User talk:Atkafilms
Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Atkafilms, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the username you have chosen seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of a group, company or website.
There are two issues with this:
- You may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, you must exercise great caution when editing on topics related to your organization.
- Your account cannot represent a group of people. You may wish to create a new account with a username that represents only you. Alternatively, you may consider changing your username to avoid giving the impression that your personal account is being used for promotional purposes.
Regardless of whether you change your name or create a new account, you are not exempted from the guideline to avoid editing where you have a conflict of interest. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations.
Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

- How to write a great article
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.
If you need help, you can check the help pages or ask at the Help desk, add a question to the village pump, or look in Wikipedia:Questions, Also, you can go to the New contributors' help page, read over the Help manual, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on the bottom of your talk page and ask your question there. Finally, If you would like help now, please feel free to pop into the live help chat, with this or this. Again, welcome! Avicennasis @ 23:36, 21 Av 5771 / 23:36, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
