[edit]
Your account has been blocked indefinitely 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 name and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions other than 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|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. Cabayi (talk) 09:38, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

we were correcting factually incorrect information about our company that we know to be incorrect - this is fundamentally not advertising, it is fact-checking and correction

Decline reason:

Your contributions were blatantly promotional. You've violated WP:USERNAME, WP:COI, WP:PAID, and WP:PROMO. Yamla (talk) 22:36, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Request reason:

so how can any company correct factually incorrect information on wikipedia, all company personnel will be blocked using your logic, there must be a mechanism for correction and fact-checking

Decline reason:

All company personnel that do not follow Wikipedia guidelines are indeed usually blocked. Wikipedia is not interested in what a company wants to say about itself, but in what independent reliable sources say about it. Your company is free to describe itself on its own website. If you think that your edits were "correction and fact checking", you have no business editing Wikipedia. To be unblocked, please follow the instructions in the block notice and review the policies indicated. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 08:17, 19 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
