Welcome
Hello, Rafael Torres Correa, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that one of the first articles you created appears to be an article about yourself. This is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians—as this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. Your user page, however, is a great place to write about yourself, making sure to stay within user page guidelines. Just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit it normally.

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.

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! Yngvadottir (talk) 20:28, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for creating Rafael Torres Correa, and for translating it. However, first, the English is not very good. I have made a few fixes and also listed it at a noticeboard where bilingual editors are informed of articles that need to be translated or fixed. Also, it really needs independent references to reliable sources to remain here on Wikipedia. I see two external links that may help. Please add anything else that you can, such as newspaper articles about you and web pages documenting your awards. Sources do not need to be in English. It is not a good idea to write an article about oneself, partly because it can be unpleasant to have to prove one's notability. But here are our notability guidelines for artists.
