Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which 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 or request a change of username.

You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose.

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 ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page.

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 ~~~~}}

at the bottom of your talk page. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names.

 Thank you.

Request reason:

I didn't realize that usernames should not reflect an organization. I actually work for the Merage School and wanted to be very clear about any potential conflicts of interest. Merageschool (talk) 23:40, 25 February 2019 (UTC)

Accept reason:

I have renamed your account from Merageschool. Since that was the only reason for the block, I will lift it. However, I urge you to review the policies I mention below before you do anything else. 331dot (talk) 00:01, 26 February 2019 (UTC)

If 'comms' refers to communications, that will not be acceptable either. Your username must reflect that this account is used by a specific individual. You do not need to use your real name, just something individualistic. Please edit your request to put a new choice of name. If you want to mention the school in your name, a username in the format of "Username of Merage School" would be acceptable. While not directly related to your block, you will need to review the conflict of interest policy and the paid editing policy before you edit. 331dot (talk) 23:50, 25 February 2019 (UTC)

I changed the requested username to something totally unique that has nothing to do with the organization. Merageschool (talk) 23:58, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
