user page as statement of interests
edit | This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can , contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse. |
Hi, I wrote my user page to be a statement of my interests as a graduate student studying perception, as a pointer to the kinds of articles that I'm interested in working on or potentially collaborating on. E.g., I am currently working on this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Auditory_scene_analysis, a major rehaul of the current ASA page that currently requires an "expert" (unrelated: am I doing this in the right way?).
Can you please tell me what makes a User page acceptable? Autobiography? Links to the pages on Wikipedia that I'm working on? A specific sentence that says "I work on these kinds of pages/do this kind of editting ... "? Motivation for doing so?
Thanks! Kalekosphone (talk) 14:06, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
- To elaborate a little, a user page is a place to write something about yourself as an editor of Wikipedia. Maybe Jusjih can also comment on why they deleted your user page, but I expect the lack of a perceptible connection to Wikipedia played a part in the decision that the content was unsuitable.

The page Auditory scene analysis already exists. You may want to request that your draft be speedily deleted and work on improving the existing page instead. ~~~~10Eleventeen 15:24, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
