Hi, welcome to Wikipedia! Please be aware that according to Wikipedia guidelines "Accounts that purport to represent an entire group or company are not permitted" (see WP:CORPNAME) and user accounts have to represent individuals (see WP:NOSHARE). You're thus open to this account being blocked. Members of the "team" should instead create individual accounts and reveal their association with USANA on their userpages. The problem with "official" accounts is there's no real way to tell if they're authentic or not, at least not without Wikipedia devoting a deal of resources to it. As a group of volunteers, that alas is not going to happen! --Icerat (talk) 13:06, 3 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Agreed - See WP:Changing_username on how to get your username changed to reflect who will be using this account. If you have other PR staff who will be making WP updates or participating in discussion, they will need their own account. Leef5 (talk) 13:42, 3 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you! We have made these changes. We appreciate the help, as we are here to follow Wikipedia guidelines. LisaKuftinec (talk) 16:35, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
