Question from Jorgecita1999 (08:33, 10 January 2024)
How do I get my self on Wikipedia --Jorgecita1999 (talk) 08:33, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Jorgecita1999, it's not a good idea to write about yourself. See Autobiography. If you become notable according to Wikipedia's criteria, someone will write about you eventually. — ezlev (user/tlk/ctrbs) 20:07, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
