User talk:GerrardVEVO

Welcome!
Hello, GerrardVEVO, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you created or edited was User:GerrardVEVO/sandbox, which appears to be an article about yourself. Creating an autobiography is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians—as this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. Your user page, however, is a great place to write about yourself, making sure to stay within user page guidelines. Just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit it normally.

The page you created about yourself may well be deleted from the encyclopedia. If it is deleted and you wish to retrieve its contents, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page. If your contributions to an existing article about yourself are undone and you wish to add to it, please propose the changes on its talk page.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

Speedy deletion nomination of Gerrard (Artist)


A tag has been placed on Gerrard (Artist) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. – Thjarkur (talk) 19:41, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Hello Gerard, Wikipedia isn't the right place for writing about yourself, when you do become notable someone who is not you will eventually write about you. For the notability guidelines of singers, see WP:GNG and WP:NSINGER. – Thjarkur (talk) 19:51, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
 * he tried to avoid A7 by moving the article to the user space under User:Gerrard (Artist), so I re-tagged because now it qualifies under WP:U2. I've also reported this editor as a promo only account. Best, GPL93 (talk) 20:11, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
