deletion

Generally, you may not write articles about yourself, your company (SEO bloggers/spammers/election agents, please take note), your club, or anyone whom you are closely related to. Only articles about truly notable subjects are kept. The most important reason for keeping an article in the encyclopedia is proof which must be provided with reliable sources that are entirely independent of the subject and which are published in books, magazines, newspapers, television programs, documentaries, etc. Websites such as blogs, the IMDB, directory, and social networking sites (Twitter, MySpace, FaceBook, etc.), and your own website are unlikely to be accepted as reliable.
