User talk:EvergonArts

February 2020
There have been two problems with this account: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group or a web site, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing. Additionally, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for your contributions to Wikipedia, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

If you intend to make useful contributions other than promoting your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In that reason, you must:
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block. To do so, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the text at the bottom of your talk page, replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason for thinking that the block was an error, and publish the page.

Unfortunately you were given incorrect information regarding article creation. (and the fact that other filmmakers may have gotten away with it does not mean you can too, see other stuff exists.) While not impossible, it is extremely difficult to write an autobiographical article, please read the autobiography policy. Wikipedia much prefers that independent editors taking note of a potential subject in independent reliable sources author articles. In order to successfully write about yourself, you essentially need to forget everything you know about yourself and only write based on the content of independent sources. This is very difficult for most people to do- I haven't seen it done successfully in my years here.

Articles should summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage state about the subject showing how it meets Wikipedia's special definition of notability; in this case, the definition of a notable filmmaker. I don't mean to diminish your clear accomplishments in your field, but notable in the Wikipedia sense isn't necessarily the same as notability in general. Not every filmmaker merits an article here. Looking at your draft, the sources you offer do not provide the significant coverage of you that is required. Most of the sources just cite the existence of your films or otherwise talk very little about you personally. You may find it helpful to read the policies I mention here as well as Your First Article.

Despite what you were told, a Wikipedia article is not necessarily desirable. There are good reasons to not want one. 331dot (talk) 23:22, 16 February 2020 (UTC)

Thank you for your response and guidance. Yes, I would appreciate it if you would remove my real name from the post and edit history. EvergonArts (talk) 02:37, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
