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 N. G. Pirounakis. 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.)

If you aren't N. G. Pirounakis, then I apologize for assuming that you were. However, if you are, I don't plan to nominate the article for deletion; I would be more than happy to move it to your user page for you. Writing about yourself and your accomplishments is more than welcome here at Wikipedia, just as long as you do it on your own user page, not in a general article. If you need any help, please feel free to message me on my talk page. Once again, welcome to Wikipedia!--Nkrosse (talk) 23:34, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
