You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for spamming or advertising. From your contributions, this seems to be your only purpose.

 * Given this comment, this is clearly an account whose purpose in editing is promotion that contravenes Wikipedia's guidelines on spam and conflict of interest. -- Kinu  t/c 20:45, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

A great place to start is that your username violates the policy as accounts are made for individuals, not organizations. Following that, you should review WP:YFA which addresses how to properly start your first article. Regarding advertising, it doesn't have to do with the commercial aspects of the term, but rather the self-promotion elements, which what you are infact doing - promoting your organization. Again, I would suggest you create a new, personal account, and then carefully review WP:YFA, take several days creating the content before posting it, being sure to follow those guidelines. That should help put you on the path to success. Tiggerjay (talk) 18:54, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
