Speedy deletion nomination of Newaj rayhan


A tag has been placed on Newaj rayhan, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

it appears to be an autobiography with no context to why it is important

This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Please do not write or add to an article about yourself, as you apparently did at Newaj_rayhan. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – 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 an existing article about yourself, please propose the changes on its 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 my page deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator. Thank you. Please do not make autobiographies. Kadzi (talk) 10:13, 20 July 2013 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not for writing about yourself
Welcome to Wikipedia, but it is not a place like LinkedIn or Facebook for people to write about themselves or post their CVs. It is a quite different sort of site, a project to build an encyclopedia, so it is selective about subjects for articles, and writing about oneself is strongly discouraged, for reasons explained at Wikipedia is not about YOU and Autobiography.

Wikipedia user pages are for contributors to the encyclopedia to say something about themselves and their Wikipedia work, to help communication within the project. They are not for substantial content... that is unrelated to Wikipedia. The policy WP:NOTWEBHOST advises that: "'Wikipedians have their own user pages, but they should be used primarily to present information relevant to working on the encyclopedia. Limited biographical information is allowed, but user pages should not function as personal webpages or be repositories for large amounts of material that is irrelevant to collaborating on Wikipedia. If you are looking to make a personal webpage or blog or to post your résumé, please make use of one of the many free providers on the Internet or any hosting included with your Internet account.'"
