:Well, no. For starters [[WP:COI]] is clearly an issue, as is the presumption that your website is a reliable source, per [[WP:RELIABLE]]. It may be a story worth telling, but that's not what an encyclopedic entry is for: it's to assemble content in a neutral fashion from reliable sources. Perhaps you can add content using the New York Times as a source, withut copying directly from published accounts.
