== Your use of [[Template:Inuse]] ==
 
Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that you've been creating a lot of new articles. Most of them begin with [[Template:Inuse]], and a few have had the tag on them for days. That template is usually on articles for a few hours at the longest, when editors are making repeated edits to a page and edit conflicts may occur when others try to edit. It is not for marking articles "incomplete" or trying to prevent other editors from editing them. When you leave <nowiki>{{inuse}}</nowiki> tags on articles for days on end and make no edits, you might give others the impression that you're claiming that you "[[Wikipedia:Ownership of articles|own]]" the articles, which is not how Wikipedia works.
 
Also, you may want to take a look at [[Wikipedia:How to edit a page]], which will show you how to create links and formatted text so your articles are not just chunks of text. Thanks, and happy editing. <font color=green>[[User:Szyslak|<font color=green>{{IPA|s&#618;zl&#230;k}}</font>]] [ [[User talk:Szyslak|+t]], [[Special:Contributions/Szyslak|+c]] ]</font> 09:35, Jun 20, 2005 (UTC)
