Welcome!

edit

Hello, 0zwood, 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. 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. 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:

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! MoonyTheDwarf (Braden N.)

Difference between User pages and Articles

edit

A user page is not an article, to put it simply, and should not be treated as one. User pages are intended to tell other editors who you are, and do not function as a place to put your autobiography. A decent example is my userpage, here. You shouldn't try and write a autobiography anyways, as you do not appear to be notable, and writing autobiographies on wikipedia is strongly discouraged. --MoonyTheDwarf (Braden N.)
