Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, " AmpersandBoroughCouncil ", may not comply with our username policy.

Examples of usernames that are not allowed include "XYZ Company", "MyWidgetsUSA.com", and "Foobar Museum of Art". However, you are permitted to use a username that contains such a name if it identifies you individually (not your role), such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87", but not "SEO Manager at XYZ Company".

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, service, or website, regardless of your username. Please also read our paid editing policy and our conflict of interest guideline.

 * Thank you for your comment. I believe that the username "AmpersandBoroughCouncil" does not violate your username policy as the "Ampersand Borough Council" is not a real local government. It is a made up name based around the "&" symbol, & it is also an inside joke between friends. AmpersandBoroughCouncil (talk) 21:49, 25 February 2024 (UTC)

About your edits to Paris
Hello! I rejected your recent edit to Paris adding a hatnote leading to Paris, Kiribati. I don't believe anyone looking for the abandoned settlement would go to Paris, rather to the disambiguation page for Paris. I recommend reading up on the Manual of Style on hatnotes & proper use of hatnotes. The opposite would be more appropriate- a hatnote on Paris, Kiribati leading you to Paris (disambiguation) makes a bit more sense.

Also, welcome to Wikipedia! If you have any questions, I recommend asking at the Teahouse, where experienced editors can answer any questions you may have about editing Wikipedia. Schrödinger's jellyfish &#9993; 22:28, 25 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Oops, it was Drmies who got around to it before I did. Regardless, though, I'd read up on hatnotes before inserting them. All the best, and welcome again. Schrödinger's jellyfish &#9993; 22:36, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
