Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended or used for publicity and/or promotional purposes. Please read the following carefully.

Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, celebrity or other well-known individual, or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements, and using Wikipedia for promotion. Wikipedia has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but it is considered inappropriate for such groups to use Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.

Probably not. See WP:FAQ/Organizations for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, or organization. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.
 * Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?

You are still welcome to write about something other than your company or organization. If you do intend to make useful contributions on some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:
 * What can I do now?


 * Add the text on your user talk page.
 * Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers 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 this reason, you must:
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the 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, please see how to appeal a block. - Vianello (Talk) 23:19, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Here are a few key questions:
 * Do you understand that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and not a business directory?
 * Do you understand conflict of interest?
 * Do you understand that to be considered for an encylopedia article, the subject must be considered to be notable?

You are currently blocked because your username appears directly related to a company, group or product that you have been promoting, contrary to the username policy. Changing the username will not allow you to violate the 3 important principles above. ( talk→  BWilkins   ←track ) 13:16, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

I have reviewed the three key questions and their corresponding principles. I understand that objectivity is fundamental to Wikipedia's success as an encyclopedia, and upon further thought, I realized that I would not appreciate any type of bias tinting my research with Wikipedia, particularly commercial or business bias. My intentions are to provide objective information for others to use and have erred in confusing information with business.

I am at the beginning stages of learning how to write objectively, so I do not foresee myself writing for Wikipedia, at least until I have a firm grasp on encyclopedia-writing. What I am intending to do is offer graphs and charts with a clear description of the information being presented - free from opinion.

I am not sure if my understanding, as reflected in this message, sufficiently coincides with the Wikipedia guidelines expressed through the three key questions and their corresponding principles. As previously mentioned, my intention is to offer factual information, typically as charts, for Wikipedia and am henceforth, ready to do whatever is necessary to comply and begin contributing.

Thank you.

New Username
I've removed your second choice, as the first is indeed available. In this way, the link to the new username works - and can be used to facilitate the change, if and when. UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 16:17, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
