Joyce Cardenas
Dear Joyce2826, welcome to Wikipedia! I noticed that you created the page Joyce Cardenas, and I'd like to discuss a few of Wikipedia's core policies with you. First, Wikipedia's notability policy, especially notability for authors/books. Please review the requirements for articles on Biographies of living persons. Second, and my main concern, is the conflict of interest policy. You signed the article (which is not one of the manual of style guidelines) which leads me to believe you are the subject of the article. If you are truly notable, you need to wait for someone else to create the article, and cite the proper references to verify your notability, as you cannot be a non-biased author of your own article. Please review what Wikipedia is not. Your article has been listed for speedy deletion, but please don't take offense: It doesn't mean you're not important, it just means the article doesn't pass the encyclopedia's requirements for inclusion. Hopefully you'll find other areas to contribute to. And please see the help page if you need further assistance. Cheers! Ariel ♥ Gold 08:19, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
