:I can process such a name change, but I think you may have misunderstood. Changing your name will not mean that you will be permitted to reference yourself by adding links to the "ehairgrowthremedies" site, which appears not to meet our criteria for reliable sources. Please see Wikipedia:Reliable sources (see also: Wikipedia:External links). –xenotalk 21:00, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Not a problem, thank you for assisting. So please go forth with my additional pen name - Michael Parker. We'll see if I can get some magic happening the second time around...

  • Actually, {{user|Michael Parker}} is already registered. You should just keep your current name, which is fine. As I said, no matter your username, you won't be able to link to these self-written articles as sources unless they are published in reliable sources. –xenotalk 20:15, 24 February 2011 (UTC)

Ok, however those articles are published on article directories... Should I link back to the article directory it is published to (EZA)? I always thought Ezines is a highly considered article directory. I have also been accepted to Buzzle & Ehow, however the articles I used as sources aren't on there, as I can't publish my own articles on there if they are already on my own site. The reason I wanted a name change was because I was told that I couldn't provide a link to a site which has my name (pen name) on it, no matter what the relevance is (which in this particular case is highi in my opinion). I simply want to be acknowledged for my personal contribution. I saw on article which was clearly light on the nutritional aspect (non-existant), and I knew my information was correct. Would the linking be credible if I were to provide links to scientific studies carried out on the subject matter? I can, however the articles I wanted to link back to compile all the data together. I hope I'm not complicating things here, I just want to emphasize that I'm not simply spamming or anything, and that all I desire is some recognition.
