User talk:AcousticTom

June 2017
Wikipedia is not a web host for holding personal web pages unrelated to work on building the encyclopaedia. You are, of course, welcome to make contributions to the encyclopaedia, in line with Wikipedia policies and guidelines, but if your purpose is to write a personal web page, then you would be better advised to use one of the many web sites which do provide that sort of service, such as a social network site or a web hosting service. Also, an article talk page is for messages and discussions relating to editing the corresponding article. It is not a place for posting other things, such as article-like content, and there should never be an article talk page if there is no corresponding article, so that for example the page Talk:Acoustic Tom should not exist if Acoustic Tom doesn't. I considered moving the page to Acoustic Tom, on the assumption that it was intended to be an article and given the wrong title by mistake, rather than deleting it, but my searches suggest that doing so would be pointless, as I can find no evidence that the subject satisfies Wikipedia's notability guidelines, and if it doesn't then it would be deleted pretty soon anyway. Also, Wikipedia's guidelines on conflict of interest indicate that you should not be creating an article about yourself.
