'''Thank you for using the Article Wizard!'''

Unfortunately writing an article about yourself (or someone or something very close to you) involves a '''[[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest|conflict of interest]]'''. This presents a number of problems, not the smallest of which is that it is very hard to remain [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|neutral]]. ''Pages that introduce a conflict of interest are not being accepted by the Article Wizard at this time.''

We encourage you to read [[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest]] and [[Wikipedia:Autobiography]], and point out that if the subject matter really merits an entry, then sooner or later someone will create one. Therefore '''we would encourage you ''not'' to create the article yourself'''.
