Welcome to Wikipedia. Please be aware of Wikipedia's policy that biographical information about living persons must not include unsupported or inaccurate statements. Whenever you add possibly controversial statements about a living person to an article or any other Wikipedia page, you must include proper sources. If you don't know how to cite a source, you may want to read Referencing for beginners for guidelines. Thank you. Osiris (talk) 11:01, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

Your article
Hi, Dylan. You blanked the article you wrote about yourself, and we take that as a request to delete, so I have deleted it. It would have been deleted anyway because, unlike Myspace and Facebook, Wikipedia is a project to build an encyclopedia, and writing about oneself is strongly discouraged, for reasons explained at Autobiography.

The links in the Welcome message above will tell you more about Wikipedia: also, I think you should read Guidance for younger editors, particularly the section headed "Your safety and security".
