User talk:AydenLincoln

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

I noticed that one of the first articles you created or edited was Draft:Ayden Lincoln, which appears to be an article about yourself. Creating an autobiography is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians—as this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. Your user page, however, is a great place to write about yourself, making sure to stay within user page guidelines. Just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit it normally.

The 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 it, please propose the changes on its talk page.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

I know it is strongly discouraged however that being said I tried to write from a neutral point of view. How can I get one? I wrote it because I qualify for one. AydenLincoln (talk) 14:53, 25 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi AydenLincoln! I assume your question is about writing an article about yourself. Please read Autobiography - in a nutshell, Avoid writing or editing an article about yourself (or paying someone else to do so), other than to correct unambiguous errors of fact. Furthermore, per WP:YOURSELF, If your life and achievements are verifiable and genuinely notable, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later, but creating an article about yourself is strongly discouraged: we want biographies here, not autobiographies.
 * Basically, this means that if - as you say - you "qualify for one", someone else will see the significant coverage about you in reliable sources, and write an article about you. You may wish to leave a request on this page to suggest that an article about you is written (providing reliable sources), but that is no guarantee that an article will ever be written. Please also read An article about yourself isn't necessarily a good thing about why it may not actually be a good thing to have a Wikipedia article about yourself. If you need any more help, you can, or just leave a message on my talk page.  Seagull123  Φ  16:57, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
