Concerns with your editing[edit]

Hello, Tiiya, and welcome to Wikipedia. As you know, various concerns have been raised about your editing, and I thought it might help if I tried to clarify things for you. The main problem seems to me to be that you are using Wikipedia only for self-promotion. Wikipedia is not a free advertising service, a free web host, or a social network site. The purpose of editing Wikipedia should be to contribute to the encyclopaedia. We do allow users whose primary purpose is to contribute to the encyclopaedia to also put a little information about themselves in a user page, but even there the main focus should be on information related to their contributions to the encyclopaedia, and it is not acceptable to post extensive material not satisfying that criterion. Also, such content does not belong in talk pages (such as this one), which are only for discussions among Wikipedia editors related to editing the encyclopaedia. The page User:Tiiya Wilhson/sandbox was so clearly intended only for self-promotion that it has been deleted, in accordance with Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion. I see that at Wikipedia:Public domain you removed all content, replacing it with information aobut yourself. I assume that this was because, being new to editing Wikipedia, you did not understand the purpose of that page, and I am glad to see that you have not done anything similar again.

You are, of course, welcome to contribute to the encyclopaedia, and I am posting a welcome message which contains links to various pages that may help you to get started. I hope you will become a contributor to the encyclopaedia. However, if you are interested only in posting information about yourself, then you would be better advised to go to FaceBook, MySpace, or somewhere of the sort.
