The best articles on Wikipedia are worked on by multiple editors. It is to the benefit of yourself and all others if others are able to find and work on the articles you create. When you create a new page, it is very likely it'll go unnoticed at first. Wikipedia has millions of articles, and any given article may be a needle in a haystack, particularly if it refers to a topic that is not known to many. Since a good article usually has not been worked on solely by one person, but is a collaboration of many editors giving it their very best, it is in your best interest that you try to enable others to be aware of the new article's existence.
