Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended for publicity and/or promotional purposes. If you intend to edit constructively in other topic areas, you may be granted the right to continue under a change of username. Please read the following carefully.

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, website or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements and using Wikipedia for promotion. Wikipedia has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but such groups are generally discouraged from using Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.
 * Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Probably not, although if you can demonstrate a pattern of future editing in strict accordance with our neutral point of view policy, you may be granted this right. See Wikipedia's FAQ for Organizations for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, organization, or clients. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit Wikipedia again.
 * Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?


 * What can I do now?

If you have no interest in writing about some other topic than your organization, group, company, or product, you may consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead. If you do intend to make useful contributions here about some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:


 * Add the text on your user talk page.
 * Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy.
 * Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text below, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. -- Orange Mike &#124;  Talk  17:09, 15 July 2014 (UTC)

Request to unblock and change username
Thank you, Yunshui, for recommending that I be unblocked. Thank you, OrangeMike, for recommending that Yunshui unblock my account and change the username. There seems to be some confusion if user:Southwest Monarch Study and user:mdann52 are the same. They are not. The block was only for the invalid username and the appearance of self promotion. I grateful that concerns have been resolved in this matter. I am happy to discuss other issues as needed after I am unblocked. Southwest Monarch Study (talk) 14:56, 20 July 2014 (UTC)

Violation of Copyright
On the edit history of the article Monarch butterfly the following edit was posted: 07:49, July 15, 2014‎ Mdann52 (talk | contribs)‎ m. . (68,291 bytes) (-635)‎. . (→‎top: rv link to copyvio material (Ticket:2014071510000218))

I would like to maintain that no copyright infringement was done. I referenced a url to a website, a normal and typical practice. No copyrighted material (the raw data itself) was/is used in this section of the article. No word-for-word text was copied from the reference and then pasted to the article.

There seems to be some confusion of what constitues a copyright violation. I can only say that this/these users are well-intentioned and are responding in good faith, wishing to enhance and improve the article. I have been privately contacted by a representive of Southwest Monarch Study via email. I would rather resolve this issue with the assistance other editors who have the expertise of determining copyright violations here on wikipedia rather than thru private corespondance.

Response
User:Southwest Monarch Study is not User:Mdann52. Because of my newness,I reported that the data was used without our permission via an email to info-en@wikimedia.org. I received a response on July 15 with Ticket#2014071510000218 that the post was removed.

From my understanding, the block is due to using the name Southwest Monarch Study and the perception of self-promotion. Southwest Monarch Study (talk) 06:05, 20 July 2014 (UTC)
