 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Tutorial
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
 * Manual of Style
 * I have deleted your "Editor review" page, because Editor Review is intended for review of the whole career of an editor who has been here some time. The right place to ask for comments on your draft article is WP:Requests for feedback - post a message there, with a link to the draft. There is good advice at Your first article.

 * A first comment on it is that you need independent references - the ones you give seem to be all to the subject's own books and company. Subjects for Wikipedia articles must demonstrate notability which is not a matter of opinion but needs to be established by showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." Significant means more than just listing-type mentions; reliable excludes Myspace, Facebook, blogs, places where anyone can post anything; independent excludes the subject's own website, affiliated ones and anything based on press releases. More detail at WP:Notability (people). The point is that we do not decide what is important or significant; we ask, have other people, independent of the subject, found it important and significant enough to write about?
