User talk:ChrisHall1979

There have been two problems with this account: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group or a web site, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing. Additionally, If you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for your contributions to Wikipedia, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In that reason, you must:

Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block. To do so, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page, replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason for thinking that the block was an error, and publish the page.

Please unblock my Wikipedia account

I appear to have had my account blocked. I do not believe I should have it blocked as I am trying to provide a full history and details on an author I am passionate about. My next addition is to add the anthologies that author Guy N Smith has been included within onto the Wikipedia page. I am unable to add this information whilst blocked.

I appear to have been blocked by user Alexf without any obvious ways of corresponding with him/her in order to confirm that my additions are legitimate.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

Adding valid information and lists of publications which the author Guy N Smith has been published within. This is from in-depth research and collecting of the author's work over a number of years. DLS Reviews (talk) 11:48, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Communication is done on this page, your user talk page. Every user has one for this purpose. Regarding your block, you have not proposed a new username as instructed in the block notice; usernames cannot be that of a website per the username policy. Your username must indicate that an individual is operating this account(real names are not required). Just going by your edits, you appear to have a deeper relationship to Guy N. Smith than merely being passionate about him; you will need to go into more detail about this. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 12:12, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Thanks for coming back to me regarding my request. I'm more than happy to change my username if required. I could change it to ChrisHall1979 if this is acceptable, or whatever (I don't really care). However, I note a Wikipedia user has reverted back all of my edits to the Guy N Smith page, putting some of the information back to showing out of date information (such as Smith's latest novel being Carnage which is no longer true - his latest novel is The Reaper. It also incorrectly shows a collection of short stories as a single story in an anthology, and the user has removed the listing of Smith's latest collections for some reason. Therefore due to these changes the page on Guy N Smith is now once again out of date, includes incorrect information, and contains less information on the author. I would suggest this is reverted back to how I put the information, which is correct and up to date. I was also planning to add in the missing titles, dates and information on the chapbooks that were missed off. But if you would rather the information on the page be incomplete then I guess that;s ok. I was just trying to share the information I had.

Decline reason:

This shows a profound lack of understanding of, and unwillingness to abide by, WP:COI. Additionally, you have evaded your block, violating WP:EVADE. Put simply, you won't be unblocked to write about Guy N Smith, and you won't ever be unblocked while you engage in block evasion. Yamla (talk) 19:31, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have globally renamed DLS Reviews to ChrisHall1979, and someone else will review your unblock request. I note that in your current request you have not addressed your relationship to Guy N. Smith, as you were asked to do when your previous one was declined, and you are unlikely to be unblocked unless you do so. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 14:04, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Block evasion

User has engaged in block evasion as 86.146.250.93 and has shown a continued lack of understanding of WP:COI. --Yamla (talk) 19:29, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
