[edit] Millennium Pharmaceuticals

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Millennium Pharmaceuticals. Your edits appeared to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

You seem to misunderstand the nature of Wikipedia. It is an encycopedia, not a place for free advertising. Any information in an article should be factual, and capable of being verified from independent reliable sources, such as reputable newspapers, published books and peer-reviewed scholarly articles. It is certainly not a place for all of that puke-inducing marketing hype like "innovative product candidates", "robust clinical development pipeline", "a vision that still drives the company to this day", "breakthrough products that will fundamentally change the practice of medicine", "top-notch science and business teams" etc. etc. etc. Phil Bridger (talk) 15:27, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

NOTE: This has since been updated and the "puke-inducing" text, as Phil so eloquently put it, has been removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Millenniumpharmaceuticals (talk • contribs) 6 March 2008.

[edit] Block

This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia, because of concerns that the chosen username may not meet our username policy.
This is often not a reflection on the user, and you are encouraged to choose a new account name which does meet our guidelines and are invited to contribute to Wikipedia under an appropriate username. If you feel this block was made in error, you may quickly and easily appeal it - see below.

Our username policy provides guidance on selecting your username. In brief, usernames should not be offensive, disruptive, promotional, related to a 'real-world' group or organization, confusing, or misleading.

If you have already made edits and wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name you may request a change in username which is quick and easy. To do so, please follow these directions:

  1. Add {{unblock-un|your new username here}} below. This is possible because even when you are blocked, you can still edit your own talk page.
  2. At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
  3. Please note, you may only request a name that is not already in use. The account is created upon acceptance – do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change since we can far easier allocate your new name to you, if it is not yet used. Usernames that have already been taken are listed here. For more information, please visit Wikipedia:Changing username.
Last, the automated software systems that prevent vandalism may have been activated, which can cause new account creation to be blocked also. If you have not acted in a deliberately inappropriate manner, please let us know if this happens, and we will deactivate the block as soon as possible. You may also appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|your reason here}} below or emailing the administrator who blocked you.
