October 2012[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Airforceoneusa", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it might mislead people to believe that this is the official Wikipedia account of Air Force One. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 11:49, 28 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome![edit]

Hello, Twcch48, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that one of the first articles you edited was the Weather Channel, which 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 firm 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.)

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! You can also just type ((helpme)) on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Globalize tag question[edit]

You recently added the {Globalize} tag to the page 2012 State Petitions for Secession without going to the talk page and voicing your reason(s) why. This page deals with a subject matter solely within the scope of the United States as a domestic issue. I find it hard to see what "worldview" could be given to it. If you have any suggestions please make them, otherwise the tag will remain off the page as others have recommended. Thanks Coinmanj (talk) 01:52, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
