Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that the username you have chosen, "Orca Health", seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of something other than yourself. Please note that you may not edit on behalf of a company, group, institution, product, or website which relates to the entity in question, and Wikipedia does not allow usernames that are promotional or accounts that are shared. If you are willing to use a personal account, please take a moment to create a new account or request a username change that represents only yourself as an individual. You should also read our Conflict of interest guideline and Plain and simple conflict of interest guide, and remember that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you.

 * I am just trying to make a Wikipedia page for my work. Orca Health. How would I go about doing that?
 * You really can't. Wikipedia's conflict of interest guideline discourages editors from creating or editing articles on subjects they are closely linked with. If it is done, it must be done very cautiously to avoid bias. Also, Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, a web host, or a place to get free publicity. It's an encyclopedia, and in order to ensure the highest quality, only subjects that are considered notable are allowed to have articles. What makes a topic notable can be found here. Also, I would suggest reading your warning carefully- the links and information there can also be helpful in your situation. If it turns out that Wikipedia is not the appropriate place for what you are trying to do, this may help you find a place that is appropriate.
 * Also, please sign and indent your posts. You sign with four tildes(~)- this key is normally to the left of your '1' key. You can also click the four tildes right below the edit window. You indent by placing colons at the beginning of your post. In replies, type in one more colon than the post above you. So if you see that the post above you begins with one colon, you start yours with two.
 * Finally, please remember that no matter what you choose to do here on Wikipedia, you are not allowed to have a username that implies shared use. Your warning has more information on what you can do about this.
 * With all of that said, good luck, and have a good time editing Wikipedia! If you need any help, you can always ask on my talk page, or place the template helpme on this page,and someone will help you shortly. NealCruco (talk) 00:52, 31 August 2013 (UTC)
