Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the external links you added do not comply with our guidelines for external links. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia.

If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with,
 * 2) participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors,
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam);
 * and you must always:
 * 1) avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.

My concern about your username
Hello, Watchpasha, and welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope not to seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but I noticed your username, and am concerned that it might not meet Wikipedia's username policy. After you look over that policy, could we discuss that concern here?

I'd appreciate learning your own views, for instance your reasons for wanting this particular name, and what alternative username you might accept that avoids raising this concern.

You have several options freely available to you:
 * If you can relieve my concern through discussing it here, I can stop worrying about it.
 * If the two of us can't agree here, we can ask for help through Wikipedia's dispute resolution process, such as asking for a "third opinion", or requesting comments from other Wikipedians. Wikipedia administrators usually abide by agreements reached through this process.
 * You can keep your contributions history under a new username. Visit Changing username and follow the guidelines there.

Let me reassure you that my writing here means I don't think your username is grossly, blatantly, or obviously inappropriate; such names get reported straight to Usernames for administrator attention or blocked on sight. This is more a case where opinions might differ, and it would be good to reach some consensus — either here or at Requests for comment/User names. So I look forward to a friendly discussion, and to enjoying your continued participation on Wikipedia. Thank you. ShadowHalo 19:28, 19 June 2007 (UTC) ShadowHalo 19:28, 19 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Dimme amigo, Well really I'm few days contributing to Wikipedia, and I'm really feeling you have a great Administrators ;) yeah my problem that I haven't read your polices before writing something here. And I just learned from you that it's not allowed to use promoting usernames even if it was just easy for me to pick one.


 * Anyway, it looks like I'm going to register with a new "real name" username now, too bad history with this one now...thou I've learned a lot with it.


 * Btw, I can see you professional in Wikipedia, tell me please, I do own website, and I do feel that what I want to add to wikipedia article really usefull, like it was with a link to artist's music video on the song's article. I was told by --Dirk Beetstra "try to discuss the topic in Talks area", if community will find it usefull it will be added, i tried so but I don't see any reaction what so ever, neither bad or good only "corrections of my spelling by admins". So the questions is how to do it in a efficient way?

Thx in advance, Pasha aka by now is --Watchpasha 20:22, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
