Your username is the only reason for this block. You are welcome to choose a new username (see below) and continue editing.A username should not be promotional, related to a "real-world" group or organization, misleading, offensive or disruptive. Also, usernames may not end in the word "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account.You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines and create the account yourself. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:
- Adding
{{unblock-un|your new username here}}
below. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "Email this user" on their talk page. - At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
- Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Wikipedia:Changing username.
- Adding
{{unblock}}
below this notice, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 05:49, 17 July 2019 (UTC)

Request reason:
I understand why I was blocked and have changed my username MarkGSA234 (talk) 23:55, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
Accept reason:
Your first edit makes a positive impression, as you did not edit the article directly, but instead have commendably requested a change on the article's talk page instead. The choice of your username also indicates that you never intended to mislead the community; you have been open about your conflict of interest. Before making any further edits, please create User:MarkGSA234, your user page, with the information required by WP:PAID. I will add standardized advice below. Thank you very much in advance and best regards ~ ToBeFree (talk) 01:35, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
- Hi MarkGSA234, before making any further edits, as soon as you are unblocked, please create User:MarkGSA234, your user page, with the information required by WP:PAID.
- Cullen328, is this okay for you? ~ ToBeFree (talk) 00:43, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
- ToBeFree, I have no objection to an unblock as long as MarkGSA234 complies with WP:PAID, WP:COI and edits according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 01:31, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
Hi Guys - This is my first time editing on here so I don't know what WP:PAID means. I'm having trouble navigating this. Can you tell me what that means? I am just looking to provide some current updates to the page since it hasn't been update in 3 years.
