 * Is your username your personal username, or that of a company? (company names as usernames are not permitted)  Wikipedia is not a place for people to write about themselves, this is an encyclopedia. As an encyclopedia, Wikipedia summarizes what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about (in this case) an author, showing how the subject meets Wikipedia's special definition of a notable author. Wikipedia is not interested in what someone wants to say about themselves.  While not forbidden, autobiographical articles are strongly discouraged per the autobiography policy, in part because people naturally write favorably about themselves.  In order to succeed at writing an article about yourself, you in essence need to forget everything you know about yourself and everything you have done in your life, and only write based on the content of independent sources completely unconnected with you(no press releases, routine announcements, brief mentions, or other primary sources).  Most people cannot do that, though it is technically possible.
 * If you truly feel you can write an encyclopedia article about yourself, you should use Articles for Creation to create and submit a draft for review by an independent editor, who if they accept it, will formally place it in the encyclopedia. 331dot (talk) 21:40, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
