User talk:Hvargas-glma

Welcome!

Hello, Hvargas-glma, 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 any other 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.)

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

• The plain and simple conflict of interest guide
• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• Tutorial
• How to edit a page and How to develop articles
• How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
• Simplified Manual of Style

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!

Moving and Editing the GLMA page

Armbrust, thanks for the welcome and the pointers. At this point, I am mainly trying to update the page to reflect the organization's new name/branding and make sure there are no errors. If it's helpful and will expedite to run those questions by an editor, then I will do so. I have a clarification question regarding a Move: I was denied expedited Confirmed Access and told to request a move in the normal way by suggesting it in the talk section of the page. Fine. How long does this request stay open and once that period is over, do I need to be an Auto-Confirmed user to actually make the change. As I suggested in my request, I am unlikely to qualify under Auto-Confirm--I will not make 10 edits since my edits will be limited to this organization's page. Thank you for your assistance.

Hi there. Autoconfirmed status is obtained after you did ten edits and four-day account age. So you can just go find and edit some article that needs the grammar to be edited, expanding citations, etc. Or if you do not want to do that, you could read WP:RM. Good luck and happy editing!

Nice to meet you. Thanks for your request. I sent you an email asking to talk because I wanted some more information. Blue Rasberry (talk) 19:18, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
