Please do not write 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). 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.

 * The page Jason McNiff has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the contents of the article were largely copied from another website, apparently infringing copyright. If you are the owner of the copyright it is possible to license the content for free use, as explained at Donating copyrighted materials. However, I think it only fair to let you know that in my experience doing so is usually a waste of time, as almost invariably the material is simply deleted again for other reasons, most commonly because it is too promotional in character for use in an encyclopaedia article, as indeed appeared to be so in this case. Wikipedia is not a free advertising service. JamesBWatson (talk) 11:19, 17 February 2012 (UTC)
