Welcome!
Hello, Percymakhuba, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you created or edited was User:Percymakhuba/sandbox, which appears to be an article about yourself. Creating an autobiography is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians—as this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. We require individuals to meet Wikipedia's definition of a notable person to accept articles about them.

The page you created about yourself may well be deleted from the encyclopedia. If it is deleted and you wish to retrieve its contents, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page. If your contributions to an existing article about yourself are undone and you wish to add to it, please propose the changes on its talk page.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome!

Help request
Help me with my my page Percymakhuba (talk) 17:35, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
 * You seem to be a new editor, so I've tried to be helpful by combining duplicated help requests and moving it to the bottom of the talk page, since that's the standard place for new sections. I've also supplied a section header.
 * The page you created seems to be an attempt to promote yourself. That will not be allowed. You should also understand that autobiographies are strongly discouraged.
 * If you think you meet the notability criteria that apply to artists, writers, and other creatives, you are welcome to create a draft, but you must use reliable, independent sources as references. An Amazon storefront page will not be accepted as a reference. I suggest that you start by reading your first article. Successfully creating a new article on Wikipedia is one of the hardest things you could choose to do as a new editor. It is likely you will get to the goal of creating a new article sooner if you first spend considerable time (2 months? 200 edits?) improving existing articles. That may seem a long time, but it will surely be less frustrating than spending all of your time on creating an acceptable draft and getting repeated declines.  — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 18:30, 17 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Thanks, indeed you tried your best is just some of the codes used I might understand them maybe that is the reason you thought I’m taking your advice and true I am a new editor and I real wanted help on page that’s I keep on editing in hope that one day I might do better. I wanted my page address the high in South Africa If I can be given a chance maybe I can improve I you’ll consider my request Percymakhuba (talk) 19:20, 17 January 2022 (UTC)


 * I've tried to give due consideration to your request already. Take one of the tutorials, available through WP:Introduction.  — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 20:56, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
