username policy
[edit]
Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "KevinBien1923", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it appears to be in violation of WP:IMPERSONATE. 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 by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you.

- I have changed my username once according to the policy you brought to my attention. My username is not my real name nor am I impersonating anyone. The name I chose is to honor somone I have a great deal of respect for and is now deceased. I would ask that you stop harassing me about this as you're starting to aggravate me.

- Hi, appreciate your reply. As you may have noticed from my profile, AGCO is a client of mine. Would you be willing to add a statement to your profile clarifying that your username is a tribute and that you are not actually Kevin Bien? We hope to avoid unnecessary confusion. Thank you. Mary Gaulke (talk) 19:30, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
- Certainly. I have added that notation to my profile to clarify the username is a tribute. KevinBien1923 (talk) 21:38, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

Copying licensed material requires attribution
[edit]Hi. I see in a recent addition to Hydrotreated vegetable oil you included material from a webpage that is available under a compatible Creative Commons Licence. That's okay, but you have to give attribution so that our readers are made aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. It's also required under the terms of the license. I've added the attribution for this particular instance. Please make sure that you follow this licensing requirement when copying from compatibly-licensed material in the future. — Diannaa (talk) 13:53, 8 May 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you very much. I am new to many facets of Wikipedia and I do not intend or want to plagarize. Thank you for helping me correct this error! 209.222.188.94 (talk) 14:48, 8 May 2023 (UTC)
