"Banned"
editI see you mentioned that you have been "banned" from editing Wikipedia. Can you provide a link to the block or ban in question? Banning is usually only for very serious offenses, so unless you have been banned for some other account than @Virginia Bruce:, @Webwmn:, @Cdrmil:, or @Vrbruce:, I'm rather confused. Yes an editor had issue with the "cdrmil" account but the block was only because of the user name, which you changed. You also seemed to be engaging in some promotional edits, adding what looked like spam external links, which you may discuss on the Cedar Mill, Oregon talk page. It helps to disclose your COI (please read that link, you are not "banned" from editing, but editors with a COI are strongly cautioned to understand our COI policy and guidelines) on your user page and ask that a neutral editor look over any edits that may involve that conflict. Which account do you wish to have as your primary account to edit from? Because the other two accounts need to be blocked unless you wish to declare one as an alternate account. If you need more help with Oregon edits, be sure to check in with WikiProject Oregon. Valfontis (talk) 02:17, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
Cedar Mill
editI would be able to help you, but, as said above by Valfontis, you also can contribute on your own (make sure you use the right account, though). Mr.Bob.298 (talk) 04:16, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
