Welcome
[edit]Hello, Mackmot, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I notice that one of the first articles you created was Andy Mackie, 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:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- Tutorial
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
- Simplified Manual of Style
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! Dai Pritchard (talk) 15:17, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
Proposed deletion of Andy Mackie
[edit]The article Andy Mackie has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Promotional (auto-)biography that has been unsourced since 2008. Notability not established.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 12:09, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
- hi
- i dont understand why my page is up for deletion when i look at any other sporting individual their page appears as a resume as well :!! i have links to many pages where it says i do not
- please help me to improve it
- andy
- Andy, the reason your page is repeatedly up for deletion is because it is absolutely not allowed to use Wikipedia for self-promotion. We never add information about ourselves to Wikipedia. Others can't even add information about ourselves to Wikipedia either, unless we are notable, which you are not, and unless there are professionally published, reliable sources written elsewhere about us and cited here, which there are not. If you have further questions you are welcome to leave them below. As well, we would be interested in the names of the Wikipedia articles of other sporting individual whose pages appear as a resume, which you mention, unless you double-check and find that those individuals are notable and their pages here are written by other editors who properly cited them with reliable sources.
