Information and advice regarding some of Wikipedia's policies and guidelines

 * I have been looking at the page User:Gwen022/sandbox, which you have created. It is clear that you have a high opinion of Annette Collazo. However, Wikipedia policy is that content must be written from a neutral point of view. The page you have created is certainly nowhere near suitable to become an article, and even as a draft in user space, it qualifies for immediate deletion as promotional. I am letting you know about that situation, to give you a chance to edit it remove its promotional nature.
 * If you are personally connected to Annette Collazo or her campaign, then you should read Wikipedia's guideline on conflict of interest. As you will see, that guideline indicates that you should not be creating an article about her. It also indicates things you need to do if you are to do any editing relating to here, such as making a declaration of your connection to her, and requesting edits to be made by neutral editors.
 * My advice to new editors is that it is best to start by making small improvements to existing articles, rather than creating new articles. That way any mistakes you make will be small ones, and you won't have the discouraging experience of repeatedly seeing hours of work deleted. Gradually, you will get to learn how Wikipedia works, and after a while you will know enough about what is acceptable to be able to write whole new articles without fear that they will be deleted. Over the years I have found that editors who start by making small changes to existing articles and work up from there have a far better chance of having a successful time here than those who jump right into creating new articles from the start. No doubt that advice will not appeal to you if you have no interest in dong any editing other than promoting Annette Collazo and her campaign, but Wikipedia is not the right place to do that anyway.
