[edit]
  • The page you have created is unambiguous advertising or promotion, which is contrary to Wikipedia's content policy, so it will be deleted.
  • Both your editing history and your username indicate that the account represents a business or other organisation or group, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. You should therefore not continue to edit using this username. Also, Wikipedia's guideline on conflict of interest indicate that you should not be editing about a company you are persoanlly involved in. You may like to read that guideline to see why, but essentially the point is that it is difficult for a person directly involved to write obectively, so experience over the years indicates that editing from editors in that situation usually comes across as promotional, even if the person sincerly believes that he or she writing from a neutral point of view. YOu are, of course, very welcome to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business if you are interested in doing so, but if your only interest is in publicising your company then Wikipedia is not the right place for you.

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.
