Please do not write or add to an article about yourself. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to an existing article about yourself, please propose the changes on its talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was my page deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator. Thank you. —Largo Plazo (talk) 12:29, 4 June 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Cara D'Adamo


A tag has been placed on Cara D'Adamo requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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 "Click here to 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 removed 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 deleting administrator. —Largo Plazo (talk) 12:36, 4 June 2015 (UTC)

Your identity
At Talk:Cara D'Adamo, you just wrote "This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because,she is an actress that is on the brink of her career. I was writing a mini bio for her. For Cara's credentials, you can check her IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm4760779/?ref_=fn_al_nm_1 and website: www.CaraDAdamo.com". There are several problems with this:


 * 1) A few minutes earlier, you wrote in an edit summary that you are Cara D'Adamo. Now you're saying you wrote the article for her? Which is it?
 * 2) If you are Cara D'Adamo, then I've already posted, above, information that you should read about writing about yourself.
 * 3) If you are not Cara D'Adamo but are writing for her, you have a conflict of interest, which is also a problem.
 * 4) If you are not Cara D'Adamo, you have another problem, which is that you are impersonating someone else when you use her name here as your user name. That's a violation of Wikipedia policy.
 * 5) Regardless of who you are, Wikipedia can't be used for promotional purposes.
 * 6) All article topics have to meet Wikipedia's criteria for notability. I can't find any evidence that Cara D'Adamo meets these. Indeed, being "on the brink of her career" implies that she isn't currently a noted person. Wikipedia isn't for attracting attention to people who aren't already known, it's for providing reference material about people who already are.
 * 7) Inclusion in IMDb is routine for people in the film and television industry, and the bios aren't verified. Like the person's own website, it isn't considered a reliable source for purposes of determining someone's notability.

I know this is a lot to take in, but Wikipedia is pretty strict about its mission and about what article topics are appropriate. Let me know if you have any questions about this. —Largo Plazo (talk) 12:57, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
