While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

 * Hello Mmconti, Wikipedia discourages editors from writing autobiographies (WP:AUTOBIO). – Thjarkur (talk) 16:59, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Michael M. Conti
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions; however, it appears you may have written a Wikipedia article about yourself, at Michael M. Conti. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – please see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to or change an existing article about yourself, you are welcome to propose the changes by visiting the article's talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was the page I created deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss this with the deleting administrator. Thank you.

Response & Question to Nomination of Michael M. Conti for deletion
I have updated Michael M. Conti for additional evidence of notability based upon my understanding of providing a meaningful contribution. This is not an attempt to make an autobiography but provide a historical record of public-facing work that can be further edited. Here are my questions: Should I add new articles for the films that I am referring to first? Based upon what I have currently provided, should I remove and sandbox my biography, and ask someone else to edit and publish it to avoid conflict of interest? I appreciate the level of seriousness that is taken here and want to follow the best procedure. Mmconti (talk) 17:09, 31 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I would not recommend creating articles about the films as it does not appear that they meet Wikipedia's inclusion criteria yet. Wikipedia usually recommends not writing about oneself or one's own work, because if the subjects are truly notable someone else will eventually write about them. While it is possible to submit such conflict-of-interest articles for review here, it is necessary to demonstrate notability (a term with a very arcane meaning here on Wikipedia). Since the deletion discussion is already ongoing, it's not necessary to sandbox the article. You are welcome to partake in the discussion – the thing being discussed is whether it can be shown that significant coverage in multiple, independent, reliable sources exists. – Thjarkur (talk) 18:08, 31 December 2020 (UTC)
