User talk:Amnesty International USA

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. 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 below this notice. Thank you. Alexf(talk) 13:54, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

Despite the fact that the blocking administrator gave you a block notice emphasising the username issue, that is not in fact the only, or even the main issue. More important is the fact that your editing has been unambiguously promotional. Wikipedia is not a medium for promotion of anyone or anything, and editing that tells us in glowing terms how wonderful someone is is unacceptable. If you wish to contribute to the encyclopaedia in ways unrelated to promoting your organisation or people associated with it, you may appeal this block by adding the text, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.
