Username
[edit]Thank you for your edits. I just am curious about your username and if this is going to be a shared account. Is this an account set up for Rowan Public Library? -- Shrikesong (talk) 22:39, 27 March 2014 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that the username you have chosen, "Rplhistory", seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of something other than yourself. Please note that you may not edit on behalf of a company, group, institution, product, or website which relates to the entity in question, and Wikipedia does not allow usernames that are promotional or accounts that are shared. If you are willing to use a personal account, please take a moment to create a new account or request a username change that represents only yourself as an individual. You should also read our Conflict of interest guideline and Plain and simple conflict of interest guide, and remember that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you. -- Shrikesong (talk) 22:39, 27 March 2014 (UTC)
The account was set up to be a personal account and I was not planning to share the account. I had thought to avoid using my name and using something more neutral. I did read at least briefly the user name policy and did not intend to represent or edit on behalf of an institution. I certainly will be willing to change my user name so my edits do not appear to be on behalf of anyone other than myself. My apologies. Rplhistory (talk) 23:23, 1 April 2014 (UTC)
- I understand. That sounds fine to me. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't going to be a shared account. Thank you. Shrikesong (talk) 23:33, 1 April 2014 (UTC)
