[edit]
Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because of the following problems: 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, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

You may request a change of username and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization. To do this, first search Special:CentralAuth for available usernames that comply with the username policy. Once you have found an acceptable username, 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 your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked. In your reasons, you must:

  • Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
  • 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.
Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your reason here" with the reasons you believe the block was an error, and publish the page. Acroterion (talk) 11:30, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

My intention was never to advertise or promote Insight leadership. I now understand the reason why the account was blocked and I have no intention to make such an edit in the future. Ignorance is never an excuse however, I was unaware at the time that I was not in compliance of the rules. I apologies and will ensure to keep up to date and in compliance with the rules in the future. InsightLeadership (talk) 13:20, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Given the lack of further discussion. I personally would imagine that a paid-editor disclosure is necessary, but also I'd like an unblock request to demonstrate a couple of examples of how you'd edit - a couple of paragraphs and some suitable sources (I'd suggesting making the unblock request and then post the example(s) as a separate edit below Nosebagbear (talk) 00:10, 15 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

What edits do you intend to make instead? 331dot (talk) 13:29, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I intend to make edits focusing on the life of Dominic Brittain. Not to promote Insight Leadership but rather to build a profile of Mr Brittain who was a prominent figure in the world of bomb disposal in Hong Kong. InsightLeadership (talk) 13:35, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia does not have "profiles", not a single one. Wikipedia has articles, typically written by independent editors wholly unconnected with the topic. If you want to write a profile, this isn't the place to do so. Any article about Mr. Brittain must summarize what independent reliable sources with siginficant coverage have chosen on their own to say about him, showing how he meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable person. The sources you offered in the draft seem to be interviews with him or announcements of his activities, which does not establish notability. You won't be unblocked to, in the short term, write about Mr. Brittain. Is there anything else you wish to edit about as a more general contributor? What is your association with InsightLeadership? 331dot (talk) 13:41, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If I might add, please read and heed WP:COI and WP:PAID. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 20:28, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
New article creation is stunningly hard. If your intent is to build the encyclopedia, you might want to gain experience doing other things. Best -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 20:32, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
