May 2017[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which 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 or request a change of username.

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 does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page.

You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page. Thank you. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 18:40, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ways to improve Swansea college of art[edit]

Hi, I'm SmokeyJoe. Mais oui!, thanks for creating Swansea college of art!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Swansea_college_of_art really needs more independent references to justify a separate article from Swansea_University#College_of_Arts_and_Humanities

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

I see now that someone thinks that your writing is too closely paraphrased to http://www.uwtsd.ac.uk/art-design/about-the-faculty/ I note that it appears that you used it without attributing it. You must attribute sources you draw information from. I suggest that you instead try adding more selective information from this source to Swansea_University#College_of_Arts_and_Humanities. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 07:27, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
