Conflict of interest policy
The Log Cabin Republicans article is not "your" article. It belongs to Wikipedia. Please see Wikipedia policy on Conflict of Interest. Joja lozzo  18:14, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

March 2011
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Log Cabin Republicans. When removing content, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the content has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. I would also encourage you to review WP:COI to avoid potential policy violations. Thank you. -- Doniago (talk) 16:37, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

This is your last warning; the next time you remove or blank page content or templates from Wikipedia, as you did at Log Cabin Republicans, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Joja lozzo  18:21, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

I understand why you're warning me, but it would appear that none of the administrators bother to read the reasons as to why I have edited/ removed the section. I am an employee of the Log Cabin Republicans National organization, and the information in the section entitled "schism" is not accurate, and further it reflects an internal matter, which does not need to be posted here, particularly with flawed and inaccurate information. I have been directed by my supervisors to remove that section. While I respect that this page is the property of WikiMedia, I think that WikiMedia and their administrators need to respect the organizations whom they post information about. I respectfully ask that you remove the section entitled "schism," particularly since it does not challenge the integrity of the page. Perhaps the administrators who are not familiar with the organization the page is written about, should not have the sole discretion as to the information that is posted on the page.

 * Unfortunately, we have no way to verify your identify, and cannot simply accept a claim that you are who you claim to be. If you legtimiately represent your organization and they have concerns, there are channels for addressing those. See here. Short of the resolution means provided there, your best option is to provide reliably sourced information disproving what is currently in the article. Doniago (talk) 19:39, 1 April 2011 (UTC)


 * I suggest you start a discussion about the schism section on the talk page of the article. Your effectiveness in this project will increase a great deal once you learn how it works. Making demands and deleting content is unlikely to achieve much except to get yourself blocked from editing. Please refer to the links we provided in the welcome message to learn more about the project. Joja  lozzo  19:48, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

blocked
Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended or used for publicity and/or promotional purposes. Please read the following carefully.

Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, celebrity or other well-known individual, or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements, and using Wikipedia for promotion. Wikipedia has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but such groups are generally discouraged from using Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.

Probably not. See WP:FAQ/Organizations for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, or organization. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.
 * Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?

You are still welcome to write about something other than your company or organization. If you do intend to make useful contributions on some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:
 * What can I do now?


 * Add the text on your user talk page.
 * Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy.
 * Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, please see how to appeal a block. Jayron  32  20:00, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
