Welcome!

[edit]

Hello, DrU1104, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you created or edited appears to be an article about yourself. Creating an autobiography is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians—as this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. We require individuals to meet Wikipedia's definition of a notable person to accept articles about them.

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. If your contributions to an existing article about yourself are undone and you wish to add to it, please propose the changes on its talk page.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I see you have been removing warning messages, please note that they still count, and this sort of bad faith editing just makes it more likely that you will be blocked Jimfbleak - talk to me? 20:05, 24 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for message. You can do what you like on your own page, but that doesn't change the fact that removing messages almost as soon as they are posted doesn't show much transparency. Similarly, this biography is the only topic that you have shown any interest in, so you are likely to be the person concerned, or conceivably someone close enough to him to have to declare a conflict of interest. You also say that you are not going to contribute anything else here, which reinforces that impression.

  • You have looked at the notability criteria for academics, and I am not convinced that you meet the criteria.
  • Your text is mainly either unreferenced or referenced to sources that are not independent of you, including your own papers, your own university page, and you your own organisation. The Northern Echo article is quoting you, and has a highly promo FaceBook based comment at the end. Google Scholar just lists what you have published, it doesn't establish notability because output is not a criterion for notability.
  • I think it's promotional because you are attempting to tell us about your own work.

I'm prepared to restore the text in principle, but you need to assure me that you can show that you currently meet the notability criteria and you can find better independent third-party sources. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the person or an associated organisation, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the person claims or interviewing them. If you claim not to be him, I think you need to clarify why you seem determined to write about him Jimfbleak - talk to me? 11:40, 25 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
