User talk:Redron85


 * Don't worry; there isn't. Jackmcbarn (talk) 21:40, 12 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks Jackmcbarn, so how do I officially change the username? I made an edit to the page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voluntary_Protection_Programs_Participants'_Association but the edit shows under VPPPA and also my username still shows VPPPA. Let me know I need to make this change or this change syncs up soon. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by VPPPA (talk • contribs) 15:05, 14 November 2014‎ (UTC)
 * Go to WP:CHU and follow the directions there. Also, if you plan to continue editing that article, make sure you pay close attention to WP:PSCOI, because if your edits seem overly promotional, another administrator will likely re-block you. Jackmcbarn (talk) 15:07, 14 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks Jackmcbarn. Sorry to be a pain, but I'm totally lost on how to actually change it. I'm not seeing clear instructions at WP:CHU. I want to make sure we are in compliance before making another edit. Where do I actually go and what is the actual statement or code I need state so that the username shows as Redron85?
 * There's very clear instructions at Changing username/Simple. After you follow them, someone will rename your account shortly.
 * Thanks Jackmcbarn. I've put in the request and will check to make sure the change takes place. Thanks for your help

Conflict of interest
If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
 * 2) participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam);
 * and you must always:
 * 1) avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.
