Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Fails WP: ANYBIO / WP:NPOLITICAN. Twitter is not an acceptable source

Welcome![edit]

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

I noticed that one of the first articles you created or edited appears to be an article about yourself. Creating an autobiography is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians—as this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. Your user page, however, is a great place to write about yourself, making sure to stay within user page guidelines. Just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit it normally.

The 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 it, please propose the changes on its talk page.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Political profile[edit]

Joshua, in answer to your query. Wikipedia is not a site which hosts election profiles for political candidates in electoral campaigns. If an individual is duly elected then it may warrant the creation of an article (see WP:NPOLITICIAN) but not before unless they have achieved some form of separate notability. Secondly Wikipedia has fairly clear guidelines in respect to conflicts of interest, the most important is that individuals do not write about themselves as this can be seen as self promotion and is likely to contain original research and personal biases. If someone considers that you are notable then they will create an article about you otherwise you just have to accept that you are not notable, in respect to Wikipedia standards.
