Speedy deletion nomination of Klingon Language Wiki
Hello Lieven,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Klingon Language Wiki for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
Oh - the source problem again :-) I have now added a handful of sources, I hope that at least one of them is an accepted reliable source. -- Lieven (talk) 05:48, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I can't speak for what other editors may have to say, but the sources looked okay to me at a glance. Thank you for your understanding! DonIago (talk) 13:36, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Fram, thanks for your notice. I am aware of the policy that autobiographies are discouraged (but not forbidden) and I know that this is not a place for self-display. Would it make any difference if a different person makes the first step? I think that this page about my achievements is notable, and it certainly complies with the rules of Wikipedia, at least it does on the German part of Wikipedia. I am the author of several books which were not published by myself, I am a notable expert on a special topic, there are multiple independant websites reporting about my achievements.
I'm disappointed to see you assert that "I think that this page about my achievements is notable". You should know that it is not for you to write about yourself, regardless of your perceived achievements. Wikipedia is no longer in the cowboy era of 2008 when the consensus might have let you get away with this vain, navel-gazing foolishness. I hope you take this opportunity to avoid writing anymore about yourself. We are the writers of the encyclopedia, not the subjects. Chris Troutman (talk)15:53, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I apologize for living in the past. It was my misconception that people might be interested in knowing about what I do. The German Wikipedia seemingly does. As I wrote above, I'll let others decide to write here now. -- Lieven (talk) 16:04, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
