:@[[User:Yousef Alzaabi|Yousef Alzaabi]] Because you haven't cited a single source. See [[WP:GNG]] and [[WP:42]]. [[User:Mmemaigret|MmeMaigret]] ([[User talk:Mmemaigret|talk]]) 06:57, 16 March 2026 (UTC)
:Hello, @[[User:Yousef Alzaabi|Yousef Alzaabi]], and welcome to the Teahouse
:A Wikipedia article should be a [[WP:Neutral point of view|neutral summary]] of what the [[WP:DUEWEIGHT|majority of people]] who are [[WP:Independent sources|wholly unconnected]] with the subject have independently chosen to publish about the subject in [[WP:Reliable sources|reliable publications]], (see [[WP:Golden rule|Golden rule]]) and not much else. [[WP:No original research|What you know]] (or anybody else knows) about the subject is not relevant except where it can be [[WP:Verifiability|verified]] from a reliable published source.
:This means that to successfully write an article about yourself you would first have to find places where people wholly unconnected with you have published material ''about'' you, and then effectively forget ''everything'' that you know about yourself and write a summary of what those people have said about you. Do you see why this is so amazingly difficult to achieve that [[WP:autobiography|writing about yourself]] on Wikipedia is '''strongly''' discouraged?
