User talk:London Resilience Team

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that 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. It also appears that your account is intended to be used for the purpose of telling the world about an organization, person or cause that you consider worthwhile. Unfortunately, many good causes are not sufficiently notable for their own Wikipedia article, and all users are discouraged from editing in any area where they have an inherent conflict of interest. You may wish to consider one of these alternative outlets. If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. 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 below this notice. Thank you. -- Orange Mike &#124;  Talk  12:45, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

No problem with the name. We just want to know your response to the following: Here are a few key questions:
 * Do you understand that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and not a business directory?
 * Do you understand conflict of interest?
 * Do you understand that to be considered for an encyclopedia article, the subject must be notable?

You are currently blocked because your username appears directly related to a company, group or product that you have been promoting, contrary to the username policy. Changing the username will not allow you to violate the 3 important principles above. Daniel Case (talk) 20:03, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

Hi Dan, yes, that's all understood. I'm not being paid or otherwise compensated for any wikipedia edits. I do not plan to create any new pages but to correct errors or outdated information on existing pages as a subject-matter expert - my intention is to make the Wikipedia encylopedia more accurate and notable through non-controversial edits and provision of links to source material. Hope that's ok? M


 * Sounds good to me (though be wary of adding links to anything that you're affiliated with). I've removed the block; you'll need to go to WP:CHU and follow the instructions there to change your username. Yunshui 雲 水 10:04, 18 August 2014 (UTC)
