[[Wikipedia:Requested articles]] asks for someone else to write an article for you. It's a very good page that serves a necessary purpose. But there's an additional, separate problem now: an anonymous user has already written several sentences or paragraphs, and needs to turn this into an article. That's what [[Wikipedia:Articles for creation]] is for. IP users can post their text to this page, and a registered user will put it into an article (if appropriate), or offer other help.

Thanks for the clarification — I understand its purpose now.
