Hello. Your recent edit to Shorewood High School (Wisconsin) appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Stealing a ref a from a different entry does not help Meters (talk) 00:29, 6 August 2019 (UTC)

My notable entry
I have been wanting to add my name to the notables. I had a 10 year career in the entertainment industry. I have an IMDB and an IBDB page as well as links to articles and reviews. Please advise. Thank you. BJPS1975 (talk) 00:33, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
 * My advice? Don't. Read the links in the above warning (WP:LISTBIO and WP:N).Read WP:RS. Read WP:WTAF. Read WP:COI. Read WP:AUTOBIO.


 * 1) Don't add entries to lists unless they have articles to show their notability.
 * 2) Don't use non-reliable sources such as IMBD if you do write an article..
 * 3) Don't write an article about yourself. Meters (talk) 00:45, 6 August 2019 (UTC)

Notables
So... If I am a notable graduate of a school, what are my next steps to create an article? BJPS1975 (talk) 00:48, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Did you read my previous post? Don't do it yourself. If you are notable then someone will likely write an article for you. Wikipedia's requirements for notability are often far beyond what a high school thinks is notable. It's possible to request that an article be created, but If you are this https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1637696/ Ben Scheaffer I do not think that you will qualify for an article, so I'm not going give you false hope.

Understood. I will look into having one written. I have other notable credits and references for them. BJPS1975 (talk) 01:08, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
