User talk:Blaxtrast

Welcome

Hello, Blaxtrast, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that one of the first articles you created was Blaxtrast, which appears to be an article about yourself. This is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians—as this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. Your user page, however, is a great place to write about yourself, making sure to stay within user page guidelines. Just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit it normally.

The 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.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

@Mr. Guye Aside from what i posted on your talk page, I'm curious, when i referenced rank 10 in tampa and i put up the link to reverb, if you click the link it shows you the sources, at which i have no control over the rank. So is that not a good reference to the material? (Blaxtrast (talk) 23:34, 27 April 2016 (UTC))[reply]

ReverbNation is not a reliable source subject to editorial oversight. None of your draft's sources is. You may want to read our notability guideline for musical artists and WP:Autobiography. I don't think Wikipedia is the appropriate venue for your purposes; MySpace may be a better choice. Huon (talk) 00:20, 28 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
