Speedy deletion of "Harry Bawa"
A page you created, Harry Bawa, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how they are important or significant, and thus why they should be included in an encyclopedia. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and the guidelines for biographies in particular.

You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Thank you. Bentogoa (talk) 07:07, 20 December 2014 (UTC)

December 2014
Please do not write or add to an article about yourself. 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. Thank you.

Ways to improve Harry Bawa
Hi, I'm Lstanley1979. Harrythetech, thanks for creating Harry Bawa!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Hello - Wikipedia is not a place to promote yourself. You need to be able to point to reliable sources about yourself to have an article here - which means third-party media rather than Facebook and Youtube.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. LouiseS1979 (talk) 07:36, 22 December 2014 (UTC)


 * Well, I'm afraid I've deleted it. Harry, I can see in the page history that your bio article was first deleted for lack of credible indication of the importance or significance of the subject (=lack of independent third-party sources) on December 20. Then you recreated it a couple of days later, and it was still only sourced to yourself: your own website, your own facebook page, your own youtube channel, and your own song video. It doesn't help to add more sources, if all of them are basically you. You need reliable third-party sources. I've deleted the article again. Please read the policy Reliable sources to see what kind of sources are required for biography articles. If you recreate the article yet again without providing at least one such source it will be deleted again and "protected" against recreation, which would mean it can't be recreated again except by administrators. I'm afraid this often happens when people create articles about themselves; it's not meant as a reflexion on you, but we have strict rules about the sourcing of biographical articles. You can see the log of deletions, and the reasons for them, in the pink box on this page. Bishonen &#124; talk 12:22, 23 December 2014 (UTC).
