles.Awotter (talk) 09:06, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
