March 2008[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Convergys, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. --Geniac (talk) 14:51, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Convergys. Your edits appeared to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. --Geniac (talk) 16:55, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to Convergys, you will be blocked from editing. --Geniac (talk) 17:25, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to Convergys, you will be blocked from editing. --Geniac (talk) 19:04, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of interest[edit]

You replaced the third-person intro with second-person plural ("we") adcopy. I have not threatened to ban you; I informed you that will be blocked from editing if you continue to be disruptive.
If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

  1. editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
  3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);
    and you must always:
  4. avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see Wikipedia:Business' FAQ. For more details about what constitutes a conflict of interest, please see Wikipedia:Conflict of Interest. Thank you. --Geniac (talk) 15:26, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

The copy I entered was anything but unconstructive. It contained no personal pronouns to suggest conflict of interest. Please explain this block. The company's branding has changed, and so has what they do, so I wanted to update this old information which would make Wikipedia accurate - which was my understanding of the premise of the site. Thank you.

Decline reason:

The text you've been adding so persistently was clearly promotional, not encyclopaedic. See above for details. MaxSem(Han shot first!) 14:19, 11 March 2008 (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.
