Zinorah

Hi I am not using this to promote a product or a company but simply to add some biographical information on a New York based emergin artist with a great story. What I tried to add was his headshot and also artist statement which gave readers a good idea of who he is and where he is going. Should I be using something else? My apologies, Zinorah

Contested deletion

i am providing information i think is relevant to a new york city artist who has exhibited in new york, miami, germany and now france and i would like to share some of my discoveries of this person's art and contribute some facts.

I am providing factual data based on shows, art exhibits and galleries he has been represented by. --Zinorah (talk) 02:22, 21 September 2016 (UTC)

Your user page was deleted because it is only supposed to contain information about you as an editor (see my user page for example), not an article or a draft article. You can use the article wizard to draft a new article, but please do be aware that writing about people you have a personal or professional relationship with is strongly discouraged by Wikipedia's conflict of interest policy. Articles on artists are usually written by unconnected volunteers, not their management. Joe Roe (talk) 16:00, 21 September 2016 (UTC)
