Welcome![edit]

Hello, Carlelliss, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as CopperheadOS, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I read those guidelines before creating the page. If you have specific reasons why you think it does not conform, please leave them on the talk page. I was notified the page was reviewed by another user. Carlelliss (talk) 12:06, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome again. And thanks for writing a brand new article. To elaborate on the above, automated message: It is best to create articles that have links in other articles pointing to them. An article without such links is called an orphan, and is at risk of being deleted. So maybe you could enter CopperheadOS our the page on Comparison of mobile operating systems. Happy editing.

PS. I see that you fixed the orphan issue by adding links from other articles, such as this edit. That's good. A small tip: When you write a new article, then you can first create the wikilink to your planned article (the link will initially be a link in red, which is fine), and then add the article. In that case the orphan issue will never exist. If done the other way around, some automated checking of new articles will be quick to flag your new article as an orphan. All the best.
