User name issue
Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Queensland Mental Health", may not comply with our username policy. Please note that you may not use a username that represents the name of a company, group, organization, product, or website. Examples of usernames that are not allowed include "XYZ Company", "MyWidgetsUSA.com", and "Trammel Museum of Art". However, you are invited to use a username that contains such a name if it identifies you personally, such as "Mark at WidgetsUSA", "Jack Smith at the XY Foundation", and "WidgetFan87".

Please also note that Wikipedia does not allow accounts to be shared by multiple people, and that you may not advocate for or promote any company, group, organization, product, or website, regardless of your username. Moreover, I recommend that you read our conflict of interest guideline. If you are a single individual and are willing to contribute to Wikipedia in an unbiased manner, please create a new account or request a username change that complies with our username policy. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you. Jytdog (talk) 13:34, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

Hi -- your single to date was adding a link to Queensland Mental Health to our ECT article and your username makes it clear that you are associated with Queensland Mental Health. I'm giving you notice of our Conflict of Interest guideline and Terms of Use - please also see my note below.

Hello, Queensland Mental Health. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:


 * Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
 * Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).
 * Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies. Note that Wikipedia's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.

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.

Note
You have disclosed your conflict of interest by your username. I want to add that we love experts here - please read WP:EXPERT. I do understand that Queensland Mental Health is a government agency that exists for the public good - but still, Wikipedia is not here to promote the visibility of any organization, be it a company or a government agency.

Please do consider joining WikiProject Medicine - we have reps from other nonprofits and public health agencies working in Project Medicine to improve our coverage of health. who works with Cancer Research UK and who works with Consumer Reports, are both great members of the community, and might be helpful in guiding you, if you are interested in contributing more broadly. Thanks. Jytdog (talk) 13:42, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Hello! Consumer Reports is the partner and United States equivalent of your Australian Choice (Australian consumer organisation). If you want to share health information then I would talk with you by voice or video on how that works in Wikipedia. Message me if you are interested.

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. 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 below this notice. 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 below this notice. Thank you. --Jakob (talk)  aka Jakec  13:49, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
