#'''Create the article first in Draft or User space''' unless you are very sure that you can create an acceptable article on your first attempt. Since 2013, [[Wikipedia:Drafts|Draft]] space has been a safe place to create articles that you want to work up towards being accepted into the encyclopedia. 'Live' articles are required to meet a number of Wikipedia rules from the start, or they risk being deleted; but in Draft space, unless you do something seriously bad (like a copyright violation, or a personal attack on somebody) nobody is likely to touch your draft unless you ask them to. Before Draft space was created, it was customary to create drafts in [[Wikipedia:User pages|user space]], and this is still available as an alternative to Draft space: if you are a registered user, you can start the new article in your User space, on a [[Wikipedia:Subpages|subpage]]. Either way you can get it in shape, take your time, ask other editors to help work on it, and only consider moving it into the [[Wikipedia:What is an article?#Namespace|"live" part of Wikipedia]] once it is ready to go. One way of making this happen is to request a review: this may take a week or two, depending on the backlog; but when a reviewer accepts it, they will move the draft into the live space, and also sort out any issues there may be with similarly named articles that already exist. If they don't accept it, they will give you advice on how to get it up to standard. The [[Wikipedia:Article wizard|Article Wizard]] will help you create your article in Draft space, and will put some useful templates into your draft, including the button to pick when you are ready to submit it for review.

 

Wikipedia already has {{NUMBEROFARTICLES}} articles. Before creating an article, try to make sure there is not already an article on the same topic, perhaps under a slightly different name. [[Help:Searching|Search]] for the article, and review Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Article titles|article titling policy]] before creating your first article. If an article on your topic already exists, but you think people might look for it under some different name or spelling, learn how to [[Wikipedia:Redirect|create ''redirects'' to alternative titles]]; adding needed redirects is a good way to help Wikipedia. Also, remember to check the article's [[Special:Log/delete|deletion log]] in order to avoid creating an article that has already been deleted. (In some cases, the topic may be suitable even if deleted in the past; the past deletion may have been because it was a copyright violation, did not explain the importance of the topic, or on other grounds addressed to the writing rather that the topic's suitability.)
