User talk:Institut Kunstgeschichte

May 2020
Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which 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 or request a change of username. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid, you must disclose who is paying you to edit. If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page. You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer 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 would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 11:50, 5 May 2020 (UTC)

I am aware that on the German Wikipedia, organization names as usernames are not only permitted but encouraged, however they are not allowed on the English Wikipedia, nor do we allow the sharing of accounts(such as passing one to a successor to your position or a colleague). Each username must indicate that a specific individual is exclusively operating the account. You don't need to use your real name. If you use this account on the German Wikipedia and don't wish to change its username, you may create a new account for yourself as an individual here. If you intend to edit about anything related to your institute, you need to read about conflict of interest. 331dot (talk) 11:53, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
