Welcome![edit]

Hello, Fosterjr, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you created or edited was Jon Foster (writer), which appears to be an article about yourself. Writing about yourself is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians.

As this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. We require individuals to meet Wikipedia's definition of a notable person to accept articles about them. A page you created about yourself may well be deleted from the encyclopedia. If it is deleted and you wish to retrieve its contents, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

If your contributions to an existing article about yourself are undone and you wish to add to or change it, please propose the changes on its talk page.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Jon Foster (writer) moved to draftspace[edit]

Thanks for your contributions to Jon Foster (writer). Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and article was deleted 17 months ago following Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jon Foster (writer). I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Wikishovel (talk) 14:33, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
