User talk:Gertrude11

June 2011
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the username you have chosen (Lloydkleincouturehouse) seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of a group, company or website.

There are two issues with this :
 * 1) It is possible that you have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, you must exercise great caution when editing on topics related to your organization.
 * 2) Your account cannot represent a group of people. You may wish to create a new account with a username that represents only you. Alternatively, you may consider changing your username to avoid giving the impression that your personal account is being used for promotional purposes.

Regardless of whether you change your name or create a new account, you are not exempted from the guidelines concerning editing where you have a conflict of interest. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you.

Conflict of interest problems
Writing about yourself or the organization you work for is highly problematic. You note in your request for username change that you want to write a neutral article. The reality is that it is exceptionally difficult for a person with your perspective to write a neutral article. You are (and I mean this without any insult whatsoever) inherently biased. Almost invariably, such articles end up reading like advertising copy. The article you are working on is no exception. For example, you write "Today, Lloyd Klein is the go to House of Couture for ..." That is not a neutral statement. Citable, yes. Neutral, no.

If your organization is truly notable, somebody will eventually get around to writing an article about it. We already have quite a range of designer articles here, and I'm sure there will be plenty more. Please understand; Wikipedia is not a medium for advertising. The presence of lack thereof of an article on your company is of no matter to us. Our concerns are to write a neutral, verifiable encyclopedia. I strongly urge you to reconsider you work here on this article, and instead follow the instructions at Requested articles. Thank you, --Hammersoft (talk) 19:23, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
 * By the way, there already is an article. Lloyd Klein. --Hammersoft (talk) 20:13, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
