It's a bad idea to write an article about yourself

Please do not write or add to an article about yourself, as you apparently did at Joshua D Niles. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to an existing article about yourself, please propose the changes on its talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was my page deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 18:13, 22 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Joshua D Niles

The article Joshua D Niles has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no reliable references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. —C.Fred (talk) 18:14, 22 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Username concerns

Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Joshuadniles", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it is misleading: you have started an article on Joshua D Niles, and this username suggests you are Niles, but you have stated you are not. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username by completing this form, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 19:20, 22 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
