User talk:Feiwiki

Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that the username you have chosen, "Feiwiki", 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 accounts that are shared. 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 Plain and simple conflict of interest guide, 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. --RexxS (talk) 14:37, 11 April 2013 (UTC)

It appears from your contributions that you are only editing the article International Federation for Equestrian Sports. Please understand that this article, like all others on Wikipedia, is not owned by anyone, rather its content is a result of many editors reaching agreements about what should appear. So far, you have infringed the following community norms for editing: Now, I am told that you have been emailing one of our contributors claiming ownership of this article. That is not the way we communicate on Wikipedia - we use talk pages on Wikipedia for that purpose. If you are simply dissatisfied with the content and want to email someone about it, then an email to OTRS is your best course of action - see Contact us for information.
 * 1) Username policy - "usernames should not be shared between more than one individual, usernames that imply the likelihood of shared use are not permitted";
 * 2) WP:ENGVAR - we do not change from one national variety of English to another without good reason;
 * 3) External links - we do not replace internal links to Wikipedia pages with external links to sites outside of Wikipedia;
 * 4) Verifiability - we do not replace content that is sourced to a reliable source with content that has no source given;
 * 5) WP:PROMO - we don't replace neutrally worded text with phraseology like "... today are the ultimate equestrian experience attracting more than 500,000 on-site spectators and showcasing the world's most exceptional equine athletes ..." - this is a serious encyclopedia, not your PR outlet;
 * 6) Edit warring - you've been told that Baron Max Von Holzing-Bertstett from 1935 to 1936 represented the Third Reich, not modern Germany. Attempting to use the modern flag is an anachronism and not appropriate for an encyclopedia. By ignoring that and simply replacing your preference, you are edit-warring and you need to stop and discuss.

I understand that this is a lot to take in, but if you are interested in contributing to our encyclopedia, I'm afraid that you will have to alter your perception of what it is, and you'll have to fit in with the way that others work here. I hope you find this helpful. --RexxS (talk) 15:06, 11 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Hi, am touching bases here to say that I was the person who got the email but I normally do not reply off-wiki when the discussion is about an article.   I will comment further at Talk:International Federation for Equestrian Sports and perhaps we can come to an understanding.   Montanabw (talk) 15:50, 11 April 2013 (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 does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer instead to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you prefer to change your username rather than create a new account, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. Thank you. Alexf(talk) 17:31, 1 May 2013 (UTC)
