 * External search engines like Google and Bing generally give very low rankings to Wikipedia editors' personal userpages, on the grounds that it's extremely unlikely to be what the searcher is looking for. Regarding our own search feature, unless one specifically changes the options (click on the magnifying glass) to include other areas, it only searches Wikipedia articles rather than userpages, for the same reason. Wikipedia isn't a webhost, and writing autobiographies is very strongly discouraged; if you do intend to create an article about yourself it needs to be sourced entirely to neutral reliable sources independent of the subject (books and newspapers which discuss you, rather than things written by you or by your publishers), as Wikipedia only covers material which can be sourced from elsewhere. &#8209; Iridescent 10:15, 12 November 2016 (UTC)
 * And search engines are now told to not index user space at all. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 10:18, 12 November 2016 (UTC)
 * They might have been told, but it doesn't mean they listen &#8209; Iridescent 10:43, 12 November 2016 (UTC)
 * I don't see any ghits to en:User:Jo-Jo Eumerus there. Maybe de-wiki, fr-wiki, etc don't request noindex on userspace. —teb728 t c 11:04, 12 November 2016 (UTC)

 * Please clarify what your question is in relation to editing Wikipedia. Please sign your posts on talk-pages by typing four tildes ( ~ ). Thank you. Eagleash (talk) 21:53, 12 November 2016 (UTC)


 * Perhaps that both Cyclone Hope and Tropical Storm Tim don't have their separate articles (We do have mentions of these in various other articles on Wikipedia though). Lourdes  03:24, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
