One account
If you are the same person as, please choose one account and use only that one, to avoid suspicion of "sockpuppetry". JohnCD (talk) 15:33, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

Notability for footballers
See WP:NFOOTBALL for what a footballer needs to have achieved before having a Wikipedia article. Playing at a junior, youth or reserve level does not count. JohnCD (talk) 15:33, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not for writing about yourself
Wikipediat is not a place like Myspace or Facebook for people to write about themselves. It is a different sort of site, a project to build an encyclopedia, so it is selective about subjects for articles, and writing about oneself is strongly discouraged, for reasons explained at Wikipedia is not about YOU and Autobiography (see also pt:Wikipédia:Autobiografia). The links in the Welcome message at the top of this page will tell you more about Wikipedia. JohnCD (talk) 15:33, 7 March 2013 (UTC)
