User talk:BJCtwit

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which 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 or request a change of username. 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 at the bottom of your talk page. 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 at the bottom of your talk page. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. Thank you.  ceran  thor 01:44, 8 January 2019 (UTC)

Ceranthor, how do I change my user name? NSCF Steering Committee (talk) 03:06, 8 January 2019 (UTC)

I’d Prefer to change use name

 * The only edit this user has made was an attempt to stuff a bit of trivia about a well-known actress having attended a local camp when she was a teenager (the NATIONAL student Commonwealth Forum (NSCF ) put on by the Royal Commonwealth Society of Ottawa). Neither of the sources supported the claims, and this appears to have been nothing but a COI edit attempt to promote the camp and the organizing group. Meters (talk) 05:44, 8 January 2019 (UTC)

I am confused by your questioning the credibility and conflict of interest of my proposed edit. It seems that you prefer third party input and suppress the input of a known and credible organization.

The Royal Commonwealth Society of Ottawa has been a registered charity in Canada for over 50 years and operated the National Student Commobwealth Forum for over 47 years. Our Forum engages and empowers youth on global issues: climate change; food security; sustainable development; immigration and refugees sustainable cities .... The Duke of Edinburgh has been a speaker at our forum.

The proposed edit reports the fact that Sandra Oh successfully APPLIED and participated in our national student leadership program, whose participant have gone on to be Members of Parliament, international diplomats and business leaders, environmentalists and yes award winning actresses.

I don’t consider my factual edit trivia, compared to the less prestigious “She joined a drama group ... and a comedy group.”

Exactly! Especially if an exalted and highly self-esteemed organization uses Wikipedia to promote itself. BTW, all content must be cited from reliable sources that are unconnected with the subject and have a reputation for fact checking. We have no interest in what organisations have to say about themselves. We have no interest in organisations promoting themselves via external links. I believe that the blocking admin made an error in not making a condition that you not edit about yourselves or add links to your organization. That would be a requirement for me to unblock you. I will leave the unblock request undeclined and another admin can you unblock you if they see fit.-- Dloh cier ekim  (talk) 16:30, 8 January 2019 (UTC)
 * https://www.nscf-fnec.ca did not mention Sandra Oh at all, so it id of no use in supporting the claim that Oh participated in the NSCF program in 1988, or at all, for that matter. And https://www.RCS-ottawa.ca does not mention the NSCF, so it is of no use in supporting the claim that the Royal Commonwealth Society of Ottawa (RCF) runs the NSCF, let alone that it has done so for 50 years. I doubt the the info about her attendance at the NSCF could be justified in the article, but the material about the RCF simply does not belong in this article, even if it were properly sourced.
