A Wikipedia user page is for someone who is active in working for the project to give a little information about himself or herself in connection with his or her work for the encyclopaedia: it is not a place to post a personal web page, unrelated to work for Wikipedia.

I cannot believe that you seriously believed that the contents of your sandbox would be considered suitable as an article. You are very welcome to start making constructive contributions to the encyclopaedia if you are willing to do so, but submitting nonsense as "articles for creation" achieves nothing apart from causing the volunteers who review such submissions to waste time which could be more usefully spent on assessing serious submissions. My advice to new editors is that it is best to start by making small improvements to existing articles, rather than creating new articles. That way any mistakes you make will be small ones, and you won't have the discouraging experience of repeatedly seeing hours of work deleted. Gradually, you will get to learn how Wikipedia works, and after a while you will know enough about what is acceptable to be able to write whole new articles without fear that they will be deleted. Over the years I have found that editors who start by making small changes to existing articles and work up from there have a far better chance of having a successful time here than those who jump right into creating new articles from the start.
