[edit]Hello, I'm 331dot. An edit that you recently made to Talk:Main Page seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want more practice editing, please use the sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! 331dot (talk) 13:21, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
Your username
[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Jsgames", may not comply with our username policy. Please note that you may not use a username that represents the name of a company, group, organization, product, or website. Examples of usernames that are not allowed include "XYZ Company", "MyWidgetsUSA.com", and "Foobar Museum of Art". However, you are invited to use a username that contains such a name if it identifies you personally, such as "Jack Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87".
Please also note that Wikipedia does not allow accounts to be shared by multiple people, and that you may not advocate for or promote any company, group, organization, product, or website, regardless of your username. Moreover, I recommend that you read our conflict of interest guideline. If you are a single individual and are willing to contribute to Wikipedia in an unbiased manner, please create a new account or request a change of username, by completing this form, choosing a username that complies with our username policy. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 13:21, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
I saw that you edited your sandbox to ask how to edit your name; I will respond here, which is typically where questions are asked. You cannot edit your username, but you can change it by going to this page for instructions and links on where to go. 331dot (talk) 13:29, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
I will add that if you represent a business, you will need to review the conflict of interest policy and, if you are editing here as part of your job, the paid editing policy before further edits. 331dot (talk) 13:30, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, I'm Haploidavey. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to GameRankings have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. Haploidavey (talk) 13:41, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
I must also add that you replaced an entry accurately cited to the GameRankings website with an uncited reference to the game you seek to promote. This kind of editing seriously damages the integrity of Wikipedia. Haploidavey (talk) 14:06, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

[edit]You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.
Please also note that you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87".If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}
at the bottom of your talk page.
You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text
{{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}
at the bottom of your talk page. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names.
Thank you. S Philbrick(Talk) 18:08, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
