User talk:DavidGoliathMediaPRFirm
Welcome!
[edit]Hello, DavidGoliathMediaPRFirm, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Talk:2019 El Paso shooting, 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 another 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 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.)
In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question.

- hello how can i change my user name to my personal name?? — Preceding unsigned comment added by DavidGoliathMediaPRFirm (talk • contribs)
- I would note that you are not required to use your real name, an alias or pen name is fine; you username just needs to reflect that an individual is operating this account. 331dot (talk) 09:38, 4 August 2019 (UTC)
- My apologies for the late reply. I did a cursory review of The Gateway Pundit page for you per your request. However, besides one poorly sourced section on an ongoing defamation lawsuit, it all seemed fine to me. (link to my changes)
You seem to related to a Public Relations firm, so I wanted to ensure you had information on the prohibition against undisclosed paid editing. It's just something really important you should be aware of. –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 19:43, 4 August 2019 (UTC)

[edit]Hello. A renamer or clerk has responded to your username change request, but requires clarification before moving forward. Please follow up at your username change request entry as soon as possible. Thank you. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 03:40, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

hey it worked! the 4 tildes Joseph A Camerieri 01:56, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
Hello again, I see that you managed to change the signature (which is not username). Unlike other sites on Wikipedia users can't change their username themselves, but they have to request.
No worries you already submitted a request successfully, but I need your input before processing the rename.
As I can see, you have requested to be renamed to your real name, which could have some implementations (see https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia:Username_policy#Real_names).
After reading the link, you can reply here that you want the real name (which is JosephACamerieri) or something else. Be sure not to choose a company name or some positions in company. If you need further help before deciding, feel free to ask. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 04:39, 7 August 2019 (UTC)
