From Welcome to MAKE A PAGE
Wikipedia! This is a guide to
some things you should know
before creating your first
encyclopedia article. We will
explain some of the DOs and
DON'Ts of writing an article,
then we'll tell you how to create
your article. Here are some tips
that may help you along the way:

PAGE
1.
You must be a registered user to
create a new article.
Unregistered (anonymous) users
can request new articles at our
Articles for Creation
department.
2.
Try editing existing articles to
get a feel for writing and for
using the mark-up language in use
at
Wikipedia.
3.
Search Wikipedia first to make
sure that an article does not
already exist on the subject,
perhaps under a different title.
If the article already exists,
feel free to make any
constructive edits you feel are
necessary.
4. Gather
references both to use as
source(s) of your information and
also to demonstrate notability of
your article's subject matter.
References to blogs, personal
websites and MySpace don't
count&emdash;we need reliable
sources.
5.
Consider requesting feedback. You
can request feedback on articles
you would like to create in a
number of places, including the
talk page of a related
WikiProject or the Drawing
Board.
6. Consider creating the article
first in your user space As a
registered user, you have your
own user space. You can start
your new article there, on a
subpage; you can get it in shape,
take your time, ask other editors
to help work on it, and only move
it into the "live" Wikipedia once
it is ready to go. To create your
own subpage, see here. When your
new article is ready for "prime
time", you can move it into the
main
area.
Remember
the article you create will be
deleted quickly if it is not
acceptable. Wikipedia has a new
pages patrol division where
people check your new articles
shortly after you create
them.
Articles that do not meet
notability by citing reliable
published sources are likely to
be
deleted.
Do
not create pages about yourself,
your company, your band or your
friends, nor pages that
advertise, are personal essays or
other articles you would not find
in an
encyclopedia.
Be careful about the following:
copying things, controversial
material, extremely short
articles, and local-interest
articles.

Consumer
and manufacturing advocates have
sparked actions against copyright
protections laws and holders, on
the grounds that; (1) - if the
copyright leads to reduce
competition, (2) - the copyright
creates higher prices to the
consumer; and if, (3) - the
copyright advances laws that
criminalizes the consumer and
competition. Experts say that
both Copyright and Trademark
regulations should parallel the
Patent laws in that -- U.S.
antitrust officials should be
given the power to oppose and
bring antitrust actions against
violators.
