[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "EuroTourPhotos", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it represents an organization or multiple people. 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.

I've put in a request to change my username. It seems that people think I run a tour business or something. This is not correct!!! I just went on lots of European Tours and thought this would be a good username to put my photos of Europe on. EuroTourPhotos (talk) 20:07, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, that's fine. Your current username could imply your account is controlled by multiple people, which goes against Wikipedia's username policy. C F A 💬 20:09, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
ok cool, all changed now. Sounds a little sillier too, so hope thats all ok!? FrogsLegs71 (talk) 20:12, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yup, looks good. C F A 💬 20:13, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest

[edit]

Information icon Hello, EuroTourPhotos. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for article subjects for more information. We ask that you:

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. I am very concerned that it appears that you are seen to be promoting a France tours business by uploading a bunch of photos of France to Commons and then attaching them to articles here. Please stop doing this, and instead engage in conversation on this user talk page. Failure to do so might result in escalation and loss of editing privileges. Thank you.

What? I'm so confused, I don't run a business, don't sell anything, the photos are photo from my various european trips. I have requested my username change to something completely different... EuroTourPhotos (talk) 20:04, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
