User talk:Fishmanconsult

Hello, Fishmanconsult. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you.

Welcome!

Request reason:

Hello! I'm reaching out with a request to unblock my account. The reason for being blocked was due to promotion or advertising purposes, which I understand the reasoning for. I intended to add credible and trustworthy additions to Wikipedia articles to educate health professionals and the general public about health issues, and specifically for COVID-19. If unblocked, I hope to post within the Wikipedia policies and guidelines and avoid posting in an excessively promotional manner. Thank you for reading this, and I hope to see your response soon. ping

Decline reason:

This request doesn't really indicate that you understand the reason for the block or how you will act differently in the future; we need more than general platitudes, you need to demonstrate your understanding by giving specific explanations. In reading you request it sounds to me like you want to continue to do the same thing that got you blocked; as such, there are no grounds to lift the block, and I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 07:56, 10 August 2020 (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.

I think that you will also need to propose a new username. 331dot (talk) 07:56, 10 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
