User talk:Gavin010914

June 2019

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. Additionally, If you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for your contributions to Wikipedia, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} 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

{{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}

at the bottom of your talk page. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names.

Thank you. N.J.A. | talk 11:49, 26 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Accept reason:

I have changed your username and will remove the block; you will need to review the conflict of interest policy and the paid editing policy and make the appropriate declarations. As you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid directly editing articles related to your organization; instead, you are allowed to make edit requests on the article talk page(click that link for instructions). 331dot (talk) 12:35, 26 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please clarify if you want "new" in your username or if it was just left behind when you put "gavin010914" there. 331dot (talk) 12:31, 26 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
