Username concerns
editWhile investigating the copyvio on the Eisendrath house article, I noted that the City of Tempe page has a link to the Tempe Historic Preservation Foundation, or Tempe HPF. Given that you've used the username Tempehp, it appears that your account may violate the username policy. Names of organizations are not allowable as usernames for any number of reasons: the appearance of official standing of the user, the appearance of the account serving more than a single user, or confusion if the user is not affiliated with the related group.
Given your edits, it appears you're probably trying to edit in good faith about historic properties in the Tempe area, but you've unknowingly created some articles that are unacceptable under Wikipedia guidelines. I invite you to reply here to clarify what, if any, affiliation you have with the Tempe Historic Preservation Foundation and what questions you have about the copyrights guidelines and editing in general. I look forward to your reply on this talk page. —C.Fred (talk) 16:21, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
