Welcome![edit]

Hi Isiresy, welcome to Wikipedia! In general, it's discouraged here to write an article about yourself - see the guidelines at Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide. But if you might be interested in contributing on other topics, such as adding articles about artists you find inspiring, or important movements or projects that you care about, there are a lot of opportunities for improvement in many existing articles. I'd be happy to answer questions or help you find something to work on. Dreamyshade (talk) 04:39, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for this message. What I actually mean is that I want to have my own Wikipedia page. Many fellow artists have a page of themselves on Wikipedia. For instance, this is someone I know who has one: https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melle_Nieling

How do I make one like that? Isiresy (talk) 08:06, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

People aren't supposed to write articles about themselves on Wikipedia. If somebody eventually decides to write an article about you and your work, they can do that if they can find enough reliable sources to prove your "notability" - see the guidelines at Wikipedia:Notability (people). But you can't write an article about your own work while staying within the guidelines, as explained by the conflict of interest guide I linked.

Sorry, I know this can be frustrating! See Wikipedia:Conflict of interest - it explains that these guidelines are intended to maintain public confidence in Wikipedia. Dreamyshade (talk) 23:28, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
