I've removed the warning tag about the username not being according to policy. I was incorrect. My point was to suggest that your username indicated that you were creating an article about yourself which, while not forbidden, is not recommended. My warning should have only been related to that fact. Usernames can certainly reflect real names and I should have known and remembered that before putting the warning on your page. My apologies.

Speedy deletion nomination of Donnie ray gianchand
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Donnie ray gianchand requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact
one of these administrators to request that the administrator
userfy the page or email a copy to you.

Hello!
Donnie ray gianchand is not the appropriate place to post information
about yourself, because it is in the part of Wikipedia where encyclopedic articles are written. A "userpage" at
User:Donnieraygianchand, however, is available for personal information about yourself. When adding personal information please remember that Wikipedia is not a social network such as MySpace or Facebook. 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.
