User talk:Maytag Dairy Farms

Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first pages you edited on Wikipedia, Maytag Dairy Farms, appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that page.

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, club, organization, company, or website – I have blocked this account. Please take a moment to either create a new account, or request a change of username of your current account here. The new username must represent only yourself as an individual and comply with Wikipedia's username policy. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid, you must disclose who is paying you to edit. Please also note that you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87". If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page. 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   at the bottom of your talk page. 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. Thank you. -- Deep fried okra ( talk ) 20:20, 20 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Thanks, I'll get this fixed. Maytag Dairy Farms (talk) 20:24, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi Deepfriedokra - I'd just like to change the user name to my personal name; but not seeing where I can enter the at the bottom of this page.
 * Can you give me some guidance here? Maytag Dairy Farms (talk) 20:34, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Sure. I can rename you. The user name should clearly be a individual person. Not a role or function. Not a mere number.  "Because Wikipedia's policy is that usernames should not be shared between more than one individual, the following types of usernames are not permitted because they imply shared use:
 * Usernames that are simply names of companies or groups are not permitted (these also fall under Promotional usernames).
 * Personal usernames that imply shared access, such as "Jack and Jill", are not permitted.
 * Usernames that are names of posts within organizations, such as "Secretary of the XY Foundation", are not permitted, as such a post may be held by different persons at different times.
 * "*However, usernames are acceptable if they contain a company or group name but are clearly intended to denote an individual person, such as "Mark at WidgetsUSA", "Jack Smith at the XY Foundation", "WidgetFan87", etc. Hope that helps.  -- Deep fried okra  ( talk ) 21:26, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

Content from subject's web site.
I'm afraid there three problems with that. Wikipedia cannot use content copyrighted elsewhere. Company websites are usually promotional by nature. Content should be cited to reliable sources unconnected with the subject. Thanks.
