User talk:Saffron Brand Consultants

June 2023

Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because of the following problems: 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, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

You may request a change of username and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization. To do this, first search Special:CentralAuth for available usernames that comply with the username policy. Once you have found an acceptable username, 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. In your reasons, you must:

Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
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.

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. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 15:36, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I'm not a company, I want to create a profile for a person at a company

Decline reason:

You will not be unblocked to do that. If that is your only goal here, this is the end of the line. If instead you wish to write about subject areas for which you have no conflict of interest, convince us you understand what was wrong with your edits, directly address your conflict of interest, and tell us what you plan to write about instead.

I understand there was a conflict of interest between the username of the account and the content I was trying to add/edit. I understand how it could be considered a conflict of interest due to self-promotion/advertising. My goal is to ensure that the information in the Saffron Brand Consultants article is accurate and up-to-date. An article already exists for one of the founders of the company (Wally Olins) and I would like to request an article be written for the other founder (Jacob Benbunan). I fully respect Wikipedia's policies and have no intention of violating them. I've read the help page on how to request an article to be written- would you suggest that as the proper route to take to ensure neutrality? Thank you.

Decline reason:

The Requested Article process is backlogged to the point of uselessness, and any request that you make will most likely not be acted on for some time, if ever. In any event, we won't unblock you to just request that an article be written, nor will we unblock you to, in the short term, edit about your company and/or its personnel. Note that just becuse one founder of the company has an article doesn't necessarily mean that the other founder merits one as well- it's possible that neither of them merit articles and we simply haven't addressed the first yet- I don't know. But what I do know is that to be unblocked you will need to agree to comply with WP:COI and WP:PAID and tell us what edits you want to make in the short term that are unrelated to your company. We will want to see a good edit history showing that you understand relevant Wikipedia content and sourcing guidelines before permitting you to indirectly contribute about your company- otherwise our experience tell us that just allowing you to edit about your company immediately is a waste of time for everyone(including you). If you are not interested in being a more general contributor, this is likely the end of the road. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 19:25, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Saffron Brand Consultants (talk):Firstly, thank you for your information and patience. I've never tried to write/edit a Wikipedia article before, so I appreciate your guidance in this process while I also try and teach myself. I respect the project and aim to be a responsible user with all sincerity. I agree to comply with the agree to comply with WP:COI and WP:PAID. I've been reading in the Wikipedia:Task Center about the small edits I can make unrelated to Saffron Brand Consultants and I believe that I can establish a credible history starting there. In the meantime, I'll put a request through for an article to be written on Jacob Benbunan following the instructions on Wikipedia:Articles for creation page. I've also read it's possible to suggest changes to the Saffron Brand Consultants article but I need to include a mention of the COI in the article talk page or in the edit summary.
