User talk:Cynthiarowleyofficial
Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Cynthiarowleyofficial, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Cynthia Rowley, which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.
To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.
One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)
Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!

Username concern
[edit]Hello. I would like to ask you to state whether or not you are Cynthia Rowley herself, or someone else editing on her behalf. Please note that Wikipedia's username policy states that if your username is that of a notable person and it is not your real name, the account may be blocked to prevent damaging impersonation.
If you are Cynthia Rowley, please review Wikipedia's policy on autobiographies. Wikipedia discourages people from creating or editing articles about themselves, because of inherent bias. You can remove blatantly false or libellous information, but any substantial changes should be posted on the article talk page for review and consensus with other uninvolved editors.
If you are not Cynthia Rowley but are someone acting on her behalf, please review Wikipedia's plain and simple conflict of interest guide to see why this type of editing is discouraged. If you are someone who works for her or receives any other form of compensation for your efforts here, you are required to disclose this information per Wikipedia's terms of use.
Thank you for your cooperation. --Drm310 (talk) 16:51, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose.
If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice.
You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice. Thank you.
