September 2018[edit]

There have been two problems with this account: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group or a web site, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing.

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, 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 a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In that reason, you must:

  • 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.
  • Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.
If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. 331dot (talk) 16:40, 12 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
This user's request to be unblocked to request a change in username has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request.

Requested username:

Request reason:

I will make sure to never repeat the same mistake of using a username that resembles a business name and have completely understood the reasoning for my account being blocked but kindly ask if it can be unblocked in order for me to write an informative article on SPI International. There is no existing english wiki page on SPI and would like for the english wikipedia users to have access to that information. I have no conflict of interest nor am I doing a paid contribution to Wikipedia.

Decline reason:

I'm sorry, I don't think any truly uninvolved editor would ever think that copy-pasting a company's press release would make a suitable encyclopedia article. Combined with your previous username I find it difficult to believe that there's no conflict of interest. Even if there truly is no COI, you apparently are unable to distinguish between corporate spam and neutral information. Thus it's better for the encyclopedia that you remain blocked.

  • I have globally renamed Spiinternational to Nycreate8, and someone else will review your unblock request. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 17:51, 12 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
