Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Mrsupportfriend, 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:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- Tutorial
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
- Simplified Manual of Style

Hello, Mrsupportfriend!
Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! KylieTastic (talk) 14:54, 21 August 2022 (UTC)

- Please explain to me if I am a songwriter who has written songs for popular music artists how am I supposed to create a Wikipedia page that is compliant without posting the factual information about my songs that is also on my personal website? And as far as a person being "notable" I have written songs for some of the top music artists in the history of music, I see friends who have Wikipedia pages who have far less credentials than I do. I am David Paul Bryant and I have written this page with my own words. I am not a third party creating this page taking words and references related to David Paul Bryant. How do you suggest I make my page acceptable? Mrsupportfriend (talk) 15:19, 21 August 2022 (UTC)
- Mrsupportfriend firstly see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest and Wikipedia:Autobiography for why writing about yourself is very strongly discouraged. Secondly all new articles on Wikipedia have to show the subject is notable (See WP:N) which in most cases requires significant coverage (WP:SIGCOV) in multiple independent (WP:INDY) reliable sources (WP:RS). So using your own website is not an independent reliable source, and since http://mrsupportfriend.com/ is marked as copyrighted you can not repost post here (read the licence agreement you agree too with every edit - look just above the Publish button). It is also not written as a neutral encyclopedic article but more of a blog post or personal website. Note that Wikipedia "notable" is that others have noted and written about it, so if you have "written songs for some of the top music artists in the history of music" it is only notable if others have noted it and there is a reliable source to back it up.
