Welcome

 * Please also see the article WP:Write the article first. In general, you should not add yourself or anyone else to a list or article about notable people until an article exists on that person that clearly shows your/their notability.  However, see also WP:Autobiography; generally, creating a page about yourself is highly discouraged and such pages are often removed as lacking neutral point of view and/or reflecting conflict of interest.

List of people who have walked across the United States
You did not delete your own entry in error; I had reverted your edits (and now have done so again). Firstly, when you added yourself, you removed the introduction to the list and the rather detailed comment on what kinds of entries are considered appropriate. Secondly, I do not see that you meet those criteria; thus you should not be on that list. You may also want to check out our guideline on conflicts of interest; writing about yourself is usually not a good idea. Huon (talk) 23:26, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
