Your article edit

Thank you for your edits. I'm always keen to see experts editing Wikipedia. However, there are some major problems with your edits given Wikipedia policy. I've linked to guides explaining in more detail. Academic departments aren't automatically notable, meaning significant enough to have a Wikipedia article on them. Some are, but they depend on being covered in media separately to their university. (Can you add citations (not written by your university) from reliable sources discussing this department as a separate organisation?) So really this might be better as a section in the Nuffield College article. And in general, articles shouldn't be written by employees of the organisation they are writing an article on.

Separately, thank you for registering an account. However, Wikipedia doesn't allow accounts that sound like they belong to a company or a department, only ones that belong to specific people - so 'NicolaSmith@CESS' would be fine, 'Nuffieldcess' isn't. So (for example if you plan to contribute to Wikipedia on topics besides ones you're connected to) you will soon be asked to reregister under an account that's personal to you, the person sitting typing stuff into the keyboard, or file a name change request.

Finally, writing promotional material on Wikipedia is subject to restrictions. You might want to look at this, an automated text on editing if you have a conflict of interest. All the best, any questions just let me know and I'll try to help. Blythwood (talk) 12:58, 25 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, Nuffieldcess. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, please:

  • avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your circle, your organization, its competitors, projects or products;
  • instead propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you.

 
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.

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. Thank you.
