User talk:OpenFin Inc

Welcome!

Hello, OpenFin Inc, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as User:OpenFin Inc/sandbox, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Questions or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! GPL93 (talk) 19:46, 13 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of User:OpenFin Inc/sandbox

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on User:OpenFin Inc/sandbox, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
It appears to consist of writings, information, discussions, and/or activities not closely related to Wikipedia's goals. Please note that Wikipedia is not a free Web hosting service. (See section U5 of the criteria for speedy deletion.)

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

April 2020

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. Additionally, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for your contributions to Wikipedia, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

If you intend to make useful contributions other than promoting 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. To do so, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page, replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason for thinking that the block was an error, and publish the page.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

OpenFin Inc (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I was unaware that I shouldn't be creating draft articles in my user sandbox, I didnt realize I need to request to create an article. I know am aware of the proper way to create an article and will follow those guidelines. What I had in my sandbox can be deleted! I will also change my username to.a personal account for myself, scarbone is what I will change it to.

Decline reason:

Sandboxes are for creating drafts- that is not the issue. Please review the policies indicated in the drafts; once you have, you may use the unblock template that allows you to formally propose a new username along with your unblock request(the first one, not the second you used here). In your request please describe what it is you will edit about since you won't be allowed to further edit about OpenFin or anything related to your conflict of interest. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 22:11, 13 April 2020 (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.

Request reason:

Thanks for your response - I tried submitting a new ticket through the unblock ticket request detailing the information you outlined but it will not let me submit another request for 7 days. Is there a way to submit before another 7 days?

Decline reason:

As you have access to your talk page, you must request unblock here. Please use the template included in the block notice. Please read the following
Please 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. Please see below.:

you must propose a new username that meets the username policy
you must confirm that this account is used by one individual only
you must agree to avoid creating or directly editing articles related to OpenFin Inc. (requested edits will still be permitted)
you must agree to abide by the Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of Use and disclose any paid relationship in accordance with the paid contributor policy

(Please read and heed WP:COI and WP:PAID)

you must indicate what areas of Wikipedia you intend to edit in the future

If you have no interest in editing Wikipedia beyond writing about OpenFin Inc., then you will not be unblocked. If this is the case, I recommend you consider alternative outlets.

(Any other admin should feel free to amend these conditions or unblock at their discretion.)

Request reason:

I am requested to be unblocked and my username changed to sc07. I can confirm that this account will only be used by one individual - myself. I agree that I will not create or edit any articles that are related to OpenFin. I agree to wikimedia's terms and conditions. Since I am interested in building my credibility on wikipedia, from my account I will be editing and contributing to articles that I have extensive knowledge with - things related to the finance and tech industry, also personal hobbies of are following trends and culture in the media/entertainment industry so I can on contributing to those as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by OpenFin Inc (talk • contribs) 15:36, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

The request at the bottom of this page remains unanswered since over 9 months. You are welcome to create a new request that answers the question. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 00:23, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi OpenFin Inc (or soon Sc07), thank you very much for the appeal. Regarding personal knowledge, please note that Wikipedia articles must be based on reliable, published sources. Please describe the intention behind, and the meaning of, "building your credibility on Wikipedia". Thank you very much in advance. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 02:06, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the info. I understand that articles must be based on reliable published sources. What I meant by building my credibility is working on as creating content, commenting on someone else's content, tagging/citing content all of which would be based off of reliable, wikipedia approved sources.

That username is very similar to "SC2007", which is a scientific conference according to Google. Could you please pick another? I am happy to help with renaming your account, the username just has to represent you as an individual and comply with the username policy. Thanks! --TheSandDoctor ^Talk 04:45, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
