User talk:Genxjono
Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Genxjono, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I noticed that one of the first articles you created or edited appears to be an article about yourself. Writing about yourself is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians.
As this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. We require individuals to meet Wikipedia's definition of a notable person to accept articles about them. A page you created about yourself may well be deleted from the encyclopedia. If it is deleted and you wish to retrieve its contents, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.
If your contributions to an existing article about yourself are undone and you wish to add to or change it, please propose the changes on its talk page.
Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!

- I would assume I meet the exception of "notable person" due to verifiable sources. Genxjono (talk) 17:40, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
- Even in the case of people who meet Wikipedia's notability standard, we strongly, strongly discourage writing about yourself; autobiographical pages almost never meet one of Wikipedia's other standards, that of neutrality. This The idea is that if you are indeed notable, someone else who is unconnected to you - that is, someone without what Wikipedia calls a "Conflict of Interest" - should get around to writing about you sooner or later.

- Understood, but again simply under the definitions of the exception and the fact that it exists I feel the page is in fact written in a neutral tone and should remain.
- Regardless, thank you just the same. Genxjono (talk) 17:56, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
