Conflict of interest

As your name indicates, you have a serious conflict of interest in regards to Cooper Union, and Cooper Union financial crisis and tuition protests. Because of this, you need to read our policy on editing with a conflict of interest, and follow the rules there -- that is, you should not edit those articles directly, but make suggestions on the articles' talk pages, and allow other editors to make the edits if they agree with them.

Also, your username is in violation of our username policy, as it represents an organization. Beyond My Ken (talk) 22:49, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy. It also appears that your account is intended to be used for the purpose of telling the world about an organization or cause that you consider worthwhile. Unfortunately, many good causes are not sufficiently notable for their own Wikipedia article, and all users are discouraged from editing in any area where they have an inherent conflict of interest. You may wish to consider one of these alternative outlets.

If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice.

You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice. Thank you.
