Help request

Hi Vincent Liu,

Thank you for established our CCIS Page, I would like to advise you that the content is out dated, and the categories are not suitable to our organization, Please would you allow me to edit the content. Please also visit out website for more recent information. http://www.ccis-calgary.ab.ca Best regards, Khalid

As you refer to "our CCIS page" it seems that you are associated with the organization and therefore, from our point of view, have a conflict of interest in regard to it; please read that page, and also WP:Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest. It would be best to suggest any changes on the article talk page; on the article itself, you should only make absolutely uncontroversial factual changes. The sort things you were writing: "We are a community leader with 31 years of solid experience... We pride ourselves... dynamic multicultural, multilingual and multidisciplinary team of professionals... optimum assistance... wide variety of specialized services... " are PR-speak, the organization writing in the first person to tell the world how good it is. That is absolutely unacceptable for an encyclopedia article, which should describe the organization from outside, no glowing adjectives (see WP:PEACOCK), only plain facts cited to reliable published sources. One of Wikipedia's fundamental policies is WP:Neutral point of view, and it is because people associated with a subject find it hard to avoid a promotional tone, or even to realise that they are using one, that editing with a COI is strongly discouraged.

If the article is inaccurate, explain why on the talk page, and suggest changes, but do not expect it to be the sort of "manifesto" the society would write about itself - you have Myspace and the like for that, it is not what an encyclopedia does. It is not "our CCIS page", it is Wikipedia's page about the CCIS. See User:JohnCD/Not a noticeboard for background.

One thing that would help the article is if you can supply references to the society that show significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources.

Please request a change of username

Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Cciscalgary", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because Wikipedia accounts must be for individuals only, who are personally responsible for them, and usernames which are the names of groups or organizations are not permitted. 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. JohnCD (talk) 21:09, 20 November 2012 (UTC)

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 doesn't represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice. If you 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 and rather than creating a new account, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice instead. Thank you.
