Welcome to Wikipedia! I'm glad you want to get involved, but I'm afraid there's a problem with the article you created, Empuze. It's about a person, but the person doesn't appear to meet Wikipedia's notability criteria. It's a common mistake for new users to make, but Wikipedia isn't a directory, but an encyclopedia- we don't need an article about every person in the world, but only those who have been written about in newspapers, magazines, and books, and we all avoid writing about ourselves. Biographicon is a directory of biographies of people, without a notability requirement, and might be a better place for you to put your profile. I hope that's helpful- feel free to ask me if you have any questions.
Speedy deletion nomination of Empuze edit
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Empuze requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Noiratsi (talk) 22:29, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
December 2012 edit
Please do not write or add to an article about yourself, as you apparently did at Empuze. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to an existing article about yourself, please propose the changes on its talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was my page deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator. Thank you.
