User talk:Ryanflores79

Welcome

Hello, Ryanflores79, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that one of the first articles you created appears to be an article about yourself. This is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians—as this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. Your user page, however, is a great place to write about yourself, making sure to stay within user page guidelines. Just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit it normally.

The page you created about yourself has been or will shortly be speedily deleted from Wikipedia, but if you want to use the content from it, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! Crusio (talk) 08:56, 26 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion

Hi, I deleted your recent article because it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts or show that it meets the music notability guidelines. It had no such references, and the external links were to non-independent self-made sources. If the band truly is notable, it shouldn't be too difficult to find proper independent sources to show that it meets the criteria.

Personal biographies of band members can't really survive unless the band itself has a stable article. Even then, if the entry is just "X is a member of band Y", that's hardly enough for a stand-alone article. Please note that it is now wikipedia policy that biographical articles about living people must have independent verifiable references.
