File permission problem with File:RachelReneeRussell.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:RachelReneeRussell.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to , stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to .

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log]. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fiftytwo thirty (talk) 22:25, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

Cut 'n paste
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give Kevin Saunders a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you. mabdul 21:51, 2 September 2011 (UTC)

Blocked
Your account has been blocked indefinitely, as it appears to be a "role account" for http://www.twfh.com. Accounts must be operated by individuals, not on behalf of companies. Furthermore, it seems you are also using User:TWFH to edit, which is a violation of our policy on the use of multiple accounts. Finally, advertising is not permitted on Wikipedia. As it seems the primary purpose of your company is advertising or paid editing, this presents a severe conflict of interest with regard to Wikipedia's policies and goals. You may appeal this block by posting the template  below this message, replacing "your reason here" with your reasons why you should be unblocked. You may wish to read this guide first before appealing. Hers fold  (t/a/c) 00:09, 29 November 2011 (UTC)

How do you choose the subjects that you write about? Are you being employed as a public relations person, for example, or editing on behalf of people who ask you to help them improve their companies' presence on Wikipedia? -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 20:42, 27 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Hi FisherQueen, I am employed to post neutral articles for clients. I understand that people with potential COIs Conflict_of_interest must be particularly careful about staying neutral in their edits. It is not my intention to hinder Wiki's mission to be a neutral reference, but to provide quality content to Wiki about subjects that may not have adequate coverage. I have worked hard to ensure that all of my work is carefully cited, and that I only include information that is completely unbiased. If I have posted an article -- or any part of an article -- that does not meet Wiki guidelines, I would very much appreciate any advice you can give me regarding how to avoid such an action in the future.  Any guidance you can give me would be greatly appreciated.TWFHCOM (talk) 19:41, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I looked at WP:COI, and it seems to say that users are strongly discouraged from ever editing in subjects where they have a financial interest. You seem to be saying that you don't have any plans to ever make any other kind of edit.  I'm hesitant to unblock you, but I'm going to leave your request open, because I remember there was some controversy a few years ago about editing-for-money, and I can't remember what the consensus on the subject was- I'm hoping that some other reviewing admin will. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 02:04, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I recall that at least one such user was blocked from editing by Jimbo Wales himself. (I would recommend you to contact the Arbitration Committee for further instructions.) - Mike Rosoft (talk) 11:41, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you.


 * One key bit that you've overlooked is the blocking policy. In particular, administrators are not required to unblock you until they are satisfied that you will edit within policy. Your previous edits (seen as non-neutral by some), your use of multiple accounts, and the username itself are all factors that give pause. Your responses here have not convinced admins that you will edit within policy if unblocked. Clearly you have some idea of what you plan to edit when unblocked. So let's have it - post a proposed revision or set of revisions to a particular article, showing how you'd edit that article neutrally if you were able. Your promises have so far been unconvincing - perhaps actually showcasing your edits would work better. Either way, don't take this all personally - we have lots and lots of editors who break the rules through a lack of knowledge rather than through malice, and blocking is simply how we prevent them from causing harm. Many users, once they learn how, are unblocked and edit productively. The very dishonestly we see from many editors and vandals is precisely why admins are hesitant to unblock. Showing them that your edits are sound is a great first step around that. Good luck. UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 19:39, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I really appreciate this advice. How do I go about posting a revision when I'm blocked? Can I do it on my user page? Any particular article I should use? Also, if editors could point out what they thought was not neutral about my other articles, that would help a lot. Is it because I used company websites as a source? I thought that was ok as long as I used other sources as well. Thanks for any help. TWFHCOM (talk) 15:05, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm afraid I don't support an unblock. I am having trouble seeing the difference between 'being paid by a company to write about that company in a way that company hopes will positively influence readers' and 'advertising,' no matter how it's phrased.  When company buys a billboard that simply says, "McDonalds next exit," the fact that it is factually true doesn't make it not advertising. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 23:00, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * The difference is that one is a motivation, the other is a result. A person can be paid to edit an article and yet write good prose that follows our guidelines and policies, we don't usually block people until they actually start to break our policies and guidelines. We don't have any rule against paid editing, people have made attempts to do so, see Paid editing, but all proposed guidelines and policies have failed. There is one active proposal that has been stalled for months. The community just doesn't seem to consider it as big of a deal as Jimbo does.


 * Having said that, I hesitate to unblock in this particular case. due to what has actually been advertising at the now-deleted Kaseya article. --  At am a  頭 00:58, 21 January 2012 (UTC)

Unblock
User:TWFHCOM has contacted the Arbitration Committee by email to appeal the block. After review, it has been decided to unblock on three conditions:
 * 1) That User:TWFHCOM only edits from one account
 * 2) That User:TWFHCOM changes their username; making the change request as soon as possible, and making no other edits to Wikipedia other than to make the name change request or to their own talkpage until the name has been changed
 * 3) That User:TWFHCOM takes responsibility for ensuring that their edits are neutral, non-promotional, and comply with Wikipedia guidelines.
