 * Can you explain your relationship to the topic you are writing about? Doc James  (talk · contribs · email) 23:35, 31 May 2016 (UTC)


 * I am a student at UNR who wanted to write about the extension on our campus know at the National Judicial College. It is not affiliated with UNR directly but was granted a lifetime lease on the university campus. We have a JUdical Studies program that requires classes at the NJC and the national council for juvini and family court system. The NJC did not have a wiki page and I thought I could create one and learn something at the same time.

Request for further information relating to unblock request
This is one of several single-purpose accounts which have appeared in recent months to post promotional content on the same subject, and at least two of the accounts have copied content from the same place. Although the blocking administrator mentioned only the copyright issue, there are also the facts that promotional editing is unacceptable, that anyone with a close connection to the subject they are editing about may have a conflict of interest, and that anyone editing as part of work where they are paid must disclose their paid connection. Can you comment on those issues? Also, can you say what connection you have to the accounts Ashley.h.peters and J.e.clover?

 * I do not have any connection with the above mentioned accounts and did not know that this page creation had already been attempted. The a judicial studies student at the university of Nevada reno, I was curious about our connection to the national judicial college. I volunteered with the NJC to manage their website and update their content. I am not paid, I don't do this as a promotional piece. I googled and found it didn't have a wiki page so I thought I could not only learn a ton of information about  the school but also take a stab at creating a wiki page, which I have never done before.


 * On that note, I will never be doing it again. Having been treated so poorly by the admins and with such an overreaction. I will never be using Wikipedia again, nor donating annually. I gave what I thought was a good attempt, but not understanding fully the rules or how to properly use the page (even though I did provide references and had permission from the NJC to use photos and their content that I updated) and was basically thrown in Internet jail for doing so. You could have just take down the page and sent me a message saying I needed to fix it, instead of blocking me entirely within minutes of publishing the page.
 * You would be welcome to contribute on other topics if you paraphrase. Best Doc James  (talk · contribs · email) 11:18, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
