User talk:StHilda'sEstates

Welcome and advice[edit]

Hi, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions to St Hilda's College, Oxford. A couple of points, first, your username suggests a team rather than an individual, which is not allowed, and that you have a conflict of interest. I will post a standard message about this below. Secondly Wikipedia is based on what reliable sources say about a subject, so if you are adding new content you should add a reference, see Help:Referencing for beginners.

Your username[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. I saw that you edited or created St Hilda's College, Oxford, and I noticed that your username, "StHilda'sEstates", 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, service, or website. Examples of usernames that are not allowed include "XYZ Company", "MyWidgetsUSA.com", and "Foobar Museum of Art". However, you are permitted to use a username that contains such a name if it identifies you individually (not your role), such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87", but not "SEO Manager at XYZ Company".

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, service, or website, regardless of your username. Please also read our paid editing policy and our conflict of interest guideline. If you are a single individual and are willing to contribute to Wikipedia in an unbiased manner, please request a change of username by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, choosing a username that complies with our username policy. Alternatively, you can just create a new account and use that for editing. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you.

Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Hello, StHilda'sEstates. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page St Hilda's College, Oxford, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Please don't edit this article; you can post edit requests on the article's Talk page. Please see the information above about requesting a change of username. Tacyarg (talk) 14:59, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
