Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that the username you have chosen, "Faculty Mechanical Engineering", seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of something other than yourself. Please note that you may not edit on behalf of a company, group, institution, product, or website, and Wikipedia does not allow usernames that are promotional or have the appearance of shared use. If you are willing to use a personal account, please take a moment to create a new account or request a username change that represents only yourself as an individual. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and remember that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you. Ariconte (talk) 08:47, 10 December 2012 (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 moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If your username doesn't represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. If you prefer to be unblocked for the purpose of changing your username to a username which complies with our username policy, so that your contributions with this username are recorded as contributions of your new username and rather than creating a new account, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice instead. Thank you. Alexf(talk) 19:25, 13 December 2012 (UTC)


 * The proposed username remains unacceptable, and in any case you won't be unblocked so long as you keep sharing one account. In addition, your instructor should have contacted us first rather than throwing you into shark-infested waters. — Jeremy  v^_^v  Bori! 01:42, 17 December 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for your feedback. So, what should we do now? We just need our instructors to contact you first? Then after that can you unblock our page?
 * I will post at WP:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents in order to ask for some help from administrators. I can't guarantee anything, but if they show up here and give you advice, I would consider giving an ear to what they say. — Jeremy  v^_^v  Bori! 01:52, 17 December 2012 (UTC)
 * As per our conflict of interest policy, you shouldnt be writing about any organization that can require you to do so. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom  02:00, 17 December 2012 (UTC)

So does it mean i can't create a wikipedia page about one of the university faculty? because i do some research on wikipedia. there's other faculties on this university create their own wikipedia page.
 * if they did, they shouldn't have. can you point the articles out so they can be edited, reviewed, evaluated? -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom  02:34, 17 December 2012 (UTC)

http://ms.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fakulti_Kejuruteraan_Awam_(FKA) This is faculty of civil engineering in my university. but this is in malay.
 * Each language Wikipedia is controlled and edited by the users of that language and I have enough stuff on my plate at English wikipedia. You will need to let the Malay wikipedia know about that issue. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom  03:40, 17 December 2012 (UTC)

moving forward
I am not an admin, so I cannot unblock or rename this account, but here is my take: 1) Since it is a group account, it is unlikely that it will be unblocked or renamed.

2) Each student involved should set up their own personal account, being sure to follow the user name rules; which includes being careful not to use a name that seems to promote any entity or group (such as the University) (see particularly the section WP:CORPNAME)

3) select a topic for which you do not have an inherent conflict of interest, but perhaps have access to WP:Reliable sources that other general editors may not have. The Wikiproject on Engineering has identified a number of articles that are important need a lot of work and  (scroll down to the bottom of the pages to find the table with the articles). They also have had a request for History of mechanical engineering if you want to start from scratch.

4) Read carefully our basic policies, starting with the everything you need to know and then WP:V, WP:RS, WP:OR and WP:NPOV. --  TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom  03:40, 17 December 2012 (UTC)


 * .... and most especially WP:COI. Johnbod (talk) 03:59, 17 December 2012 (UTC)

I suggest admin can remove this page. Thank you for everyone advice.

Please ask your instructor
...to look at School and university projects. JohnCD (talk) 10:26, 17 December 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Faculty Mechanical Engineering/sandbox


A tag has been placed on User:Faculty Mechanical Engineering/sandbox requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://web1.fkm.utm.my/?id=aboutus&pid=587. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

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 "Click here to 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 removed 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. Whpq (talk) 03:36, 20 November 2014 (UTC)
