Hello! Gareth Hall is not the appropriate place to post information about yourself, because it is in the part of Wikipedia where encyclopaedic articles are written. A "userpage" at User:Gareth.b.hall, however, is available for personal information about yourself. When adding personal information please remember that Wikipedia is not myspace. Your userpage is for anything that is compatible with the Wikipedia project. It is a mistake to think of it as a homepage: Wikipedia is not a blog, webspace provider, or social networking site. Please see Wikipedia:Introduction and Wikipedia:User page for more information. FreplySpang 09:39, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I'm sure. What must you do? I would say "nothing." We strongly discourage people from writing about themselves and their projects (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest for more details.) If you are interested in helping Wikipedia in general, we welcome your contributions - our welcome page has some suggestions for where to get started. Regards, FreplySpang 09:47, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
