Please, no autobiographies

You should wait for others to write an article about subjects in which you are personally involved, instead of writing it yourself, as you did at Timothy Michael Anselm Powers. 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. —C.Fred (talk) 05:45, 23 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please pick one account

Greetings! It seems that you created this account after editing as Tmp617 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) for a while. Please pick one account—it doesn't matter which of the two—and edit exclusively with it. Wikipedia has somewhat stringent guidelines against the abuse of multiple accounts, which you may run afoul of (inadvertently or otherwise) if you continue to edit with two accounts. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 05:49, 23 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent edits

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 07:01, 23 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
