User talk:HachCompany

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy. 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.

May I enquire who 'we' are? Peridon (talk) 22:30, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry. We is me, the person that is updating the information about Hach Company this is incorrect or out of date on the page.

Your new name would be OK, but consider this query:

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) 03:53, 21 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your response. I do understand the key questions and I am working to correct the tone and intent of the wikipedia page for Hach to make the page informative about the history of the company, the general facts about what the company does and the importance of historical contribution of Clifford and Kitty Hach to clean water, not promoting Hach as a company or their products. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.90.124.40 (talk) 16:44, 21 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I received notification that this talk page issue was updated yesterday afternoon after my reply (the paragraph that starts with 'Thank you for your response...' but I can see no changes after my last update. I apologize if I am missing changes made somewhere else on the talk page but I am confused on the status of our request. Are you waiting on an additional response from me or is this still being considered on your side?
