 * Hi, Markus. There were a few issues with the page, which were not fixable by simply editing the text. The fact that it was written in Swedish wasn't the problem; this is the English-language version of Wikipedia and all pages must be in English, but there's quite a few of us who could have translated it. However, there were other problems. First, it looks like you were trying to create an article about yourself, which is strongly discouraged - see this information. Second, the page was your user page, which is different from an article: it is a place where you can add a little bit of information about yourself, but it should be information that is relevant to your work as a Wikipedia editor. Wikipedia is very different from websites like LinkedIn, and your user page is not a "profile page" or a page for advertising yourself. Third, the text was rather promotional, rather than informational, and so it would not have been appropriate in an article, either. Finally, and very importantly, Wikipedia articles are about subjects that are notable according to Wikipedia's definition. Demi Moore and Justin Bieber have already been written about in many major newspapers, in books, and in other encyclopedias. They are unquestionably notable - I'm afraid that it doesn't look as if you are, yet. These are the criteria that need to be met. When you are notable, somebody who is not connected to you will probably create an article about you. Regards, --bonadea contributions talk 18:15, 18 April 2015 (UTC)
