User talk:McGrath Foundation

Username
Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia! I'm writing for two reasons. Firstly while your edits to the McGrath Foundation article are well intentioned, editing articles about your own organization is severely frowned upon because it is considered a conflict of interest. You may want to see our policy on conflicts of interest and autobiographies. Secondly, our username policy forbids the use of shared accounts and accounts that are simply the name of an organization.

If you would like to keep editing (and I hope you do), you can change your username by filling out this form or if there are many of you at the foundation who want to edit, you can create an account. Just remember not to violate the policy on conflicts of interest when editing McGrath Foundation-related articles.

If you have questions, feel free to leave a message on my talk page. Wugapodes [thɔk] [ˈkan.ˌʧɻɪbz] 10:18, 1 January 2017 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which 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 or request a change of username. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. 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. Thank you. -- samtar talk or stalk 12:56, 1 January 2017 (UTC)
