By the way, you can sign your name on talk and vote pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;.

Conflict of interest
If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
 * 2) participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam); and,
 * 4) avoid breaching relevant 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 conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for businesses. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines.

Removing content from Karren Brady
Please do not delete content or templates from pages on Wikipedia without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Woody (talk) 10:16, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Blocked
This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia, because it has been identified as an account used for promotion of a company or group, with a username that implies that this has been done by that company or group. See Business' FAQ and Conflict of interest.

This kind of activity is considered spamming and is forbidden by Wikipedia policies. In addition, the use of a username like yours violates our username policy.

You may appeal this block by adding the text  or emailing the administrator who blocked you. Your reason should include your response to this issue and a new username you wish to adopt that does not violate our username policy (specifically, understand that accounts are for individuals, not companies or groups, and that your username should reflect this). Usernames that have already been taken are listed here. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  13:36, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Whatever your intentions with this account, it needs to be representative of an individual and not a business or organization - even if it is only your account, as it seems from your comment above, it still appears to represent a group, which falls afoul of the username policy. I note, also, that the image in question has been deleted, as noted, so - quite separate from any issues surrounding your username - your concerns were addressed.

You'll want to have a look at our conflict of interest policy. I appreciate that you're in a unique position to correct information about BCFC, but the information you provide would need to be confirmed elsewhere, as we require reliable sources for all information on the project. There is a means, via the OTRS system, for your organization to bring inaccuracies or errors to the attention of the project, so further problems can be addressed. If you, as an individual, which to request an unblock for the purpose of changing your username to one that complies with policy, we can discuss that.

I have replied to your e-mail. Please remember that you cannot edit Wikipedia as a marketing machine. This is in violation of our conflict of interest policies and as such, could get you blocked under the new username. Everything needs to be verifiable to reliable sources especially in Biographies of living people. You may want to use this template: Template:Unblock-un. Follow the instructions and add the name you want to be changed to. Woody (talk) 13:09, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
