Copyright and notability
Wikipedia cannot accept copyright material, not even temporarily, not even in sandboxes or user pages. Please read Copy-paste.

It is possible for the actual copyright holder to make a formal copyright release, but that is seldom worthwhile because material written for other purposes is not usually suitable for an encyclopedia article, which requires a WP:Neutral point of view. Also, Wikipedia has an inclusion test called Notability, which is not a matter of opinion but has to be demonstrated by showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject."

There is more detail at WP:Notability (people) and good general advice at WP:Your first article. JohnCD (talk) 23:00, 25 November 2014 (UTC)

Your account has been blocked indefinitely because the chosen username is a clear violation of our username policy – it is obviously profane; threatens, attacks or impersonates another person; or suggests that you do not intend to contribute positively to the encyclopedia (see our blocking and username policies for more information). We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia, but users are not allowed to edit with inappropriate usernames and we do not tolerate 'bad faith' editing such as trolling or other disruptive behavior. If you think there are good reasons why these don't describe your account, or why you should be unblocked, you are welcome to appeal this block – read our guide to appealing blocks to understand more about unblock requests, and then add the text at the end of your user talk page.
