I am new to Wikipedia as a user, not as a reader. I will try and keep my question as concise and to the point as I can: I am a rising amateur model in California who is also in process of writing a book. I understand that we cannot make articles about ourselves (Wikipedia would be a MESS if that were allowed), but if we have actual credibility under our name, and we simply want to legitimately put our biography and information on this site as a reference and information source, is there any way to get this done? Can it be requested for someone else to do instead? Thank you VERY MUCH to any editor who helps answer this! Zyzxxinfinity (talk) 01:20, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
- Actually you can write an autobiography as it is not forbidden, rather strongly discouraged as ill advised. WP:COI contains more information on this. Also, even if you are accurate with your facts, they can only be included when verifiable in secondary sources. Significant coverage in reliable sources is also a main criteria for article inclusion and can not be overlooked. If this helps, great, if you need more assistance freely ask your questions.
