User talk:Woldae

April 2013

Hello, Woldae. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Wold Architects and Engineers, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. AllyD (talk) 20:08, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your username is the only reason for this block. You are welcome to choose a new username (see below).

A username should not be promotional, related to a "real-world" group or organization, misleading, offensive or disruptive. Also, usernames may not end in the word "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account.

Adding {{unblock-un|your new username here}} on your user talk page. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "E-mail this user" on their talk page.
At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.

Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Wold Architects and Engineers

I moved your recently created article, Wold Architects and Engineers, to Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Wold Architects and Engineers because

There was an {{afc submission}} template on it, AND
There was concern about the notability of the topic, AND
I didn't want to see this be deleted through WP:Articles for deletion due to lack of notability.

Please change your username and help the AFC reviewers get your submission into shape to be moved back into the encyclopedia. By the way, if you ARE strongly connected to this organization, you should not edit the article very much after it is moved into the main encyclopedia - see WP:Conflict of interest for details. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 03:50, 24 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Pending response to issues raised by Bwilkins below. Once you have addressed these questions, you may place another request. Thanks, --auburnpilot talk 21:17, 3 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Here are a few key questions:

Do you understand that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and not a business directory?
Do you understand conflict of interest?
Do you understand that to be considered for an encyclopedia article, the subject must be notable?

You are currently blocked because your username appears directly related to a company, group or product that you have been promoting, contrary to the username policy. Changing the username will not allow you to violate the 3 important principles above. Also, as this appears to be a real name, are you ok with the possible issues with using your WP:REALNAME?
