Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "McNabbT Nature'sFlame", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it is the name of a company. 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. -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 03:49, 15 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that 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 ~~~~}} below this notice.

You may simply create a new account if you wish, but if you would prefer to be unblocked for the purpose of changing your username to a username which complies with our username policy, so that your contributions with this username are recorded as contributions of your new username you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice instead. Thank you.

Here are a few key questions:

• Do you understand that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and not a business directory?
• Do you understand conflict of interest?
• Do you understand that to be considered for an encyclopedia article, the subject must be notable?

You are currently blocked because your username appears directly related to a company, group or product that you have been promoting, contrary to the username policy. Changing the username will not allow you to violate the 3 important principles above. Max Semenik (talk) 21:12, 19 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. I work for Nature's Flame. The only reason I signed up to make Edits on Wikipedia is that my company was appearing there, apparently organically, with very out of date and inaccurate information. I simply wanted to rectify this. I didn't ask for Nature's Flame to be found on Wikipedia, it just was, and I wanted to ensure the data being shown is correct. I have no real interest in contributing to Wikipedia as a whole - I am not an academic nor a specialist in any topic, except for our business. I understand that Wikipedia is an ecyclopedia - I have used it many times. I also understand Conflict of Interest. As for a subject being 'notable', as I was not the one to 'create' the Nature's Flame entry on Wikipedia, but simply corrected it so it was true, I don't believe this point applies to me.

With your assistance I would like to simply be able to update the Nature's Flame Wikipedia page when it needs updating, and nothing else!

Please let me know if there is a better way to achieve this as this is all feeling a bit like hard work at the moment :-)

Many thanks,

Trudi McNabb

Wikipedia fights a continual battle against people who want to use it for advertising or promotion. In order to maintain a neutral point of view, there are strong rules against editing with a WP:Conflict of interest. Please read that guideline, and the WP:Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest. If unblocked, do you agree, in any edits you make connected with your employer, to follow those rules, i.e. suggest changes on the article talk page rather than make them directly?

Hi John, Yes, I agree to follow the guidelines. Please unblock my username and change it to "wood_pellet_enthusiast".

Many thanks,
