Thank you! thank you!! The first article was written by some really strange guy so it wasn't approved by Wiki and therefore deleted. And since then we couldn't find time to create a new one, so thank you so much! I'll try to add some information, i just hate to write about iamthemorning. Usually i just can't find proper words)

I'm fairly certain that Wikipedia doesn't allow articles written by the subject of the article. For people, certainly. Not sure about for bands.

As long as the article isn't biased or one-sided and is completely factual Wiki is fine with the subject writing his own article.

Hmm... I know I've seen articles, or at least parts of them, removed for being written by the subject. But I guess there's no outright ban on it. I did find this: "Creating an article about yourself is strongly discouraged. We want biographies here, not autobiographies."

This. There is no matter who is the author, but how well-balanced is the article.
