  Hello, I'm Jauerback. I wanted to let you know that I removed an external link you added to the page Alexander M. Cutler, because to me it seemed inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links. Thank you.

Dear Jauerback, I have requested for my username to be changed since you have marked me as a spam account. I as an individual am very interested in capital markets, economics, and financial policy. I am asking you to please assist me get my account unblocked so I can make contributions to Wikipedia. The link that you deemed unnecessary for an encyclopedia entry was something I saw no fault in referencing. In this example http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luigi_Zingales the link/reference to the page I was linking/referencing already exists on Wikipedia. This shows an external link to this prominent research group's website has been used before and it is not a spam external link. If you or an administrator still believe it is an issue linking this external link, then I will only post in plain text. It is not my goal to promote a group as you say. I would like to offer accurate information to other individuals interested in what the prominent figures of America's economic and financial world are involved in since many people use Wikipedia to gather information. I realize my errors and would like to move forward from this. Since I can not respond or edit on your page because you blocked my account, please respond as soon as possible. Thank you.

 
Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy.  You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose.

If your username doesn't represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice. If you prefer to be unblocked for the purpose of changing your username to a username which complies with our username policy, so that your contributions with this username are recorded as contributions of your new username and rather than creating a new account, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice instead. Thank you.

Requested username:

Request reason:

I would like to request my current username to be changed to the one listed because I, as an individual, am interested in capital markets, finance, and economic policy. My purpose for using Wikipedia is to help provide accurate information on prominent professionals who are involved with America's fiscal and financial policy groups. For other individuals, similar to myself, who are interested in what groups or other activities these professionals are involved in Wikipedia serves as a resource to gather some of this information. I do not want to promote or market a specific group or institution and I don't think it should be considered promoting when there is evidence of the members of various committees and groups. Please reconsider this username change which would allow me to provide a service to other individuals who have the same area of interest. Thank you. CCMRintern (talk) 18:52, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
