User talk:StrangerFestival

Welcome
Hi and welcome to Wikipedia. Your account seems to be used to edit only one page, Strangerfestival, which is the same as your username. This may mean you have a conflict of interest and are not contributing to improve Wikipedia. Please remember that Wikipedia isn't for advertising or social networking, and usernames are meant to be used to represent individuals rather than groups, such as the group that runs StrangerFestival. Finally, maintaining a neutral point of view is very important here on Wikipedia and you should try to be unbiased when you contribute to Wikipedia. I hope you enjoy your time here on Wikipedia.

I do want to make a StrangerFestival page, but not for advertising. Is there a way to change the username to a more personal one?(StrangerFestival (talk) 16:03, 23 February 2009 (UTC))
 * Once you've made your username, you're pretty much stuck with it unless you get approval to change it. There are instructions for requesting a username change here. [Phlygh  t ]  16:18, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Many thanks! If I make this page with the best intentions do I need to change my username because it is the same as the page I created, or does it just looks like a conflict of interest? I do not want to get banned, so I am willing to do anything. Thank you for your time.(StrangerFestival (talk) 16:25, 23 February 2009 (UTC))
 * It would be better for you if you changed your username because it does look like a conflict of interest, since you sound like you're writing on behalf of the festival. If you explain that you accidentally named yourself after the page you wanted to create in your "reason for request" then I'm quite sure your name would be changed. Also, remember to keep your neutral point of view - the Strangerfestival article's introduction and the section "About Strangerfestival" still sound a little biased in favour of the festival.

 * Thanks again for taking the time and explaining me about the rules. I will change my username and also the about section on the page!
