June 2014 edit

 
Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia with this username. This is because your username, DarlingAgency, does not meet our username policy.

Your username is the only reason for this block. You are welcome to choose a new username (see below) and continue editing.

A username should not be promotional, related to a "real-world" group or organization, misleading, offensive or disruptive. Also, usernames may not end in the word "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account

You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines and create the account yourself. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:

  1. Adding {{unblock-un|your new username here}} on your user talk page. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "E-mail this user" on their talk page.
  2. At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
  3. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Wikipedia:Changing username.
If you feel that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|Your reason here}}, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 18:15, 10 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

Conflict of interest edit

I note that your edits have been exclusively to the article Genpact, which is a client of Darling Agency. Even with an individual username, you would have a WP:Conflict of interest in respect of your employer or any of their clients, so that you should not edit their articles directly, though you may make suggestions on article talk pages for uninvolved users to consider. Please read the Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide before editing again. JohnCD (talk) 21:08, 10 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

  • I should have added that a username of the form "James at Darling Agency" would be perfectly acceptable, and a useful way to make your affiliation clear. JohnCD (talk) 11:20, 11 June 2014 (UTC)Reply


To clarify, you may have a point about the edits being made to Genpact, however that is secondary to the problem with your username. You are welcome to request a change as detailed in the notice above, or simply abandon it and create another (personal) account. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 17:07, 11 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

And you need to propose changes on the talk page rather than editing the article directly yourself, in accordance with our Conflict of interest guideline WP:COI. ~Amatulić (talk) 21:37, 11 June 2014 (UTC)Reply
