Here are a few key questions:
- Do you understand that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and not a business directory?
- Do you understand conflict of interest?
- Do you understand that to be considered for an encyclopedia article, the subject must be notable?
You are currently blocked because your username appears directly related to a company, group or product that you have been promoting, contrary to the username policy. Changing the username will not allow you to violate the 3 important principles above. Daniel Case (talk) 16:16, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

I understand what wikipedia is. I understand conflict of interest. I understand notability. I am not trying to advertise anything. The National Monuments Foundation is a non-profit organization that is involved in many important philanthropic and cultural endeavors throughout the world. My posts were not an attempt at advertising. I was only updating those pages to reflect the most recent developments and keep content current. All links posted were both relevant and notable. Please change my username so I no longer violate the username policy and please unblock my account.
- So, if you understand the above, that means you're promising not to edit ANY topic where COI exists? I'm not getting that from your response ... (✉→BWilkins←✎) 00:27, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
