However, a username that contains the name of a organization and also identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87" is allowed, but not "SEO Manager at XYZ Company". Among others, the guidance on conflict of interest and the policy of paid-contribution disclosure are relevant.You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our username policy guidelines and create the account yourself.

 * At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a change of name request.

Future For Nature (talk) 13:35, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

Welcome!
Hello, Future For Nature, and welcome to Wikipedia!&#32;Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article.&#32;Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
 * Best practices for editors with close associations
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * Tutorial
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
 * Simplified Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome!

 * I am looking for a way to translate the Dutch Wikipedia page about Future For Nature to English, but wasn't able to do this with the content translation tool. However, creating a new English page doens't seem to be the right way either. I aimed to write the page objectively and only used information from the existing Dutch Wikipedia page, or specific facts (such as who won the award and were guests of honour at events). How can I fix the page and make sure it's up to code? I was looking into adding a COI line, would that be an option?

 * Each language version of Wikipedia is a separate project, with their own editors and policies. What is acceptable on one version is not necessarily acceptable on another. Any article here about your organization must not just document its existence and tell what it does- it must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about the organization, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable organization. We don't want to know what the organization says about itself- such as what it considers to be its own history, or mere descriptions of its personnel- we're primarily interested in what others completely unconnected with the organization choose on their own to say about it, especially with regards to its significance and influence(not just what it does).  You may find reading Your First Article helpful.  I'll leave your help request open as I know little about translations. 331dot (talk) 14:48, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
 * You cannot create directly in mainspace because the software doesn't allow it and you must go through WP:AFC and as per policy, you must also do this given your WP:COI. PRAXIDICAE🌈 16:29, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Future For Nature


A tag has been placed on Draft:Future For Nature, 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, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. BangJan1999 13:38, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
