  Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "NMGC PR", may not comply with our username policy. Please note that you may not use a username that represents the name of a company, group, organization, product, or website. Examples of usernames that are not allowed include "XYZ Company", "MyWidgetsUSA.com", and "Trammel Museum of Art". However, you are invited to use a username that contains such a name if it identifies you personally, such as "Mark at WidgetsUSA", "Jack Smith at the XY Foundation", and "WidgetFan87".

Please also note that Wikipedia does not allow accounts to be shared by multiple people, and that you may not advocate for or promote any company, group, organization, product, or website, regardless of your username. Moreover, I recommend that you read our conflict of interest guideline. If you are a single individual and are willing to contribute to Wikipedia in an unbiased manner, please create a new account or request a change of username, by completing this form, that complies with our username policy. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you. ElKevbo (talk) 01:44, 11 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

@ElKevbo: The History was taken directly from the NMGC site and thus does not violate copyright. Additionally the board was included as many umbrella organizations include.
You can't simply copy copyrighted material into Wikipedia. Please read some of the links above. If you continue doing this you will be blocked. ElKevbo (talk) 14:57, 15 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
@ElKevbo: as a member of NMGC I am enhancing the wiki to provide a well rounded overview of the umbrella organization following the example of other organization. I have the permission to use the information. Nothing is being done without the consent of the organization.
