Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Some things about Wikipedia you might not be aware of

Welcome to Wikipedia. I saw that you edited or created North Western Road Car Company (1986), and I noticed that your username, "Nwrcc", may not comply with our username policy. Please note that you may not use a username that represents the name of a company, group, organization, product, service, or website. Examples of usernames that are not allowed include "XYZ Company", "MyWidgetsUSA.com", and "Foobar Museum of Art". However, you are permitted to use a username that contains such a name if it identifies you individually (not your role), such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87", but not "SEO Manager at XYZ Company".

Please also note that Wikipedia does not allow accounts to be shared by multiple people and that you may not advocate for or promote any company, group, organization, product, service, or website, regardless of your username. Please also read our paid editing policy and our conflict of interest guideline. If you are a single individual and are willing to contribute to Wikipedia in an unbiased manner, please request a change of username by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, choosing a username that complies with our username policy. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 12:17, 29 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

All I want to do is update what’s happening with the company name. Nwrcc (talk) 12:28, 29 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The article you have been editing isn't about a 'company name'. It is about a specific business which operated in the 1980s and 1990s. AndyTheGrump (talk) 14:31, 29 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again Nwrcc. You can help clear things up quite a bit if you can answer a simple "yes" or "no" question. The Wikipedia article you've been trying to edit is about a specific British company called North Wester Road Car Company that existed in Liverpool, England between 1986 and 1998. Are you claiming you are now the owner of that company? Please try to understand that there are many companies throughout the world that might have similar or even the same names, and Wikipedia articles are written about specific companies, not specfic names of companies. It's easily to get confused when you own a company and do an online search of its name because Wikipedia articles which appear to be about it might show up in the search results you get. If, by chance, you own an different company and just mistook the concerned Wikipedia's article for being written about your company, then that's OK. If, however, you're actually now the owner of the British company the article is written about, then that's OK too. It will be much easier to help you move forward if (1) you stop trying to directly edit the article (at least for the time being) and (2) you can clarify whether you own the company written about on Wikipedia or own a different company with the same name. The issues with your username still apply, but once more is known about which company is "your" company, those things can be fairly easily resolved. -- Marchjuly (talk) 20:43, 29 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because of the following problems: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

To do this, first search Special:CentralAuth for available usernames that comply with the username policy. Once you have found an acceptable username, post the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page.

Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page.
