Could you please give me a stay on this content deletion? Sorry for multiple pages, I intended to create just one page "Tony Calice".

I feel that I have useful content for the community.

I acknowledge that publishing open and transparent information is viewed as eccentric by some, but I believe I can demonstrate value.

Bottom line: could you please just delete the other page names and keep the Tony Calice page? Tonycalice (talk) 17:23, 18 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Wikipedia articles cover notable topics—those that have gained sufficiently significant attention by the world at large and over a period of time, and are not outside the scope of Wikipedia. We consider evidence from reliable and independent sources to gauge this attention. The notability guideline does not determine the content of articles, but only whether the topic should have its own article. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 17:25, 18 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
  • I'm sorry, but it doesn't look like you have enough coverage to show where you're a notable person by Wikipedia's guidelines for people. Don't take this badly - this is a very hard guideline to pass and there have been multi-millionaire business owners who have failed notability guidelines. As far as useful information goes, feel free to contribute - it's just that you shouldn't be writing about yourself on Wikipedia in general as it poses a conflict of interest.

Writing about yourself

edit

You are welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, but it is not a social media site like Facebook or LinkedIn for people to write about themselves. It is a quite different sort of site, a project to build an encyclopedia, so it is selective about subjects for articles. Writing about oneself is strongly discouraged, for reasons explained at Wikipedia is not about YOU and Wikipedia:Autobiography.

Wikipedia user pages are not like those at social networking sites. Their use is explained at WP:NOTWEBHOST:

"Wikipedians have individual user pages, but they should be used primarily to present information relevant to work on the encyclopedia. Limited autobiographical information is allowed, but user pages do not serve as personal webpages, blogs, or repositories for large amounts of material irrelevant to collaborating on Wikipedia. If you want to post your résumé or make a personal webpage, please use one of the many free providers on the Internet or any hosting included with your Internet account. The focus of user pages should not be social networking or amusement, but rather providing a foundation for effective collaboration. Humorous pages that refer to Wikipedia in some way may be created in an appropriate namespace. Personal web pages are often speedily deleted."

You can find out more about Wikipedia at the WP:Welcome page and the WP:Introduction, as well as Wikipedia's plain and simple conflict of interest guide. Thanks. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 17:23, 18 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
