AfC notification: Draft:Heather Cutler Foundation has a new comment

I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:Heather Cutler Foundation. Thanks! Hammersoft (talk) 02:02, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Your account has been blocked from editing because your username gives the impression that the account represents a group, club, organization, company, or website. Your username is the principal reason for the block. You are welcome to continue editing after you have chosen a new username that complies with Wikipedia's username policy.

You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable, regardless of the username that you choose. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid or compensated in any way, you must disclose who is paying you to edit here. You may also read our FAQ for article subjects.

Please take a moment to either create a new account, or request a username change to this account.

To create a new account with a different username, simply log out of this account and then click here to make a new one.
If you prefer to change the username of this account, you may do so by adding the following text to the bottom of your user talk page (this page): {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

Important items to note:

The new username that you choose must represent you as an individual person, and it must comply with Wikipedia's username policy.
The new username you choose cannot already be taken and used by another account. You can search here to see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If the search returns, "There is no global account for [username]", that means it is available.
Please also note that you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it also identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87", but not "SEO Manager at XYZ Company".

Appeals: If your username does not represent a group, organization, website, or other entity described above, and if you believe that this block was incorrect or made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the following text to the bottom of your user talk page (this page): {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

Thank you. Hammersoft (talk) 02:10, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Requested username:

Request reason:

Username wasn’t allowed to contain company name although the company name is not Team Heather. I’d like to request a change. Thank you! TeamHeatherNL (talk) 01:28, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Accept reason:

I have renamed your account. Since this is only a username block, I will remove it. However, you will need to address your relationship with the foundation you were editing about. I see that you declared a COI; If you work for the foundation or they otherwise compensate you(it doesn't have to be money or even anything tangible) the Terms of Use require the stricter paid editing disclosure. 331dot (talk) 07:54, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your account name is only part of the problem. You also have to address your conflict of interest regarding the topic you're writing about. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 05:52, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
