User talk:National Farmers' Federation

Wikipedia policies
You should acquaint yourself with the information on page Conflict of interest, which discusses the situation where one edits articles about one's own organization. This is difficult territory, with many things that can go wrong. Please at least scan over the information, as then you will be better equipped for the ensuing discussions with concerned editors. No one will claim that you are intentionally doing something wrong, but there is a long history here of people who have done much wrong, and so there is a very great concern about conflict of interest editing. Good luck. Shenme (talk) 05:21, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
 * I've rewritten the new material at National Farmers' Federation, which should resolve any WP:COI issues. Also the original material included a significant amount of text obviously copied verbatim from http://www.nff.org.au/read/5166/prime-minister-turnbull-announces-new-initiatives.html, which is a copyright violation and thus not allowed.

 * Another significant concern is the username "National Farmers' Federation", which is clearly contrary to the policy described at WP:GROUPNAME. I strongly recommend that you change your user name so that it represents an individual, rather than a group. Although you appear to be editing in good faith, keeping this username is likely to cause problems. You can change your username at Special:GlobalRenameRequest.
