Welcome!

Hello, Slfepnipl, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Samuel F. Lee, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. 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 this 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 this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Samuel F. Lee requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.

There is no such thing as page ownership

[edit]

Please read about page ownership, a concept that does not exist on Wikipedia. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 10:53, 29 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. But that is a page about myself. Who do you think can help me create a page about myself? Slfepnipl (talk) 10:58, 29 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Someone has finally deleted the page I wrote about myself because you tagged it for speedy deletion, :-(...

Creating an article about yourself

[edit]

The article you created about yourself was deleted because it met the criteria stated in section A7 of Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion, i.e,

A7. No indication of importance (individuals, animals, organizations, web content).
An article about a real person, individual animal(s), organization (for example, a band, club, or company, not including educational institutions), or web content that does not indicate why its subject is important or significant.

Even if you create an article about yourself that does make a credible claim of importance, the article would be subject to deletion through the Wikipedia:Articles for deletion process if the community found that it did not meet the criteria in Wikipedia:Notability (people).

Articles in Wikipedia must be verifiable, have no original research, and be written from a neutral point of view. Another important guideline that applies in your case is Wikipedia:Conflict of interest, which states that editing Wikipedia to promote your own interests is incompatible with the aims of Wikipedia.

The Wikipedia community strongly discourages anyone from creating an article about his- or herself, as is explained in Wikipedia:Autobiography. If you do meet the criteria of Wikipedia:Notability (people), then it is likely that someone not connected with you will create an article about you. -- Donald Albury 02:50, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, fair enough. Slfepnipl (talk) 12:44, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

~~@Jeff G: I specified my latest amendment in the "Edit summary" - i.e. to prevent deletion of the page.

Second speedy deletion

[edit]

I have deleted your article again. There was no substantive difference between the previously deleted article and this latest one, and the same reason for speedy deletion applied. If you wish to, you may ask that the article be restored by posting at Wikipedia:Deletion review, but please do not continue to re-create substantially the same article that does not meet the criteria of Wikipedia:Notability (people). -- Donald Albury 12:33, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Slfepnipl. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Samuel F. Lee, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about following reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

  • Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
  • Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
  • Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
  • Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 23:30, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This is your last warning. The next time you remove or blank page content or templates from Wikipedia, as you did at Talk:Samuel F. Lee, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Please do not remove items, especially items germane to a current discussion, from article talk pages. Please be aware that your words, even unwise ones, in the Talk namespace do not get deleted from Wikipedia without the agreement of one or more administrators. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 23:49, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Too soon

[edit]

Hi Sam. Please understand that Wikipedia strongly discourages editors writing about themselves or their projects. Please read Wikipedia is not about YOU. Unlike sites which are built upon users writing and sharing about themselves, such as Facebook or Myspace, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and all content must be verifiable in relibale sources. Social networking sites are not reliable sources. If the time comes when you have gained the media coverage to be determinable as notable, someone might write about you... or might not. But please... don't be that guy. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 05:33, 29 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
