User talk:HughatMPIWG

Welcome!
Hello, MPIWG, and welcome to Wikipedia!&#32;Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Dagmar Schäfer, which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article.&#32;Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
 * The plain and simple conflict of interest guide
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * Tutorial
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
 * Simplified Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome! --  Deep fried  okra    12:05, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

UNfortunately your user name looks like it's an institution editing. Please select a new username. It could be "{fill in with anything you like)atMPIWG". I would be happy to rename you if you ping me by placing in your request and sign with 4 ~'s. --  Deep  fried  okra    12:09, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Actually, "anything you like" is too broad, as you will see if you look at the response to your post at Changing username/Simple. Putting a personal name in place of "fill in with anything you like" would be OK, if you would like to use that. JBW (talk) Formerly JamesBWatson 14:28, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
