editHello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, UWCLTD, may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it appears to represent United World Capital Ltd rather than an individual. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may file for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account and use that for editing. Thank you. Fæ (talk) 11:48, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
- Hi, the issue is not one of copyright but the username policy that all Wikipedia accounts should represent an individual rather than a group of people or any business. You do not have to use any real name and can edit anonymously under any fictional account name you prefer (as I do) in order to protect your privacy. Fæ (talk) 13:22, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
Is there a way for me to change my username or I have to open a new account with a different username and edit the whole page I uploaded anew?
- See Changing username which has some helpful advice; you can either change your username with the help of a bureaucrat (taking your edit history with you to a new account name) or just start again and copy the user page you have created to your new account and then blank the old one (make sure you do not log in as the old account from that point on as you may fall in breach of WP:SOCK). See WP:USER for some advice on what is allowable for user pages. Fæ (talk) 08:05, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
Yes, but where exactly can I change my user name? Can you give me the link to that page? I've been searching for this page for ages, and I still don't find it.
- It is linked to on the main guidance page, see Wikipedia:Changing_username/Simple. The name you want to move to has to be unused. Fæ (talk) 10:51, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on User:John Trader, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
