April 2024[edit]

Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because your account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. Also, your username gives the impression that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

If you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization, you may request unblock and a username change. In your reasons, you must:

Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement; and
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; and
Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked; and
Provide a new username.

To do this, 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.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken and in use by another account. You can go here to search and see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If the search returns that no global account with that username exists, that means it is available to be taken.

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|reason=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. Red Phoenix ^talk 10:33, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I'm not promoting or getting any profit from this account, just want to update outdated information that is misleading.

Decline reason:

This does not address your perceived violation of WP:COI. Clear promotion, "Keswick Ministries exists to inspire and equip Christians to love and live for Christ in His world." Yamla (talk) 11:39, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's the slogan of the organisation? Is that not what the box is for? I can change it to something else instead - what would be allowed? All I really want it to update the logo and outdated information that's not useful for Wikipedia readers. Keswick Ministries (talk) 12:31, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No, the focus is not for the slogan. See Template:Infobox organization. --Yamla (talk) 12:36, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Okay great, can you unblock me please so I can edit it to something more accurate? Keswick Ministries (talk) 13:58, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No. If you wish to be unblocked, make a new unblock request. Address your violation of WP:COI. Tell us what you'll write about instead. If your only goal is to write about that organization, there's little chance you'll be unblocked. --Yamla (talk) 14:01, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
