October 2022[edit]

Hello, I'm Mako001. I wanted to let you know that one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Parr Lumber—has been undone because it appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thank you.

Hello. PARR LUMBER has rebranded and has new logo on their website.How can I share with you the logo to update on wikipedia? Nancycranston (talk) 22:28, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, club, organization, company, or website, I have blocked this account from editing. You are welcome to continue editing after you have chosen a new username that complies with Wikipedia's username policy.

You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable, regardless of the username that you choose. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid or compensated in any way, you must disclose who is paying you to edit here.

Please take a moment to either create a new account, or request a username change of your current account here. The new username that you choose must represent you as an individual person, and it must comply with Wikipedia's username policy.

To create a new account with a different username, simply log out of this account and then click here to make a new one.
If you prefer to change the username on this account, you may do so by adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page here: {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken or in use by another account. You can go here to search and see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If the search returns that no global account with that username exists, that means it is available to be taken.

Please also note that you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it also identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87", but not "SEO Manager at XYZ Company".

Appeals: If your username does not represent a group, organization, website, or other entity described above, and if you believe that this block was incorrect or made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page here: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

Thank you. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she|they|xe) 11:06, 22 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome![edit]

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

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome! -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she|they|xe) 22:36, 22 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for unblocking my account. I made some changes to the Parr Lumber Wikipedia page such as the correct location is 44, I updated CEO name, I updated services as well as number of employee which is 1400+

Shall I press publish changes or can you review before I publish to avoid any issue? Thank you Nancycranston (talk) 16:04, 24 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There is a problem with the edits you've already made to Parr Lumber and those problems may also apply to the changes you have pending. You failed to cite a source for the changes you made and at least one of the changes made the page more promotional, so would need to be reversed.

You have also failed to disclose your connection with the subjects you are editing about. Do that first. — jmcgnh^{(talk) (contribs)} 16:29, 24 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

source to these changes are from the website. I live in portland Oregon and bought one of the item from parr lumber long time back. So, while I was talking to my peers and noticed wikipedia has wrong number of locations and CEO’s name in the system so I wanted to update the wikipedia page.

March 2023[edit]

You still have not adequately responded or taken action to the inquiry regarding your appearance as an undisclosed paid editor. If you make any additional edits without complying, you may be blocked from editing. 331dot (talk) 22:33, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
