In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

Contested deletion
This page should not be speedily deleted because... (your reason here) --Grduvert (talk) 16:50, 2 August 2020 (UTC)

My name is quoted on several wikipedia articles, but with no links to a page. It seems weird there is no explanation about me. The page I proposed is very short (8 lines) and very factual, with each fact sustained by an independent source (except my studies). I left away most of my work, so it can hardly be considered as promotional.

The feature film I directed, "Virtual Revolution" (aka "2047 Virtual Revolution") has won more than 50 awards, and is available worldwide (in the US, for instance, it is on DVD, Bluray, all selling platofrms such as iTunes, Amazon...etc, and it is part of the Amazon Prime catalogue, and it was part of Hulu for a while). On the wikipedia page of the film, several actors have their own page but the director doesn't.

I did as short and factual as possible to make sure it couldn't be considered as promotion but just info. If anything seems out of line, please let me know. On the contrary, if you feel there should be more info, I can provide more.

Best.


 * The issue is the content is on your user page which is largely to write about your interests and activities as they relate to contributing to Wikipedia. If you believe you meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines for filmmakers, you should submit an article.  Please see Your first article for guidance.  Please do note, Wikipedia strongly discourages editors writing about themselves but it is allowed within certain limitations.  See WP:AUTOBIO for additional information.  I will leave a welcom message with some additional policies/guides about editing. S0091 (talk) 17:02, 2 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Ooops, I gave you the wrong notability guideline. See WP:NFILMMAKER. I do think you have a decent shot at your article being  accepted.  There appears to be at least one good source about you in the Virtual Revolution article.  For now, I am going to remove my delete request to give you time to copy the content to draft space: DRAFT:Guy-Roger Duvert.  Once you have copied it over, you can delete it from your user page.

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

I noticed that one of the first articles you created or edited 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!

Draft talk:Guy-Roger Duvert
Hi Guy-Roger Duvert, I removed the article content from your User page since it is now at the Draft page. For the Draft I added the Draft template so when you are ready, you can submit it for review. A couple of notes, IMBD and Amazon are not considered reliable sources so will not be used to establish notability. I did see what appears to be a decent source in the Virtual Revolution article and noted it at Draft talk:Guy-Roger Duvert so you may consider using it in article about you. You probably need at least one additional source that discusses you at length for the article to be accepted. If you have questions or need help, you can reach out the Teahouse. You may also find WikiProject Film helpful. S0091 (talk) 16:19, 8 August 2020 (UTC)



Thanks a lot. I edited the text. I didn't find the additional source you are evoking, though. I didn't touch the text, but I added several new sources. Please let me know if it feels good to you now.

Thanks,

Guy-Roger Duvert
 * Since you have submitted it for review, it is best to let go through the process. I think you have done a good job of being concise.  Generally when people write an article about themselves it is written like a resume combined with a promotional fluff piece.  I added the WikiProject Film and WikiProject France banners to the talk page as that may draw interest from members of those projects. S0091 (talk) 16:01, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
