Dear Mr. Excirial,

Thank you for reviewing my article. But I see that you did not accepted my article about "World University of Bangladesh". Thank you for it but I just seen it that how it works. But the main thing is that This [1] article is executed by another person who is not responsible for any editing or showing this page to the Wikipedia. Although, on be half of this University I'm working for writing articles of contents of it. For that reason I am eagerly seeking your assistance to rewrite this article or delete this article. And please feel free to contact me or our officials to make confirmation of it.

Hello Netmusha,
I think there are a few important points i must raise in this specific case. First and foremost i would point out that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia that is collectively writing by a multitude of contributors. Due to this no single article is ever owned by a specific editor - any editor may start an article regarding a subject as long as it is within the respective Wikipedia guidelines for inclusion, neutrality and verifiability. In effect this means that on-one has or needs authorization from an article subject to write about it, nor does working for the subject grant extended privileges over other editors.
In fact the situation is quite the opposite. Since you specifically mentioned you are editing on behalf of the subject of the article you have a so-called COI or conflict of interest. Wikipedia itself strives to provide high quality encyclopedic content and writing such content is difficult if not impossible if someone has close allegiance with the subject of the article. This was quite visible in the article you submitted, as it was a clear advertisement for the university rather then being a neutral and encyclopedic page (Besides being a copyright infringement, as it was copied straight from the universities website).
As a conclusion i would point out that that the COI policy strongly discourages editing any article one has a conflict of interest with. If the edits made are intended for promotional purposes this will eventually be seen as disruption which in turn is grounds for a block.
