Edits to Royal Asiatic Society Hong Kong Branch
Based upon your username, it seems likely you are associated with the Society.

Please read: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Conflict_of_interest

Editors with a conflict of interest should be proposing changes on the article talk page, not directly editing the article.

In addition, you should not be copying material from a copyrighted site even if you are the original author of that material. If that turns out to be the case there are processes for using such material. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Donating_copyrighted_materials

While it is quite common to arrange for a free license for images, it is much rarer that such an approach is appropriate for text as it is almost always better to rewrite. In many cases, material written elsewhere is not written in a style appropriate for an encyclopedia. Underwaterbuffalo (talk) 10:35, 10 March 2020 (UTC)

Your username
Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "RASHKB", 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, service, or website. Examples of usernames that are not allowed include "XYZ Company", "MyWidgetsUSA.com", and "Foobar Museum of Art". However, you are permitted to use a username that contains such a name if it identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87".

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, service, or website, regardless of your username. Please also read our paid editing policy and our conflict of interest guideline. If you are a single individual and are willing to contribute to Wikipedia in an unbiased manner, please request a change of username, by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, choosing a username 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. N.J.A.  &#124; talk  11:40, 10 March 2020 (UTC)

There have been two problems with this account: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group or a web site, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing. Additionally, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for your contributions to Wikipedia, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

If you intend to make useful contributions other than promoting your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In that reason, you must:
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block. To do so, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the text at the bottom of your talk page, replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason for thinking that the block was an error, and publish the page.
