User talk:WIX2985
Welcome!
[edit]Hello, WIX2985, 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. Creating an autobiography 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.
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. If your contributions to an existing article about yourself are undone and you wish to add to it, please propose the changes on its talk 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! Liz Read! Talk! 02:32, 1 January 2022 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, WIX2985,
You can not start a conversation on an article or draft talk page where there is no article or draft. It is called an "orphaned talk page" and they are deleted. Plus, no one will see the page and respond to you. You need to go to a user talk page or to the Teahouse and ask for help. Please do not create this page again, it will just be deleted and you will not get the response you are looking for. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 08:37, 1 January 2022 (UTC)
