User talk:BridgeDigitalInc

October 2021
Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "BridgeDigitalInc", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it implies that this account is operated by a company; user accounts are for one person only. Furthermore, if you are being paid for your editing, you must disclose it per WP:PAID. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Please review the username policy linked above and suggest a new username, and declare all conflicts of interest and paid relationships, if any.   Red Phoenix  talk  20:02, 18 October 2021 (UTC)

I tried to make my username my real name but it was taken :). I just used my company name instead.  I am not being paid to make the change - a relative works at Mary Brown's and she asked if I could help her correct some things that weren't correct. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BridgeDigitalInc (talk • contribs) 21:08, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
 * You could try "atBridgeDigitalInc". However, you should still keep in mind the conflict of interest policy even if you aren't being paid. Editing on behalf of a friend or relative can also be considered a conflict of interest. I'd recommend suggesting any future changes at Talk:Mary Brown's instead of editing the page directly. clpo13(talk) 22:19, 18 October 2021 (UTC)

Sure, I understand how it could be a conflict of interest but the updates I made came from their official website. It's not like it's fluff/marketing materials. It's a logo change, updating the number of franchises and the name of the business. The information on the Wikipedia page was factually incorrect.

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. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid, you must disclose who is paying you to edit. Please also note that you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87". 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. Red Phoenix talk  16:08, 19 October 2021 (UTC)

What I will recommend to you is, should you desire to continue to edit, that you simply start a new account and ensure your new username complies with the policy, linked above. Also, regardless of where it came from, you should abide by WP:COI, noting that nothing stops you from suggesting edits on the article’s talk page even with a COI. I would also take into consideration WP:V and ensure any changes you make are cited to a WP:RS, and carefully consider WP:PRIMARY when using a primary source - it can be acceptable under certain circumstances.
