User talk:Stateoforigin

January 2017
Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Stateoforigin", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it seems to be that of an event. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username by completing this form, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 23:36, 24 January 2017 (UTC)

Hi State of origin is our Business name and has been for 15 years, it is also out website domain name being www.stateoforigin.com.au. Our business has been registered and trading for 15 plus years. All of our records and banging detials etc are associated as our name State of origin. We have also been a member on this site now for 14 plus year I guess. You should be able to check that.

thanks Fred
 * Hi Fred, your user name should not relect a business or organisation as it is a single persons account and accounts should not be shared. Mattlore (talk) 23:55, 24 January 2017 (UTC)

Hi Mattlore, We do not share this account.


 * Please review the Username policy. Usernames cannot be that of a business. If you want the business name in your username, it is only permitted if the name identifies you as an individual user("JohnPublic of Stateoforigin" or something similar).  I highly suggest that you change your name, if you do not, you are at risk of being blocked until you agree to change it.  To change it now, please visit this page for instructions. 331dot (talk) 00:03, 25 January 2017 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Stateoforigin. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article State of Origin, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:


 * avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
 * instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the request edit template);
 * when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
 * avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
 * exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. Mattlore (talk) 23:46, 24 January 2017 (UTC)

Yes I understand thanks, I just want articles to read correctly and accurate. We only make simple changes where necessary to reflect the article. The changes made today were brought up by other readers in the talk pages. If there is any thing substantial we will add to the propose changes. Also we love the work your team does.
 * Have a read of Article titles. Article names reflect common usage. In this case, "State of Origin series" is a much better title than "Rugby League NRL State of Origin series". Mattlore (talk) 23:57, 24 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Ideally, you should suggest any substantive changes on the article talk page first, and not perform them yourself. If you are paid for your work here or you are editing as part of your job, you are required by the Terms of Use to comply with the paid editing policy and declare such status.  Even if you are not paid, you should clearly declare your COI. 331dot (talk) 00:06, 25 January 2017 (UTC)

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. 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 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. Thank you. Mfield (Oi!) 06:56, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
