This was quite a while ago, but I believe that I copied the text from the website I own and created. I was wondering if you would check to see if the website was registered to me, but I guess you did not.

You can't expect us to know you are the copyright owner of the website. Copying text into wikipedia from elsewhere isn't good practice, even if you wrote that text. Any article in wikipedia belongs to the community to be edited and reused as anyone sees fit, and in order for that to happen the text needs to be appropriately licecnced. For that to happen you need to formally donate your copyright to wikipedia, you can't just expect this permission to be implicit by the very fact you submitted an article.

The current state of that article submission is rejected. It is not currently submitted for another review. To see why it was rejected, read the reasons provided on the submission page itself. Arthur goes shopping (talk) 08:55, 30 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

PrincessGame, Wikipedia is not for advertising, promotion, or "getting your name out there": Information must be unbiased, not self-serving. To ensure that it is unbiased, we require citations (references) to outside sources of information (newspapers, magazines, books, etc.). Only after people are well-known do they have articles on Wikipedia. Anon126 (notify me of responses! / talk / contribs) 00:56, 28 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
