Welcome!

Hello, Gordonhall70, 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:

Hi, Jimfbleak,
The article I created wasn't an article or autobiography about myself in any way shape or form and find it strange that it appears that way. I was creating a page about John Turner who is a recorderist musician, composer and writer about music based around the recorder.
So has the article I created been deleted? Cause I don't seem to be able to find it in any of my history settings, if so I would like to have access to it as I put a lot of time into it just for it to be deleted which is a little crazy to be honest.
Thanks
