Contested deletion
This page should not be speedily deleted because I want to create history and we all deserve to have our own Wikipedia page.
 * That's not how this works. This is an encyclopedia, and not social media.  As an encyclopedia, Wikipedia has articles about subjects shown with significant coverage in independent reliable sources to meet Wikipedia's special definition of notability(for people, that is written at WP:BIO).  Wikipedia is not interested in what a subject wants to say about itself.  No one "deserves" a "Wikipedia page"(Wikipedia has articles, not "pages"); it all depends on what independent sources say about a subject.  If you just want to tell the world about yourself, you should confine your efforts to social media.  In order for you to be successful in writing about yourself here, you would need to forget everything you know about yourself and only write based on what independent sources state about you.  Though technically possible, most people cannot do that.  I have yet to see it happen in the many years I've participated here.
 * Also understand that a Wikipedia article is not necessarily desirable; anything, good or bad, can go into an article about you as long as it appears in an independent reliable source. You cannot exclusively control what appears in an article about you, nor lock it to prevent others from editing it or to keep it on the text you might prefer. 331dot (talk) 16:37, 28 July 2019 (UTC)
