RfA
Hi Mrld, I see you have been trying to nominate yourself for RfA. Please take a few minutes to read both WP:RFA and particularly the RfA instructions. These tell you what is expected of an RfA candidate and how to properly construct and submit your RfA. In particular you should not add your RfA to the WP:RFA page until you have completed it first.
That said, I should warn you that it is unlinkely that your RfA would be successful at this time. You are a relatively new editor with fairly few edits under your belt. Most editors who support RfA candidates are looking for several thousand edits over the course of several months. This is so we can get a fair impression of how well you know Misplaced Pages policy and how well you react in pressure situations.
