Bad username
[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. I saw that you edited or created John C. Wells Planetarium, and I noticed that your username, "Jmuplanetarium", may not comply with our username policy. Please note that you may not use a username that represents the name of a company, group, organization, product, or website.

However, you are invited to use a username that contains such a name if it identifies you personally, such as "Mark at WidgetsUSA", "Jack Smith at the XY Foundation", and "WidgetFan87".
Please also note that Wikipedia does not allow accounts to be shared by multiple people, and that you may not advocate for or promote any company, group, organization, product, or website, regardless of your username.

- Given that the Wells Planetarium is located at James Madison University (JMU), it is fairly clear that this username was created to represent the Wells Planetarium. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 18:48, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
- WikiDan61, since there is an individual name in here ("Katie"), the name does not violate our policy--though the COI is pretty clear. Katie, that's all the more reason to be as neutral as possible in your edits. Drmies (talk) 02:47, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
- @Drmies: You'll notice that the username to which the warning was addressed was Jmuplanetarium; the user has changed usernames since the warning was applied. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 02:49, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
- Haha, I will, and I now have, but I didn't. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 02:51, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
