 * Might be better if you suggested a new name (put it in instead of 'your new username here', and tell us what you're thinking of editing after five years away...). That bit's not compulsory at this stage, but usually helps. Peridon (talk) 17:54, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

I manage content for Snap Surveys, Ltd. There was presiously a Wikipedia page describing our business. I understand that we can not have a user name that is direct relation to our business name. I would like to make this wikipage 'live' again with information about Snap Surveys (similar to pages like ConfirmIt or Qualtrics) to inform Wikipedia searchers of other available survey software solutions.Snapsurveys (talk) 19:27, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

Here's a few key questions: You are currently blocked because your username appears directly related to a subject that you are trying to create an article about, contrary to the username policy. Changing the username will not allow you to break the 3 important questions above.--Anthony Bradbury"talk" 21:01, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

Do you understand that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and not a business directory?
 * Answer: Yes. I understand that Wikipedia is not a directory for businesses. Snap Surveys has 32 years of history in survey software and research. I would like to chronicle that history of information on Snap Surveys for Wikipedia users as other business have (i.e. Confirmit, Qualtrics)

Do you understand conflict of interest?
 * Answer: All information about Snap Surveys will be neutral, free of any promotion, pricing, marketing, etc. The intent of this page is to inform Wikipedia viewers of company information only (i.e. history, founders, locations, description of business). Our focus for this page is to inform, not to promote.

Do you understand that a wikipedia account must be accessed by one person only?
 * Answer: I handle all content creation for Snap Surveys. A single account will only be accessed by me.

Do you understand that to be considered for an encyclopedia article, the subject must be considered to be notable?
 * Answer: Being the direct source of information about Snap Surveys, this information will be both significant and reliable.
 * We cannot accept primary sources for purposes of establishing notability, as they have an incentive to lie (whether blatantly or by omission) on the subject's behalf. You need to come up with sources that Snap Surveys has no control over; see WP:Identifying reliable sources. — Jeremy  v^_^v  Bori! 20:04, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
