Your username
[edit]
Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username (MedNewscom) may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it seems to be that of an organization. Wikipedia accounts must be for individuals only, who are personally responsible for them, and usernames which are names of groups or organizations are not permitted. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you. JohnCD (talk) 22:45, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
Biographies of living persons
[edit]Having read your sandbox before deleting it at your request, I think I should draw to your attention Wikipedia's important policy Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons. Please read it all, but note in particular that it includes:
"Contentious material about living persons (or recently deceased) that is unsourced or poorly sourced—whether the material is negative, positive, neutral, or just questionable—should be removed immediately and without waiting for discussion."
