User talk:AhliBankOm

May 2023

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 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. Lourdes 07:47, 30 May 2023 (UTC)

Requested username:

Request reason:

We are new to wikipedia, and are trying to integrate the bank's presence onto wikipedia as it is a historical landmark, for public reference. We have requested a change in username, to not promote an organization, kindly please consider the same and publish the page for the bank. This is only information about the organization for public reference, as in an encyclopedia. AhliBankOm (talk) 08:07, 30 May 2023 (UTC)

Decline reason:

If you wish to use what I assume is your real name as your username, you may, though we advise against it for security purposes. You say "we"- only a single person should have access to this account, and may not share it with others. You seem to misunderstand what Wikipedia is and what we do. This is not a place for people or companies to tell the world about themselves and what they do- that is considered promotional here. Wikipedia does not merely provide information and is not a mere database where existence warrants inclusion. A Wikipedia article about a company must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about the company, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable company. Wikipedia is not interested in what a company says about itself, only in what others completely unconnected with the company choose to say is important/significant/influential about it. Please read conflict of interest and paid editing(which includes employment). You won't be unblocked to, in the short term, edit about your company. If that is your only goal here, this is the end of the road. If you are interested in being a general contributor, please tell what you will edit about that is unrelated to your company. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 08:31, 30 May 2023 (UTC)

I've merged your requests, as only a single request is needed(not separate requests for username and block). 331dot (talk) 08:24, 30 May 2023 (UTC)

Thank you and appreciate your help! Is there any timeline for getting the page unblocked after review, so I can activate the page. AhliBankOm (talk) 08:26, 30 May 2023 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of User:AhliBankOm/sandbox

Your user page, User:AhliBankOm/sandbox, has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appeared to be advertising which only promoted or publicized someone or something. Promotional editing of any kind is not permitted, whether it be promotion of a person, company, product, group, service, belief, or anything else. This is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages — user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources or advertising space. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, or you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. 331dot (talk) 08:25, 30 May 2023 (UTC)

Please read my message above declining your request. In short, you will not be permitted at this time to edit about your bank. If there is nothing else that you wish to do, this is the end of the road. 331dot (talk) 09:12, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
