Bberkey21, you are invited to the Teahouse!
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.

Brett, it seems that like many people (including myself) you have come to Wikpedia editing with some mistaken ideas about the nature of Wikipedia. Wikipedia does not aim to have articles on just any subject, but only on those which satisfy certain "notability guidelines". The two guidelines which are most relevant in your case are the general notability guideline and the guideline on notability of people. You may find it helpful to look at those. When I reviewed your latest draft submission I searched on the internet for information about you, as well as looking at the references in the draft. What I found did not come anywhere near the sort of coverage needed for the notability guidelines, and I had to conclude that you do not satisfy those guidelines. That being so, no matter how much work you may put into the draft it is never likely to be accepted as an article. I advise you to accept that, as otherwise you are likely to spend a lot of your time and effort on a task which is doomed to failure. I remind you of what I said above: you are very welcome indeed to start making contributions to the encyclopaedia on other subjects, but if your purpose is to write a web page about yourself, then you would be much better off putting work into doing so somewhere else, as Wikipedia is not the right place to do it.
