Help
[edit]First of all, when you ask for a question, please place the "helpme" tag on this page, not the other user's page. As for your question — note that Wikipedia can be edited by anyone, so the instant that you click "Save page", your page is ready to be edited by anyone else. Also, you can delete the article's draft version by placing {{tl|db-author}] on the page. This signals that you wish for the page to be deleted because you're the only author of it, and you wish for it to be deleted.

Help request
[edit]Hi, it looks like maybe you've already figured it out, since I see you've edited the article since leaving the message. Let me know if you need any more help, or use the {{helpme}} thing with a question here. That way, other people are likely to help you, even if I'm not around. Friday (talk) 22:23, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
Thank You
[edit]Thank you both for your responses. This is like learning a new language.--Erikaj001 (talk) 22:27, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
{{helpme}}
When I search for the article under organic or organic baby products even - I am unable to find it in the wikipedia search. Are there extra steps I need to take to make the article searchable? Thank you.
- I have no idea why it isn't showing up for you. It shows up just fine when I search for it. Are you typing in "Organic baby products" exactly? Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells• Otter chirps • HELP!) 03:24, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
I am typing it in exactly and it doesn't come up. Thought it might be in relation to the categories chosen. Perhaps I need a break. --Erikaj001 (talk) 03:31, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
- It won't be to do with the categories. Sometimes pages take about a day before they show up, but it's working with me now. Can you see it yet? Try clearing your browser cache (Ctrl-F5 on Firefox and Internet Explorer for full instructions see here). Otherwise I don't know. This is the search page you're looking at?
- Also, I noticed that you started the article on your userpage. It is often a good idea to develop articles in your userspace before putting them into mainspace, but you might want to create articles on a user subpage, like User:Erikaj001/Sandbox (You will need to create the page). this means you can just have the information you have about yourself on your userpage. - tholly --Turnip-- 13:17, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
organic baby products
[edit]hi, i came across this article and i am not convinced of it's notability. i proposed to merge contents from it into organic food and will soon propose the article for deletion Truetom (talk) 20:04, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
