User talk:MaidRite

February 2012
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the username you have chosen (MaidRite) seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of a group, company or website.

There are two issues with this :
 * 1) It is possible that you 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 or adding links to its website.
 * 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 guidelines concerning 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. The article in question is Maid-Rite. Thank you.

This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because your username, MaidRite, Name resembles that of a corporation. You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:
 * Adding on your user talk page. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "E-mail this user" on their talk page.
 * At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
 * Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Changing username.

If you feel that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. Rklawton (talk) 03:22, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi, I noticed your photo caption reading "Maid-Rite sandwich, seasoned to perfection." Do you REALLY consider this to be an encyclopedic caption? Do you REALLY think hundreds of thousands of editors have volunteered their time to create over 3,000,000 English language articles so you can just drop by and turn the Maid-Rite article into an advertisement? Please read up on our polices and guidelines before editing an article. I recommend starting with the Conflict of Interest guideline - as it appears that this may also be a problem. There's a legion of public relations professionals now wincing at your ham-handedness. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. If you have any editing ideas for this article, I recommend you make them on the article's talk page rather than edit the article directly. Rklawton (talk) 03:29, 12 February 2012 (UTC)
