User talk:Lisa Lee Dark

You should wait for others to write an article about subjects in which you are personally involved, as you did at Lisa Lee Dark. This applies to articles about you, your achievements, your band, your business, your publications, your website, your relatives, and any other possible conflict of interest.

Creating an article about yourself is strongly discouraged. If you create such an article, it might be listed on articles for deletion. Deletion is not certain, but many feel strongly that you should not start articles about yourself. This is because independent creation encourages independent validation of both significance and verifiability. All edits to articles must conform to No original research, Neutral point of view, and Verifiability.

If you are not "notable" under Wikipedia guidelines, creating an article about yourself may violate the policy that Wikipedia is not a personal webspace provider and would thus qualify for speedy deletion. If your achievements, etc., are verifiable and genuinely notable, and thus suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later. (See Wikipedians with articles.) Thank you. CultureDrone (talk) 11:01, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

I set up the article
I am the person who set up the original wikipedia page on Lisa Lee Dark. All I did wrong (by mistake) was sign in under the name of Lisa Lee Dark, as I thought that you had to write the name of the person that you were writing about.The main reason why I decided to set up a wikipedia about Lisa Lee Dark was because I have a child that was born with the same condition and I found it very difficult to find any information on the subject of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), I have read sevearal publications with Lisa Lee Dark in them and I have bought a couple of her albums, so I spent a little while researching her in more full detail as I find her a extremely important subject, and extremely interesting. I for one don't want my daughter to grew up feeling that there is something wrong with her, Lisa Lee Dark is some one that she can look up to, to realise that she isn't a freak or someone with special needs, she is someone (a person who can achieve anything that she wants to, nothing can stand in her way, just look at Lisa Lee Dark.

I would like to add that I have never met Lisa Lee Dark in my life, although I would like to meet her, to let her know that her courage, inspeaking openly and publicly about her life and condition has helped my whole family come to terms with a rare and very complicated medical condition, and if her story can help at least one family, then it could have the ability to help thousands of people.
