User talk:Foram Mehta

Welcome!
Hello, Foram Mehta, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Foram mehta, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type help me on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

Please do not write or add to an article about yourself, as you apparently did at Foram mehta. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to an existing article about yourself, please propose the changes on its talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was my page deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator. There are also other problems. The page seems largely promotional, telling us such things as that you are "highly professional", whereas a Wikipedia article needs to be written from a neutral point of view. None of the content is provided with any sources. References to reliable sources are needed for two reasons, firstly so that the contents can be verified (in a project where anyone can edit, there is nothing to stop people posting totally false information, and people often do so), and secondly to show that the subject of the article is notable enough to justify being the subject of an article. An article about a living person without any references to sources is liable to deletion. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 14:20, 21 July 2015 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Deb. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.
