February 2014
Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that the username you have chosen, "Goalglobal", seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of something other than yourself. Please note that you may not edit on behalf of a company, group, institution, product, or website which relates to the entity in question, and Wikipedia does not allow usernames that are promotional or accounts that are shared. If you are willing to use a personal account, please take a moment to create a new account or request a username change that represents only yourself as an individual. You should also read our Conflict of interest guideline and Plain and simple conflict of interest guide, and remember that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you. Hell In A Bucket (talk) 15:32, 18 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi there. I notice you submitted a request to change your name. Unfortunately you made a typing error - please go back and add }} (just those two characters) after what you typed. I would fix it myself, but that would cause my signature to automatically appear, not yours. Sorry, I know this is a pain! Our templates can be tricky for new editors. —  Scott  •  talk  16:59, 18 February 2014 (UTC)

 * That looks awfully promotional, although it may be that the original article is as well. --j⚛e deckertalk 18:43, 3 March 2014 (UTC)
