[edit]Hello Tangashe. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Jason Porshe, gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat SEO.
Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are extremely strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.
Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Tangashe. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Tangashe|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}
. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. Jack Frost (talk) 04:46, 26 July 2020 (UTC)

Request reason:
Dear @Jack Foster:, I've attentively reviewed your note, my contributions, and the guide for appealing blocks, alongside other pertinent articles — including those about objectivity and neutrality — and it's completely clear to me now how my contributions, and the page in issue, may have given the appearance that I have an undisclosed financial stake in my contributions and edits to articles, which is, quite frankly, not the case at all. It would be easy to try to make excuses for what happened, but I know my contribution and edits, though made with the best intention, where borne from a place of ignorance and negligence. I should have familiarized myself better with the policies and guidelines before hastily creating a page and making edits. That said, this experience has been incredibly elucidating, and, if given another chance, I commit to ensuring that my edits and contributions will be made with the NPOV in mind.

Decline reason:
You will not be unblocked without explaining your connection with Jason Porshe and Jason Samuel - your contributions here clearly indicate that there is one. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 12:59, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
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 draft article, Draft:Jason Porshe
[edit]Hello, Tangashe. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Jason Porshe".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
