Is it possible to create my own Wikipedia article? If it is, how can I do it?

I want to create my own article page on Wikipedia but I don't know how I can do it, if it is even possible can someone help me?

Type the name of the article, like

Article

into the search box. The results page will come up, saying that the page does not exist, and you can "create this page." Click the create link, and enter your information.

it is easy, when you search 4 something on wikipedia, on the side there is always written-"contribute..." Click on the link and you can create it

Don'r do it! Wikipedia is very bad. Wait for knol, the reliable encyclopedia that Google is creating. You will be allowed to edit there.

yes it is i think all you have to do is make an account and then find pages noone has done yet and make them

The easiest way is to add the word or term to another page in square brackets, or put square brackets around something on a page.

E.g. add [[sycamore trees in France]] to any page or talk page or even your user page.

The bracketted text will then show up as a red-coloured link on the page. If you click on this it will open a new but empty page called "Sycamore trees in France" which you can then edit to create the new article.
