Hello, Uni of nicosia. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article University of Nicosia, you may need to consider our guidance on conflicts of interest.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:


 * Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
 * Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
 * Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).
 * Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. King of Nothing (talk) 22:37, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at University of Nicosia, you may be blocked from editing. King of Nothing (talk) 07:27, 13 November 2012 (UTC)

University of Nicosia
Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and material must have an encyclopedic tone and have a neutral point of view. Please do not add promotional material as you did to University of Nicosia. Jim1138 (talk) 07:42, 13 November 2012 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at University of Nicosia, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. King of Nothing (talk) 07:50, 13 November 2012 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. I saw how you edited or created University of Nicosia, and I noticed that the username you have chosen, "Uni of nicosia", seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of something other than yourself. Please note that you may not edit on behalf of a company, group, institution, product, or website, and Wikipedia does not allow usernames that are promotional or have the appearance of shared use. If you are willing to use a personal account, please take a moment to create a new account or request a username change that represents only yourself as an individual. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and remember that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you. Cindy ( talk to me ) 09:29, 13 November 2012 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that 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. 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 doesn't represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. If you prefer to be unblocked for the purpose of changing your username to a username which complies with our username policy, so that your contributions with this username are recorded as contributions of your new username and rather than creating a new account, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice instead. Thank you. 7 09:48, 13 November 2012 (UTC)


 * Although the blocking administrator has chosen to give you a block notice which refers only to the username issue, that is not, in fact, by any means the only problem. There is also the fact that your editing has been a clear attempt to use Wikipedia for promotion, which is against Wikipedia policy. Also, you need to be aware that nobody has the right to take charge of a Wikipedia article as though they own it, and forbid anyone else from editing it. Wikipedia is not a free service for institutions to use to publish their own preferred account of themselves. If that is what you wish to do then please do it on your own web site, not here.


 * What can I do now?

If you have no interest in writing about some other topic than your university, you will probably not be allowed to edit Wikipedia again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead. If you do intend to make useful contributions about some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:


 * 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.

Please note that, in order for your request to have a reasonable chance of success, you must address the conflict of interest issue, and make it clear that your editing will not be promotional, and will not be made on behalf of your business or other organisation. If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text below but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.
