User talk:Sharifah Robertson
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The article you created at Sharifah Robertson is not suitable for a Wikipedia article, which must have a notable subject and be verifiable, but it may be a good start for your own userpage. I have moved it to User:Sharifah Robertson, which is where you are encouraged to write about yourself. You are free to move it back into the (Main) namespace but bear in mind that if you do so, it is likely to be nominated for deletion.
The purpose of a user page is to enable active editors of Wikipedia to introduce themselves to other editors. Wikipedia is not a general hosting service, so you should not consider your user page to be a personal homepage. Content unrelated to Wikipedia or its editing may be removed.
Please see the user page guidelines, especially this section for more information.
Please read WP:AUTO. The recommendation is always: wait until someone else writes a biography about you. -- RHaworth 07:37, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia. But…
…I've added the "{{prod}}" template to your user page (User:Sharifah Robertson), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy).
Please note that the purpose of a user page is not as personal homepage or used as a general webhosting service, but as way for active editors of Wikipedia to introduce themselves to other editors. If you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues here or on my user talk page. You may remove the deletion notice, and the page will not be deleted for the moment, but note that it may still be sent to Miscellany for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.
If you wish to contribute directly to Wikipedia and your page has already been deleted, you can ask any admin to undelete and restore it: if necessary, leave me a message and I'll pass on your request. To begin editing, here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Don't write about yourself
- Help pages
- Tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
Thank you, and happy editing. Calton | Talk 13:36, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
