Your edits in Suhrkamp Verlag

  Hello, Suhrkampverlag. 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 COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

  • avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
  • instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. Regards, HaeB (talk) 09:25, 29 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Suhrkampverlag", 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. Alternatively, you can just create a new account and use that for editing. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you.

Thanks for your message, @Graham87. We're a German publishing house and sometimes editing articles about our authors (to create new articles on meaningful persons or to correct misleading contents).
We registered officially with this username for the German Wikipedia: Wikipedia and I don't want to use your form "GlobalRenameRequest" as this would also change the (validated) username of our German account.
It is only on very rare occasions that we edit English articles - how can we proceed in order not to alter the German account? Suhrkampverlag (talk) 12:30, 16 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
Unfortunately usernames are global. shared accounts are not allowd and the English Wikipedia has a strong conflict of interest guideline. Either create another account for the English Wikipedia (wwith an explicit link to the German account) or ask for a global rename to be performed. Graham87 (talk) 12:38, 16 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thank you. I created this account according to your guidelines. How would I set an "explicit link" to our German account as you suggested in your reply? Demian at Suhrkamp Verlag (talk) 13:09, 16 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Demian at Suhrkamp Verlag: Thanks for that. You can mention it on your user page. Graham87 (talk) 14:10, 16 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
