Contested deletion

This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... (we are representing the African perspective that has been largely misrepresented or ignored. Wikipedia will make much more sense when cultural facts can be presented first-hand by those whom the articles speak about. That is us, we understand Africa, we are part of it. Christianity has been made part of us and we understand it, so has Islam... Moses has become part of us, so when we talk about Mount Moses, it is spiritual, we have our own special kind of light that can help illuminate the bigger picture allowing new and very helpful angles of understanding reality for very many people.) --Mountmosmos (talk) 23:28, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing in a Wikipedia article should be "first-hand". Rather, articles should summarize what reliable and independent sources say about a subject, and should do so in a neutral way without any promotion or "talking up", since Wikipedia does not permit promotional material. But in any case, your user talk page would not be the appropriate place for such material. If you want to write a draft article, you can do so by creating a draft or in a userspace sandbox.
