Indexing user pages
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that you have modified your user page so as to be indexed by external search engines.

I have removed indexing of this page, because some of the content is autobiographical, and user space is "noindexed" by default.

Pages in user space are not a personal homepage. Their purpose is to help editors collaborate in building Wikipedia. If you believe that indexing of this page would serve such a purpose, please leave a note here and we can discuss it. You may continue to edit the page, but please do not restore indexing without discussion. Thank you. Noyster (talk),  23:43, 1 August 2017 (UTC)


 * In reply to your email (I prefer to keep non-confidential communication on talk pages like this one) I do not recommend indexing your present user page. Its purpose is not clear to me&mdash;if it is the draft of a future article then it should go into a user subpage and in due course be submitted for review (see Your first article). Otherwise much of it does not appear to relate to your work or interests on Wikipedia, and you have not yet edited any other page. User pages are not there to publicise your thoughts or personal history to the world; they are meant to assist you and other Wikipedia editors as they go about improving Wikipedia itself. Please take a look at User pages for more about this Noyster (talk),  16:23, 9 August 2017 (UTC)
