[edit] Eli Poulin

non notable and vanity. The main author of the article is Elipoulin. A Vanity prod was placed on the 7th and removed without comment by Elipoulin on the 8th. That pretty much sums it up. IrishGuy 21:59, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

All I am trying to do is edit my music bio. Please and thank you, Eli —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Elipoulin (talk • contribs).

Not everyone in the world gets an entry in Wikipedia. That is the point. This is vanity. It belongs on your user page, not in an article. IrishGuy 22:32, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

What can I post about my music then? Im not streching the truth by any means. I am very careful about what I say, what can I put? Please dont delete this, Im for real! This isnt vanity, this is how I started out and what I am currently doing for music.

Is is vanity. You are writing about yourself. It belongs on your user page, not as an article. IrishGuy 22:43, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

How am I able to edit my user page? I am pretty green, I would appreciate your help. How do other bands get on here and they arent falling under the catagory of vanity? Like U2 or REM?

U2 and REM didn't write their own articles. Additionally, their fame, record sales, etc. have allowed them to meet the notability and verifiability standards of Wikipedia. As for your user page, when you log in you will see a toolbar on the top right of the screen. Click on your username and then edit that page. If you have any questions/problems, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Please don't take any of this personally. It isn't meant as an attack on you. IrishGuy 23:11, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
