September 2022[edit]

Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia because your username, SodexoUpdates, does not meet our username policy. Your username is the principal reason for the block. You are welcome to continue editing after you have selected a new username that meets the username policy guidelines, which are summarized below.
Per the username policy, a username should represent an individual and should not: represent a group or organization; be promotional; be misleading (such as indicating possession of special user rights or being a "Bot" account (unless approved for such purposes)); nor be offensive or otherwise disruptive. However, a username that contains the name of an organization and also identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87" is allowed, but not "SEO Manager at XYZ Company". Among others, the guidance on conflict of interest and the policy of paid-contribution disclosure are relevant.
You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our username policy guidelines and create the account yourself. Alternatively, if you wish for your existing contributions to carry over under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:
  1. Adding {{unblock-un|your new username here}} below. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "Email this user" from their talk page.
  2. At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a change of name request.
  3. Your requested new username cannot already be in use. Therefore, please check the list here to see if a name is taken prior to requesting a change of name.
Appeals: If, after reading the guide to appealing blocks you believe you were blocked in error, then you may appeal this block by adding {{unblock|Your reason here}} below this notice. Tiderolls 12:52, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Important[edit]

Your username is the proximate cause of your block, but you have other issues you need to address if you wish to edit here. First, it is Wikipedia policy that an account may not be shared. Each account can only be accessible by one individual. For that reason alone, it may not be possible to unblock this account. Also, if you read Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure, you will understand that an individual that is making edits for their employer is required to disclose that fact. You should also acquaint yourself with Wikimedia's terms of use found here. Beyond that you also need to be aware of Wikipedia's policy regarding editing with a conflict of interest (please see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest.) There are many policies and guidelines that stand in the way of your stated mission. My suggestion would be that, should you have content you think needs to be added or changes made, you make an edit request on the article's talk page. It's simple to do and anyone can help you. You simply need to ask. Tiderolls 12:52, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
