Conflict of interest
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the username you have chosen seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of a group, company or website.

There are two issues with this :
 * 1) You may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, you must exercise great caution when editing on topics related to your organization.
 * 2) Your account cannot represent a group of people. You may wish to create a new account with a username that represents only you. Alternatively, you may consider changing your username to avoid giving the impression that your personal account is being used for promotional purposes.

Regardless of whether you change your name or create a new account, you are not exempted from the guideline to avoid editing where you have a conflict of interest. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations.

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from User:Enthone, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 19:47, 14 July 2010 (UTC) Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a few moments to create a new account with a username that represents only you. If your username doesn't represent a group, organization or website, you may ask for a review of this username block by adding below this notice the text. Thank you.

Logic behind the block?
Thanks

Here's a few key questions: You are currently blocked because your username appears directly related to a subject that you are trying to create an article about, contrary to the username policy. Changing the username will not allow you to break the 3 important questions above. ( talk→  BWilkins   ←track ) 14:29, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Do you understand that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and not a business directory?
 * Do you understand conflict of interest?
 * Do you understand that to be considered for an encylopedia article, the subject must be considered to be notable?

Yes I understand the three and here are my responses
Here is my case once again in reference to the questions posted.

Yes. When the history of a company is that, history, then it is no longer merely a directory but rather explaining a business and it's place in history. I believe that enthone provides significant history in it's relationship with Cookson, which as I mentioned earlier is a part of the wikipedia and references are available. The page was also terminated before I was able to finish with the writing, references, and historical facts. It was a simple user page not even set live to the wikipedia and from my reading this was a sandbox of sorts to get the article polished first. IMO I wasn't given this opportunity.
 * Do you understand that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and not a business directory?

Yes. I understand the name being similar may represent a COI however the information provided was factual and what is fact is fact regardless of who is writing it. In this case it makes even more sense because the factual information is gathered from the source, hard numbers, facts, and figures that are printed. As with all of wikipedia if anyone wants to edit they are free to do so.
 * Do you understand conflict of interest?

Yes. I believe that enthone deserves a article because of it's history with Cookson Group. Being bought, sold, and spun off being one such notable event.
 * Do you understand that to be considered for an encylopedia article, the subject must be considered to be notable?

Thanks
