__NOEDITSECTION__ __ARCHIVEDTALK__ __TOC__ __EXPECTED_UNCONNECTED_PAGE__ = January 26 = Please help me verify my artist profileUser:Johannes9343 Please help me verify my artist bio. Thank you Johannes9343 (talk) 02:40, 26 January 2025 (UTC) :There's no such thing as an artist profile in Wikipedia, only encyclopedic articles about notable artists, which the page you linked to can not be classified as. Please delete the contents in your user page, otherwise it will be tagged for deletion. Consider taking some time to read WP:NOT and WP:GNG before creating any article in Wikipedia, including your own user page. Tutwakhamoe (talk) 02:49, 26 January 2025 (UTC) :Sample: "Whether commanding the piano or crafting beats in the studio, Johannes Tavdgiridze is an artist redefining musical boundaries and inspiring audiences across the globe." Where does one start to describe what's wrong here? -- Hoary (talk) 09:27, 26 January 2025 (UTC) ::Are there an independant source saying this ? Anatole-berthe (talk) 07:24, 28 January 2025 (UTC) Information from booksHeader added by ColinFine (talk) 11:03, 26 January 2025 (UTC) ::Hello, how are you? I would like to include information from books in Wikipedia articles, that is, from reliable sources. Can information from books be a reliable source? Thank you. (VVWiki8 (talk) 10:11, 26 January 2025 (UTC)) :::@VVWiki8 If the book is a reliable, independent and secondary source, absolutely. Ultraodan (talk) 10:28, 26 January 2025 (UTC) ::::Thank you. (VVWiki8 (talk) 10:34, 26 January 2025 (UTC)) :::::@VVWiki8 For general help on citing sources, see Help:Referencing for beginners. We normally use the template {{t|cite book}} for books and that link gives the full documentation. Mike Turnbull (talk) 14:12, 26 January 2025 (UTC) DeletedDeletion My Wikipedia page was deleted. Can I make any changes to the content and have it restored? The page name was Philip Krejcarek Pkrejc (talk) 11:51, 26 January 2025 (UTC) :{{U|Pkrejc}} Your article had no meaningful content, that is why it was deleted. Unless you have much experience in creating articles, it is highly recommended that you use the Article Wizard to create and submit a draft for review by another editor. Please read Your First Article. :Writing about yourself is highly discouraged, please read the autobiography policy. 331dot (talk) 11:56, 26 January 2025 (UTC) ::{{u|Pkrejc}}, you originally created the article with your surname in lower case. It was later moved to Philip Krejcarek, and then deleted as a result of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Philip Krejcarek.
