User talk:Katherine Beck

Welcome!
Hello, Katherine Beck, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

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.

Hello, I'm ProClasher97. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.  ProClasher 9 7  ~  Have A Question?  21:54, 12 January 2023 (UTC)


 * I am attempting to create a wikipedia entry that describes my career and work in the fine arts.
 * I am following the language used in other fine artists who are my peers.
 * I expect this page to be used as reference only, not as a promotional tool.
 * I do understand that the external links crossed a boundary, though it would be helpful informationally to have a link to my personal website, as well as to professionals who manage my fine art work. I notice that my peers have external links like this on their wikipedia pages.
 * Am I deleted forever with no chance of appropriately editing and framing an appropriate page? Katherine Beck (talk) 13:58, 13 January 2023 (UTC)

You could always submit an unblock request using the unblock request template in the notice below this message, but before you do that, I strongly recommend you read policies such as this one, this one, this one, and the conflict of interest policy. Also, I should probably make you aware that writing about yourself is extremely discouraged, as this establishes a conflict of interest (the policy of which is the last one that I linked).

 * Got it - thank you. I'm well intentioned (i.e. not a blow hard trying to draw attention to myself ) only looking for reference of my work. And, I did think everyone did "their own" here. I guess because of the capacity for editing on Wikipedia.
 * I'll read everything and reach out again.   Katherine Beck (talk) 20:55, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
