From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
You should wait for others to write an article about subjects in which you are personally involved, as you did at Morten Vebjørnsen. This applies to articles about you, your achievements, your band, your business, your publications, your website, your relatives, and any other possible conflict of interest.
Creating an article about yourself is strongly discouraged. If you create such an article, it might be listed on articles for deletion. Deletion is not certain, but many feel strongly that you should not start articles about yourself. This is because independent creation encourages independent validation of both significance and verifiability. All edits to articles must conform to Wikipedia:No original research, Wikipedia:Neutral point of view, and Wikipedia:Verifiability.
If you are not "notable" under Wikipedia guidelines, creating an article about yourself may violate the policy that Wikipedia is not a personal webspace provider and would thus qualify for speedy deletion. If your achievements, etc., are verifiable and genuinely notable, and thus suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later. (See Wikipedia:Wikipedians with articles.) Thank you. Hqb (talk) 11:02, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

Not to be rude, but are you an administrator
- No, I am not an administrator; the above notice was for your information only, in case you were unaware of the relevant Wikipedia policies. Hqb (talk) 11:26, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
- Okay
- But if i rewrite the whole article and cut something out, will it then be holdable for Wikipedia
- That's not really for me (or any one editor) to decide, but I think that right now you need to be more concerned about notability than neutrality. In most cases, a biased article can be fixed; but if the article doesn't establish that the subject is notable by referencing reliable, independent sources, then it's likely to get deleted outright.
