Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Poems for Parliament", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it is that of a website. 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 by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 16:06, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The website poemsforparliament.uk is owned by me it is not an organisation, I am set up as a sole-trader publishing company with the same email address. My website is more relevant as disclosure of my association, I hope to submit a further Wikipedia entry about a new concept of a UN United Aspiration, but this concept will need some public recognition before I can submit it as a new entry. It links closely to the problems relating to ecological collapse entry that I am working on at the moment Poems for Parliament (talk) 16:22, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The username policy does not permit a website name as a username, in part because every appearance of the name is a advertisement for it. The name can be part of a username, such as "JohnPublic of PoemsFP". You may also make disclosures as statements on your userpage. 331dot (talk) 16:34, 30 July 2021 (UTC) Thanks I have submitted a username change request.

About your Draft article on Ecological overshoot

Hi @Global Aspiration:,

Welcome to Wikipedia. I am an WP:AFC reviewer. I am happy to see that your first creation is about a natural history article — ecological overshoot. I write and maintain natural history articles myself.

While the article is in reasonable shape for a new editor writing his first article, it can be developed further. Let me know, if you would like to have an article improvement session, with me giving you suggestions/points for improvement periodically for you to improve while learning Wikipedia editing. :)

Do read the links given in the welcome message, as well. Let me know if you are interested in this learning opportunity by replying here to my post.

Best wishes & happy editing, Ashwin Baindur (User:AshLin) (talk) 11:19, 25 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Much appreciated, thank you for removing the link to my website from my user name. Does this mean I can keep my username as 'global aspiration'?

Johannes (Talk) (Contribs) (Articles) 12:47, 26 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for this feedback Johannes. I am working with the Royal Society of Arts on their manifesto. I am optimistic that they will advocate this concept; this will help to make the article more objective. Also, my social science paper should emerge from peer review eventually, so that will hopefully become a reliable source. Am guilty of attempting to run before I can walk.
