User talk:Leeds Festival Fringe

The city of Leeds is set to host a Leeds Festival Fringe event in August to coincide with Leeds 2010.

While Reading Festival has had a fringe event for a number of years, the same has not been true of its northern counterpart Leeds (although we did operate the Unsigned / BBC Introducing Stage for a couple of years before they eventually caught on).

Well times have changed as the Leeds Festival Fringe 2010 event has been revealed.

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

There are two issues with this :
 * 1) You may 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 guideline to avoid 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.
