how do I write a biography? --Dinosaur 234 (talk) 03:12, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241129031200","author":"Dinosaur 234","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Dinosaur_234-20241129031200-Question_from_Dinosaur_234_(03:12,_29_November_2024)","replies":["c-IntentionallyDense-20241129223700-Dinosaur_234-20241129031200"]}}-->

Hi @Dinosaur 234 and welcome to Wikipedia. On Wikipedia we have a separate list of rules for biographies of living people (people who are still alive) which can be found at Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons. To write a biography it is important that you are not connected to the subject. Then you need to find reliable sources on the topic. This means sources that are independant of the person (not written by the person themself) and come from a reliable website. You can start your article in something called draftspace where the article won't actually appear on the web untill you are finished writting it. When writting about other people it is important that you maintain a neutral point of view, meaning that you represent the person in a neutral sense. A reader should not be able to tell your opinion on a person based on your Wikipedia article. The page Help:Your first article has tons of great advice about writing your first article.

In summary, use reliable sources, maintain a neutral point of view, and check out Help:Your first article.

I hope this helps and let me know if you have any questions as I'm here to help you!

@Royiswariii Hi, I unfortunately do not currently have time to review your article due to finals coming up and other on-wiki projects. However I will say that the article is looking much better. Some things to remeber are to spell out acronyms in full the first time you use them and make sure your footnotes are also cited. Good luck!

On 12 December 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Adrenal crisis, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the death rate from adrenal crises can reach as high as 6 percent? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Adrenal crisis. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Adrenal crisis), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
