[edit]

Hello, EDA2024, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you created or edited was Draft:Eric Don-Arthur, which appears to be an article about yourself. Writing about yourself is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians.

As this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. We require individuals to meet Wikipedia's definition of a notable person to accept articles about them. A page you created about yourself may well be deleted from the encyclopedia. If it is deleted and you wish to retrieve its contents, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

If your contributions to an existing article about yourself are undone and you wish to add to or change it, please propose the changes on its talk page.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Thank You very much for your kind attention and valuable advice.
I wouldn't go as far as to suggest that I am a notable person; however being a photographer, and having worked for years in the public sphere as a television presenter, and later having been a candidate in a public election for legislative office - I would like to share the results of my work and thus attained knowledge with the public, and that is why I took the initiative of making a page about myself - in the hope that the widely accepted genre of auto-biographical content, might not frowned upon or even disapproved to the extent of being deleted by the Wikipedia moderators and editors. I thanks you once again and am looking forward to possible further advice from You. 154.161.183.61 (talk) 16:06, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
