User talk:Queensland Museum

Welcome!
Hello, Queensland Museum, and welcome to Wikipedia!&#32;Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article.&#32;Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms our use and policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
 * The plain and simple conflict of interest guide
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * Tutorial
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
 * Simplified Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome! JarrahTree 01:10, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

Phew
Normally you (or whoever started editing under this name) should have been blocked in 2017 over editing.

Institutions (and people working in them) are strongly advised to understand the principles of Wikipedia.

WP:NOT and WP:ABOUT are always good starts.

The issue with having the same user name as the article you are editing is a problem with WP:USERNAME and WP:COI

It would be much appreciated if you took the time to contact the very experienced and knowledgable editor User:Kerry Raymond who is in Brisbane and can help you on the matters of being blocked and losing the right to edit from the username.

Please understand that you may find yourself blocked. Have no fear, Kerry will help you if you take the trouble to contact. Thanks JarrahTree 01:10, 18 September 2018 (UTC)


 * It's really quire simple-- select a user name that represents you and you alone as a person. (Each person needs their own.) Let us know what name you choose, and I or another renamer can move you to that name. Sorry for the inconvenience.-- Dloh cier ekim  (talk) 04:44, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

September 2018
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 or request a change of username. It also appears that your account is intended to be used for the purpose of telling the world about an organization, person or cause that you consider worthwhile. Unfortunately, many good causes are not sufficiently notable for their own Wikipedia article, and all users are discouraged from editing in any area where they have an inherent conflict of interest. You may wish to consider one of these alternative outlets. If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page. 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 at the bottom of your talk page. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. Thank you. -- Dloh cier ekim  (talk) 04:41, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
