Speedy deletion nomination of HOUSE OF EUROPEAN HISTORY


A tag has been placed on HOUSE OF EUROPEAN HISTORY, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.  DGG ( talk ) 07:49, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

Username
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the username you have chosen (Policyteam) seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of a group, company or website.

There are two issues with this :
 * 1) It is possible that you have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, you must exercise great caution when editing on topics related to your organization or adding links to its website.
 * 2) Your account cannot represent a group of people. You may wish to create a new account with a username that represents only you. Alternatively, you may consider changing your username to avoid giving the impression that your personal account is being used for promotional purposes.

Regardless of whether you change your name or create a new account, you are not exempted from the guidelines concerning editing where you have a conflict of interest. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you.

 * Comments you made at Talk:House of european history indicate that you are editing on behalf of the European Parliament. This is not allowed -- editors at Wikipedia must represent individuals, not organizations.  WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 15:04, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that 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 you. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline. If your username doesn't represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. Thank you. Danger (talk) 02:04, 12 October 2011 (UTC)

unblock

 * I'd just like to point out that the other account was created after this account was told to "please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only you" so there was no block evasion. Beeblebrox (talk) 16:41, 12 October 2011 (UTC)

delete contribution
I think we misunderstood the use of wikipedia in this case. Would it be possible for you to remove all my contributions and to delete this account please?
 * I'm afraid we cannot delete accounts. If more than one person has had access to this one, I would recommend scrambling the password, although, as it's blocked, it doesn't make all that much difference. As to the article, it has been edited by other accounts so the 'one user request' category doesn't apply. The article is a useful addition to the encyclopaedia, and you are welcome to keep an eye on it - so long as you remember WP:OWN and that the neutrality has to be maintained, meaning that a properly referenced 'controversy' or 'disaster' or scandal cannot be removed without proper discussion. If you do come up with things for it, I'd suggest contacting User:WikiDan61 or one of the admins involved, as WP:COI conflict of interest applies. I'm not going to do anything about your own name account so long as you seem to be understanding our policies and procedures, and so long as this one remains blocked. It is quite often that people mistake our function, and mistake freedom to edit for 'anything goes'. There are quite a few cases where this is working well - inside information can be valuable so long as it is neutrally worded and properly referenced WP:RS. You might find other areas of interest to you to edit - it is catching... I signed up to make one edit (removing some nonsense) and have ended up as an administrator.

change username account
Thank you for your feedback. Would it be possible to change my username account for a different name like "ScottyDan" for example?
 * It would, but probably with restrictions about editing this article. Or you could use the mwarasin account - you can't have two (except under certain circumstances). If that isn't you, it needs to be blocked as an impersonation. Peridon (talk) 13:53, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I would need these two usernames Policyteam and mwarasin to be changed for any other name, it is quiet important. Is there a way to do this?
 * Please sign with ~ on talk pages - even if it's yours... You can apply for mwarasin to be changed at Changing username (use 'Simple'), but as it's not done anything much, according to the policy it's better to create a new one. If you want it to be changed for anonymity, then follow the procedure at that link. This one can remain blocked, unless there is a good reason for a change of name. It could be unblocked briefly for that purpose. One or the other should be out of action permanently. Peridon (talk) 14:40, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
