Your user page

I noticed that you moved your user page, User:Pronil, to Wikipedia:Pronil Halder, The American-Indian Writer. I have moved it back, as the "Wikipedia" prefix is only for pages that help to organise the project - see Wikipedia:Namespace for more on this. The page cannot be used as an encyclopedia article either, since it has no references to reliable sources to show that the person is notable by Wikipedia standards. For more on that, see Wikipedia:Autobiography. -- John of Reading (talk) 09:32, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not for writing about yourself

Welcome to Wikipedia, but it is not a place like Facebook or LinkedIn for people to write about themselves. It is a quite different sort of site, a project to build an encyclopedia, so it is selective about subjects for articles, and writing about oneself is strongly discouraged, for reasons explained at Wikipedia is not about YOU and Wikipedia:Autobiography.

Wikipedia user pages are not like those at social-networking sites. Their use is explained at WP:NOTWEBHOST:

"Wikipedians have their own user pages, but they should be used primarily to present information relevant to working on the encyclopedia. Limited biographical information is allowed, but user pages should not function as personal webpages or be repositories for large amounts of material that is irrelevant to collaborating on Wikipedia. If you are looking to make a personal webpage or blog or to post your résumé, please make use of one of the many free providers on the Internet or any hosting included with your Internet account."

You can find out more about Wikipedia at the WP:Welcome page and the WP:Introduction. JohnCD (talk) 16:11, 15 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
