User talk:FFLAHISTORY

Hello, FFLAHISTORY, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Our intro page provides helpful information for new users—please check it out! If you need help, visit Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place  on this page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Happy editing!

I notice that you are the historian for the Forest Fire Lookout Association. There are two things that I want to make sure you know. One is that Wikipedia has a strong guideline against editing articles where you may have a conflict of interest, such as for an organization that you are personally involved with. Please keep that in mind as you edit!

The other is that Wikipedia has a policy against usernames that are the same as the name of an organization -- it is important on Wikipedia to know that a user account represents a person and not an organization. I recommend that you create a new account, under your real name or a personal nickname, and not continue to use this one to edit Wikipedia.

Again, thanks for your contributions! --Tim Pierce (talk) 00:40, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
