- Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with what Wikipedia is and is not. Wikipedia is not just another news, forum, blog, or social networking site – it is a place for serious, collaborative, scholarly assembly of knowledge into a high-quality encyclopedia. Many come here with other expectations and have a difficult time as a result.
- Introduction and Getting started
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- How to create your first article
- Simplified Manual of Style

Bios
[edit]Hi. With regard to your question regarding your and your sister's bio pages, though I am sorry for your loss, I regret that this is probably not the right forum for your bios. See the message above regarding Wikipedia's purpose. Per WP:COISELF, you are not the right person to create those articles. If you believe the subjects are notable, follow the WP:AFC process mentioned there, but you will need to disclose your COI and you can expect the review of the drafts to be especially rigorous. Thanks. —[AlanM1(talk)]— 22:53, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
