Welcome to Wikipedia. Your account has been blocked from editing because your username gives the impression that the account represents a group, club, organization, company, or website. '''Your username is the principal reason for the block. You are welcome to continue editing after you have chosen a new username that complies with Wikipedia's username policy, which is summarized here.'''

You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable, regardless of the username that you choose. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid or compensated in any way, you must disclose who is paying you to edit here. Please take a moment to either create a new account, or request a username change of your current account here. The new username that you choose must represent you as an individual person, and it must comply with Wikipedia's username policy.
 * To create a new account with a different username, simply log out of this account and then click here to make a new one.
 * If you prefer to change the username on this account, you may do so by adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page (this page):.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken or in use by another account. You can go here to search and see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If the search returns that no global account with that username exists, that means it is available to be taken.

Please also note that you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it also identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87", but not "SEO Manager at XYZ Company".

Appeals: If your username does not represent a group, organization, website, or other entity described above, and if you believe that this block was incorrect or made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page:.

 * I can't clean this up for you or it will sign my name. Please read where it says "Copy the text as it appears on your page, not as it appears in this edit area", or you will copy code that messes it up. Instead of "new username" write the username you want. Drmies (talk) 19:48, 19 October 2023 (UTC)


 * You also need to read our guidelines (especially since you have a conflict of interest: read WP:COI and disclose properly), which also means you can't write promotional stuff like "The college specializes in delivering quality education and support to adult learners from diverse backgrounds". Thank you. Drmies (talk) 19:49, 19 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Oh dear: "The institution is renowned for its adaptability and responsiveness", "the College has maintained an unwavering commitment to excellence", and I'm sure there is more. I will have to revert that edit. Drmies (talk) 19:50, 19 October 2023 (UTC)
 * I apologize, I didn't realize - and definitely should have read through the Conflict of Interest prior to submitting changes. I will resubmit all edits/additional and properly disclose. Thank you for your guidance.  Amaira at Columbia College (talk) 20:06, 19 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Before any edits to the article in question, state pn your User page that you have a COI. Then, given the COI, the proper path for amending the article is to post proposed specific changes on the Talk page of the article, and then ask for an independent editor to look at your proposed changes and either implement or deny.

COI
You claim to work at that college. If that is the case, per WP:COI, you may not edit that article. If you wish to make further changes to that page, please to so on the article talk page. You are more than welcome to make edits elsewhere. Thank you, 47.227.95.73 (talk) 20:01, 23 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Your large addition, content referenced or not, was reverted because of your COI. You are limited to proposing changes on the Talk page. See WP:COI for how to request a decision on your proposed changes. I recommend proposing one section at a tim, with references. An independent editor will decide to implement or not.
