Next steps
editHi, Your user page is for stuff about you, so that is fine the way it is.
Your sandbox is for drafts of articles, so that is fine for your draft article as well.
The next step will be to show that the subject of your article meets the requirements for a stand alone article. You will need to find reliably published sources, such as newspapers or books that have covered the subject in a significant manner (not just mentioning him in a cast list, but describing his acting). The sources also need to be independent of the subject of the articles (they cannot be the television sites for the shows that he is on) Youtub links generally are not reliable sources. IMDB is not considered "significant coverage" as it is only a reliable source to verify involvement in a film project.
Then comes clean up. Within the body text of an article, we only make links to other Wikipedia articles (so the links to IMDB in the movie names will need to be replaced) Then you will need to take the reliable sources that you found and use them to verify each claim in the article. The minimum for that is to put the link behind each sentence that it supports, but the best way is to format them as a citation.
Because you are writing about a living person, you need to take extra care that all content of a personal nature is sourced to the highest quality source and not merely a celebrity gossip web site.
Then you would read the article and anything that is only stuff that a fan page or celebrity gossip mag would cover, you would take it out. Remember that we are creating an encyclopedia, not a fan page.
When you have shaped it up, then you can ask for someone to review it as described in the Articles for Creation tag i put on your article.
good luck in your writing and searching for sources! -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 11:54, 11 November 2013 (UTC)
