Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=607096720 your edit] to General Practice Registrars Australia Ltd. may have broken the syntax by modifying 9 ""s and 1 "[]"s. If you have, don't worry: just [ edit the page] again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?action=edit&preload=User:A930913/BBpreload&editintro=User:A930913/BBeditintro&minor=&title=User_talk:A930913&preloadtitle=BracketBot%20–%20&section=new my operator's talk page]. It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, BracketBot (talk) 00:34, 5 May 2014 (UTC)

Moving pages
Please don't move your user talk page, as it is essential that a record be kept of messages posted here. I have moved this page back here, but it took some searching to find where it had gone to, after a succession of moves. Also, moving any kind of page more than once can make it very difficult to trace the history of editing of the page, so it is best to minimise moves.

Conflict of interest, username, and promotion
If you have a close personal connection to subjects you are writing about, it may be difficult to stand back and see them from an objective perspective, as you need to do in order to write from a neutral point of view. Wikipedia's conflict of interest guideline strongly discourages us from writing on such subjects where we have a close personal connection. Also, your username suggests that this account represents an organisation, rather than an individual person, which is against Wikipedia policy, and you should not continue to edit under this name. If you do not wish to abandon the account, which would mean losing the record of your connection to the edits you have already made, you may request a change of username: see Changing username on how to do so. Finally, please be aware that, no matter what account you use, editing for the purpose of promoting anything is unacceptable, and can lead to being blocked from editing. Your editing so far looks distinctly promotional, so you need to reconsider how you edit. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 08:45, 7 May 2014 (UTC)

Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended for publicity and/or promotional purposes. If you intend to edit constructively in other topic areas, you may be granted the right to continue under a change of username. Please read the following carefully.

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, website or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements and using Wikipedia for promotion. Wikipedia has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but such groups are generally discouraged from using Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.
 * Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Probably not, although if you can demonstrate a pattern of future editing in strict accordance with our neutral point of view policy, you may be granted this right. See Wikipedia's FAQ for Organizations for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, organization, or clients. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit Wikipedia again.
 * Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?


 * What can I do now?

If you have no interest in writing about some other topic than your organization, group, company, or product, you may consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.

If you want corrections and improvements to be made, or concerns to be considered, we will always take seriously reports about possible unlawful content, defamation, minors at risk, copyright violation, and privacy breach.  However any other requests must meet our content policies - we won't consider requests if not . As a simple guide, changes of a promotional nature are almost always refused, but genuine errors, omissions, unbalanced and non-neutral coverage, and outdated facts may sometimes be accepted if other editors agree with you.

If you do intend to make useful contributions here about some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:


 * Add the text on your user talk page.
 * Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy.
 * Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text below, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Yunshui 雲 水 10:40, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
