Hello. Your recent edit to Steele_(surname) appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you. -=Troop=- (talk) 22:02, 5 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Self promotion on your user page

Hello, The Real Steele,

I'm afraid you've bumped up against our policy on self-promotion. Wikipedia isn't really for self-promotion (see our policy on promotion on user pages here). I'm removing the link to your Amazon author page, and making it more clear that this is a user page, not an article, by adding a banner notice at the top. Please don't re-add that link. A Wikipedia user page is primarily for telling Wikipedia editors a little about one another, not a home page. But I'm leaving everything else in place for now in case you decide to actively edit.

If you're interested in contributing to the encyclopedia, I'll leave a welcome template with useful information below. Let me know if you have any questions. --Floquenbeam (talk) 22:41, 5 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have deleted your user page since it seemed to be an attempt to write a promotional autobiography. Please read Wikipedia:Autobiography and Your first article. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 01:24, 6 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (January 15)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Bearcat was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). 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:

The key to getting into Wikipedia is not just to state that you exist; it is to show that you have received enough reliable source coverage in media to pass our notability standards for musicians.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to User:The Real Steele/sandbox and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to User:The Real Steele/sandbox, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

your user name

There have been two problems with this account: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group or a web site, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing. Additionally, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for your contributions to Wikipedia, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In that reason, you must:

Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block. To do so, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page, replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason for thinking that the block was an error, and publish the page.
