Username concerns
Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. However, I noticed that your username (COPE Ministries) may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it is the name of an organization that you appear to be writing about. 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, or you may simply create a new account and use that for editing. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 01:16, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

Re: How to keep a page about my organization without an Admin deleting it?
I had recently made a Wiki Page for my non profit organization on my other account, SergeantLunsford, but was removed by an admin. When I looked on his talk page, people were complaining about how he was deleting their pages. Is this a delete happy admin, because I am very serious about making a Wiki for my organization and my community.

If you can help me with advice, that would be great! Thanks!

 * First, the deletion was valid: the article is about a non-notable organization. Second, you'll need to return to your other account; I'm blocking the COPE Ministries account for violation of the username policy. —C.Fred (talk) 01:28, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of User:COPE Ministries


A tag has been placed on User:COPE Ministries, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Wuh Wuz  Dat  01:30, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because your username, COPE Ministries, does not meet our username policy. '''Your username is the only reason for this block. You are welcome to choose a new username (see below).''' A username should not be promotional, related to a "real-world" group or organization, misleading, offensive, or disruptive. Also, usernames may not end in the word "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account. You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:
 * Adding on your user talk page. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "E-mail this user" on their talk page.
 * At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
 * 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. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Changing username.
