User talk:RexPflueger

Welcome!

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

I noticed that one of the first articles you created or edited appears to be an article about yourself. Writing about yourself is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians.

As this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. We require individuals to meet Wikipedia's definition of a notable person to accept articles about them. A 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.

If your contributions to an existing article about yourself are undone and you wish to add to or change it, please propose the changes on its talk page.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

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!

Hi. Can you explain what is wrong with my references and citations please? Also my name is Basia and I do have my own Wikipedia account, but made an account for my friend Rex and decided to attempt to write a wikipedia page for him. Is this an issue? Should I have used my own account to write the page/article? RexPflueger (talk) 03:24, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a way to change my name on this account? So that I do not have to delete everything and write it again on my other account? RexPflueger (talk) 03:25, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but as you're socking, I highly doubt you could get the permission to do that. Just one question, what is your other account? OhHaiMark (talk) 03:29, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oh no, I see. My other account is under my name, Basia RexPflueger (talk) 12:36, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

When I was working on my other account, I got to a point where it was saying my name instead of Rex. I was working on external links. Looking back, I now know what I should have done-this is the reason I made an a second account under Rex's name RexPflueger (talk) 12:38, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
