Your user page
If the purpose of your user page is to just let your fellow editors know about you, then feel free to ignore the rest of this message!

However, if you are creating a draft of an article about yourself, then may I suggest that this is not a good idea?

For a person to have an article in Wikipedia, they need to meet the general notability guidelines - and also the notability guidelines for biographical articles and the Notability guidelines for academics.

Information in a biographical article should meet the Biographies of Living Persons policy (BLP) requirements - part of which says that all information in a BLP article should be verifiable using reliable independent sources (and cited).

If a BLP article does not meet the notability criteria, or can be verified, then any unreferenced material can be removed, or the entire article can be deleted.

As I say, if you are not doing a draft article about yourself (assuming it is you! Otherwise the same principles apply for an article about another person), then no worries (although you seem to be going into a lot of detail for an "about me" page).

If you have any questions, feel free to ask! --  Phantom Steve / talk &#124; contribs \ 19:58, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
