User talk:Nmiller25

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the username you have chosen (Nmiller25) seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of a group, company or website.

There are two issues with this:

It is possible that you have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, you must exercise great caution when editing on topics related to your organization.
Your account cannot represent a group of people. You may wish to create a new account with a username that represents only you. Alternatively, you may consider changing your username to avoid giving the impression that your personal account is being used for promotional purposes.

Regardless of whether you change your name or create a new account, you are not exempted from the guideline to avoid editing where you have a conflict of interest. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you.

Welcome

Hello, Nmiller25, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that one of the first articles you created was Nicole Miller, which appears to be an article about yourself. This is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians—as this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. Your user page, however, is a great place to write about yourself, making sure to stay within user page guidelines. Just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit it normally.

The page you created about yourself has been or will shortly be speedily deleted from Wikipedia, but if you want to use the content from it, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

Nicole Miller

The primary reason that the information that you added to the Nicole Miller was removed was because there were no cited sources. All information added to articles on living people must be cited to a reliable source. You also may want to read Wikipedia:Conflict of interest and Wikipedia:Autobiography.

Unsourced material

Please do not add unsourced content, as you did to Nicole Miller. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. J04n(talk page) 19:58, 10 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Additional note: In addition to the boilerplate above, let me add that if you continue adding material to the article in violation of Wikipedia policy and the discussions raised here, you may eventually be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Don't hesitate to drop me a note at my talk page if I can explain these points in more detail. Thanks for your understanding. --j⚛e decker ^talk 17:26, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, --j⚛e decker ^talk 19:30, 17 January 2011 (UTC)I've left a reply to your message here: Wikipedia:New_contributors'_help_page/questions#Someone_keeps_taking_down_my_page --Physics is all gnomes (talk) 18:49, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I hadn't seen "Physics" reply, but I've left a note myself with more information here: [1]. --j⚛e decker ^talk 19:30, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for spamming or advertising. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. — GorillaWarfare ^talk 19:00, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Nmiller25 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I am trying to add citations to my company page. I have no idea why someone keeps removing the listing I posted!

Decline reason:

You were blocked for advertisement, making several edits such as this. This is consistent with your statement that you have a commercial interest in the subject. Because of this conflict of interest, you shouldn't be editing this page at all. Favonian (talk) 19:16, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Consider this my response to both the email and your question above. You've been adding biased, promotional content to your boss's page. You clearly have a conflict of interest, and although you've been warned to be careful with editing pages with which you have a COI, you have not been. You're not only adding citations, you're adding content to turn it into an advertisement. — GorillaWarfare ^talk 19:13, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
