User talk:Rahad555

Welcome
Hello, Rahad555, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that one of the first articles you created was Rahad Chowdhury, which 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! Dan Koehl (talk) 12:36, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Rahad Chowdhury
Hello Rahad555,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Rahad Chowdhury for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Dan Koehl (talk) 12:37, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not for writing about yourself
Welcome to Wikipedia, but it is not a place like Facebook or LinkedIn for people to write about themselves. 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 not like those at social-networking sites. Their use is explained at WP:NOTWEBHOST: "'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.'" The links in the Welcome message at the top of this page will tell you more about Wikipedia. JohnCD (talk) 15:15, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

 * Sorry, but as I have explained above, Wikipedia is not for what you want to do, and time you spend here writing about yourself will just be wasted. JohnCD (talk) 17:49, 15 March 2015 (UTC)
