June 2009[edit]

Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended or used for promotional purposes. Please read the following carefully.
Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Because Wikipedia does not allow any form of spam or other promotion of people, products, companies or other groups (even non-commercial or charitable ones). Wikipedia's use for such purposes will result in the blocking of the account involved. Please read Wikipedia:FAQ/Organization and Wikipedia:Conflict of interest for our rules about this.

In addition, user accounts are for individuals only, not for companies or groups or other collective editing. Your username should reflect this. Usernames that appear to be promotional (such as those that make reference to a company or product) violate our username policy and are grounds for blocking.

What can I do now?

If you have no interest in writing about some other topic than yourself, your group, company or product, you will not be allowed to edit Wikipedia again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.

If you do intend to make contributions about some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:

  • Add the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below this message box.
  • Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
  • Tell us what new username you want to use. Please make sure that your new username does not violate our username policy and check that it has not already been taken here.
  • Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the edits for which you were blocked.
  • Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.
If instead you believe that you have been blocked by mistake (i.e., you have not in fact been using Wikipedia for promotional purposes), please write {{unblock|Your reason here}} below this message box and replace the text "Your reason here" with the reason why. See also Wikipedia:Appealing a block for more information. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 18:10, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I understood the reasons for your block and will not repeat the edits for which you were blocked. My new username could be "Oriolo Romano Observatory". I have not absolutely used Wikipedia for promotional purposes. I have not yet experienced to use wikipedia and I just wanted to give information about the Oriolo Romano observatory and generally to give advice on astronomy

Decline reason:

I apologize for any confusion, but (as indicated in the original block message), your username violates the username policy which indicates a username can not be the name of a business, organization, famous person, etc. You also indicate that you have not used WIkipedia for promotional purposes, but you state in the same sentence that you "just wanted to give information about the Oriolo Romano observatory". That's a promotional purpose. Now, if you want to contribute to astronomy articles in general, that's perfectly acceptable, but you will need to use a different username (just let me know what you want it changed to), and you will need to avoid promoting your own observatory. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 18:37, 25 June 2009 (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.

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s):

Please choose a name without observatory in it, so there's no question of you editing on behalf of an organisation
