[edit] NCBN

The article NCBN has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This happened because the article seems to be about a person or group of persons but it does not indicate how or why that person or group is notable. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. You might also want to read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles.

[edit] Welcome back

Regarding your message...

Great news! I see you are having a bit of trouble with your early stubs. Don't get discouraged. Try and put a little more text in up front, look at the style of other articles for forming an introduction, and tag the articles with {{stub}} (or one of its suboridnates). It takes a bit to get used to but it will work. Saw the stub you started on Pedophile Party. Remember seeing them in the news not too long ago. Good luck expanding out the article. If you need help with it just let me know and I'll try to point you along on getting references setup and the text expanded. --StuffOfInterest 21:25, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

As for Pedophile Party, if they have been in a print publication, then you can cite that publication in a "References" section like so:
   ==References==
   Smith, John. Pedophile Party Pushes Controvercial Goals. The Weekly Midtown Newspaper. July 13, 2006
There's a more modern way to do this with a footnote-like facility as well, which you can find at WP:CITE.
If the source is an online source, you can simply cite it inline:
   The '''Pedophile Party''' is a controversial [[political party]] in the
    [[United Kingdom]].[http://some.link.example.com/where/you/saw/this/info.html]
That's all there is to it. -Harmil 16:50, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
