 | This is an essay on notability. It contains the advice or opinions of one or more Wikipedia contributors. This page is not an encyclopedia article, nor is it one of Wikipedia's policies or guidelines, as it has not been thoroughly vetted by the community. Some essays represent widespread norms; others only represent minority viewpoints. |
"I think, therefore I am," while a powerful philosophical statement, cannot be extended to Wikipedia. In other words, you cannot reword Descartes' famous quote to "I think, therefore I am notable". You do not qualify to have an article on Wikipedia simply because you exist. Your dearly departed relatives do not qualify to have an article simply because they existed. Your bouncing bundle of joy on the way does not qualify to have an article simply because they will exist. Leprechauns and fairies do not qualify to have an article simply because people think they exist – but their place in the world's culture makes them notable. If any of those have articles, then there are other reasons why they are notable.
