Your account has been blocked indefinitely for advertising or promotion and violating the Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of Use, as you did at Draft:Junie Joseph. This is because you have been making promotional edits to topics in which you have a financial stake, yet you have failed to adhere to the mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a form of conflict of interest (COI) editing which involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is strictly prohibited. Using this site for advertising or promotion is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia.

If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, please read our guide to appealing blocks to understand more about unblock requests, and then add the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the end of your user talk page. For that request to be considered, you must:

Confirm that you have read and understand the Terms of Use and paid editing disclosure requirements.
State clearly how you are being compensated for your edits, and describe any affiliation or conflict of interest you might have with the subjects you have written about.
Describe how you intend to edit such topics in the future.

Request reason:

I am sorry I did not disclose that I am an employee of Junie Joseph, if I could add this information to the Wikipedia page I will and we can resolve this issue Black Opal Strategies (talk) 18:03, 12 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

You may tell us what you want to change your username to, or you may make a request yourself at Special:GlobalRenameRequest.

Please tell us how your future edits will comply with WP:COI and WP:PAID. 331dot (talk) 08:41, 16 September 2022 (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.

You need a username of your name at such company. Company names alone are generally not excepted, because they imply shared use. Tropicalkitty (talk) 18:05, 12 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have renamed your account, and also fixed the disclosure template above. Before you submit your next unblock request, one thing I'm not seeing addressed here is our policy on promotional editing. Draft:Junie Joseph was written entirely like a campaign ad. Your next unblock request should explain how you will avoid that being an issue again in the future. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she|they|xe) 06:03, 17 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
