 * I do not belong to any commercial activities that may be beneficial to me personally
 * I am an art curator and a university professor so my only interest is in factual information
 * I understand that I have to be careful about promotional materials. I will.
 * I understand that I must not have a promotional sounding username such as "Chelseahotelblog", which has now been changed. Please note that it was not meant to be a commercial username: Chelsea Hotel is a historic landmark in New York that many scholars have studied and documented.
 * In the future, I will only edit and contribute to art-related pages that fall under my years of expertise. In particular, the page of Bettina Grossman who has passed away requires edits to enhance the page and factualize the biography, which has many errors currently. As someone familiar with her history, I am able to do this. Of course, I will be careful of the mistakes I made in the past, given that it was my first contribution to Wikipedia. I hope you can unblock ASAP
