User talk:Barbarawaltersmilne

Welcome!
Hello, Barbarawaltersmilne, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as User:Barbarawaltersmilne, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Barbarawaltersmilne


A tag has been placed on User:Barbarawaltersmilne, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
 * It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.
 * It appears to consist of writings, information, discussions, and/or activities not closely related to Wikipedia's goals. Please note that Wikipedia is not a free Web hosting service. (See section U5 of the criteria for speedy deletion.)

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Help me!
Please help me with... I am trying to create a biography page for my wife who is a famous educator, songwriter, vocalist in the early childhood education field since 1981. Lots of published songs, videos, books, etc. I created one, but seems to violate lots of rules and don't know where to start to create it now. Barbarawaltersmilne (talk) 22:13, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
 * I think you have confused creating an article(the preferred term, not "page") with creating an account. I gather you chose your wife's name as your username for this reason; you may want to change your username via Special:GlobalRenameRequest.    You edited your user page, which is not article space, but a place for the named user to tell about themselves as a Wikipedia editor or user.  Instead you used this space- to be frank- to create a very promotional text about your wife. New accounts cannot directly create articles and must use Articles for Creation to create and submit a draft for review by other editors.
 * Wikipedia articles are typically written by independent editors wholly unconnected with the topic, who take note of coverage of a topic in independent reliable sources and choose on their own to write about it. You have what we call a conflict of interest here- as such, using Articles for Creation is a must.  You must, however, set aside everything you know about your wife and only write summarizing what independent reliable sources with significant coverage choose to say about your wife, showing how she meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable person or more narrowly a notable musician. Please read Your First Article and use the new user tutorial to learn more about what we do here. 331dot (talk) 22:43, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
