Hi HJ, I am looking through various WIKI pages and can see quite a few autobiographical pages so I don't understand why a verified business person cannot have a page about their achievements or what is being promoted previously on the page set up, as the citations where about the persons businesses. Please advise. Thank you. Ingo Ronald Schweder (talk) 02:36, 5 October 2022 (UTC)

We don't have "wiki pages"; we have articles. I'm not sure which articles you have seen or how you know they are autobiographical, but the vast majority of articles are written by independent editors, not the subjects. It is not forbidden to write an autobiography, but it is highly discouraged per the autobiography policy. Wikipedia is not a place for people to document their existence and tell about their achievements and accomplishments; it is a place to summarize what independent reliable sources say about a person, showing how they meet the special Wikipedia definition of a notable person. If you want to tell the world about yourself, you should use social media. You are blocked as that's what you did, and you did not respond to inquiries/warnings.

The other issue is that you edited your user page(User:Ingo Ronald Schweder), which is not article space and is not searchable by outside search engines. It is a place to tell about yourself as a Wikipedia editor or user, it is not a place to tell anything and everything about yourself. See WP:USERPAGE for information on acceptable user page content. 331dot (talk) 07:30, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
