In response to your feedback

Hi Fayaz Var. You can write about yourself on your userpage, which I see you've already done (bear in mind the userpage guidelines, though). However, you are strongly discouraged from writing an article about yourself (see the guideline on autobiographies). If you are genuinely notable, sooner or later someone else will write about you. If not - well, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not facebook; if you want to write about your own life, there are numerous social networking and blog hosting sites you can use instead.

Incidentally, I ran a couple of searches to see if you met the notability guidelines - I'm sorry to say that you evidently don't; sites such as LinkedIn, Facebook and Google+ are not admissable as sources. Yunshui 雲‍水 10:07, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
