Hi I have been improving my page and tomorrow I will include more references to show that my scentific work is well recognized by important physical journals. Besides I will add the reference tomy books as well Energy and geometry (World scientific) and Deformed spacetime (springer). As I am a new user I am not very fast at editing my page that you may still deem for deletion. For today (it is 9.00 pm in Rome Italy) I have done my best to improve it and get it up to wikipedia standards.
What I am asking you is to put off any deleting or banning action, if you think there should be any, until tomorrow morning so that at least I can defend my page. Please do not delete it tonight (night for me). Thanks in advance for your patience with a new user nearly alone in this apparently endless ocean that are Wikipedia editing instructions.--Cardone Fabio 20:08, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome! Thanks for being interested in complying with the guidelines here, and to that end, I'd like to offer some helpful information to you. (I'll put it on your talk page as well): I realize Wikipedia might seem confusing at first, (please click on the blue words to read the policy/guide they refer to). Wikipedia is not like other sites you may have come across. First, it is an encyclopedia. What this means, is that it is not MySpace, or FaceBook, or a place to place your resume, or a place where editors can make articles about anything they wish. Wikipedia has Core policies, such as neutrality, notability, verifiability, etc. What does all of this mean? Well, it means that any article on Wikipedia must demonstrate notability (meaning it must be note worthy, covered by the media, etc.), and have reliable, third-party sources (such as news media articles, magazine/trade journal articles, not personal websites, blogs, or fan sites) written about the subject, and the information given in the article must cite those sources to verify it is true. From those sources, information is summarized, paraphrased, condensed, and worded neutrally to make an encyclopedic entry (information cannot be copied from other sites). See Wikipedia's manual of style, layout guide, your first article, article development, and how to edit for assistance. Additionally, Wikipedia has a conflict of interest guideline that states you should not create or edit articles about yourself, your company, your family, friends, etc., as you'd likely be unable to do so neutrally. Neutrality is one of the core policies of Wikipedia, and as you call this "Your" article, I assume you are the subject of the article. Without reliable, third-party sources to show notability. This article is basically your resume, and while you're obviously well educated and hold a respected position, unless you've been written up by the media or other journals that can be cited, I'm afraid the article doesn't have verifiability. I'd suggest that you refrain from editing the article directly, and instead, bring any sources you have to the article's talk page, to allow neutral editors to add them if appropriate. I hope this helps! ArielGold 20:18, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

I have removed all the sections for which I cannot provide verifiable sources. I redirect users to an external link. As for the NPOV policy I am trying and I will always try to keep all the statement as much impersonal as possible and to give references for each of them of verifiable sources belonging to to third parties such as Internationally recognized Journals and publishing firms. Being new to wikipedia I hope that my efforts in complying to Wikipedia policies will succeed in not having my page deleted. Should you deem that I have to correct something or improve its verifiability please let me know as soon as possible as I do not want to risk any sort of deletion. Above all I kindly ask you to be patient with my since, despite my striving in sticking to rules, I am still puffing and panting to catch up with all of them. Of course I am still working on the remaining sections in order to reference them as much as I can. Thanks so much for help, --Cardone Fabio 11:27, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
