Contested deletion
This page should not be speedily deleted because I have been trying for several years to have a wikipedia profile as I am a well known and renowned professional in my field and have spent my whole life developing services for people with mental health and addiction issues. When I try to share some of this knowledge it is seen as marketing, but it is not. I do not need wikipedia to market myself, I already have many followers and clients. I am trying to be acknowledged and validated for the work I have done in the past and the new areas I continue to develop. I assumed that nbeing a published author would help this process but it seems you have an army of people waiting to pounce on genuine, professionals with "speedy deletions" I find this very sad.

 * There are many websites where you can promote yourself, or, to use your preferred wording, where you can post glowing accounts of yourself and your work with a view to "trying to be acknowledged and validated", but I'm afraid you have made a mistake in thinking that Wikipedia is the right place to do so, because that is not what Wikipedia is for. Wikipedia is for independent, third party, accounts, written from a neutral point of view, of subjects which satisfy Wikipedia's notability guidelines. It is not for writing about oneself in order to get recognition of oneself, no matter how strongly one may believe one is worthy of more recognition than one has so far received.
