Hello, I see that my page has been blocked as spam or advertising/promotion. It is neither. It is informative and although mentions three books, it does not solicit sales or operate as a vehicle for sales. There is no solicitation of business intended. I don't believe mentioning a social media account (which does not solicit donations) is a violation of this policy; after all--wikipedia itself is social media.

Here is an excerpt of the policy from the Wikipedia guidelines:

Articles considered advertisements include those that are solicitations for a business, product or service, or are public relations pieces designed to promote a company, organisation, or individual. Wikispam articles are usually noted for sales-oriented language and external links to a commercial website. However, a differentiation should be made between spam articles and legitimate articles about commercial entities or other organisations.

My article does not solicit money for products nor is it promoting a business. Many of your articles mention books--there is NO difference here. Calabrian Fight Club is simply branding for a movement. Nor is it solicitation for a business, as CFC is NOT a business.

Neither does my article propose any social unrest (unlike articles about movements such as "Black Lives Matter", for which there are numerous lawsuits in existence for their various federal and human rights violations). Instead, my article celebrates a movement that is INCLUSIVE, not EXCLUDING. I certainly hope this isn't shadow banning--the reverse social justice warrior movement is quite ferocious about restricting free speech.

I appreciate your efforts in supporting policy. Will you please release my page?
