User talk:Whatpriceis

Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because your account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. Also, your username gives the impression that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

If you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization, you may request unblock and a username change. In your reasons, you must:

Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement; and
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; and
Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked; and
Provide a new username.

To do this, 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.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken and in use by another account. You can go here to search and see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If the search returns that no global account with that username exists, that means it is available to be taken.

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. Alexf^(talk) 09:49, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As I owe closer look at restaurants food items/menu prices. I made contributions/corrections to them just like Waffle house locations, 2% of eggs consumption in USA per year and Texas road house 'Willie's Corner' That's it from end. I would request you to unblock my profile so that I may continue to contribute to share my knowledge.

Decline reason:

Your proposed username looks okay. Your edits added spam links. You will not be unblocked to continue this editing pattern. I suggest you read WP:SPAM, WP:RS, and WP:COI. PhilKnight (talk) 07:30, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Subject: Request for Reconsideration and Assurance

Dear PhilKnight,

I appreciate your prompt response and the time taken to review my unblock request. I acknowledge the concerns raised regarding the nature of my edits and the inclusion of spam links.

I sincerely apologize for any unintended violations of Wikipedia policies. I have carefully reviewed the guidelines outlined in WP:SPAM, WP:RS, and WP:COI to gain a better understanding of the community standards. Moving forward, I assure you that I am committed to adhering strictly to these guidelines and contributing positively to the Wikipedia community.

I value the principles of neutrality, reliability, and transparency that form the foundation of Wikipedia, and I am dedicated to aligning my future contributions with these principles. My intent is to share accurate and valuable information based on my experiences as a journalist and writer, especially in the areas of restaurant menus and food-related topics.

If granted the opportunity, I am eager to resume my contributions and ensure they align with Wikipedia's standards. I am open to any additional guidance or recommendations you may have to help me contribute effectively and in accordance with Wikipedia's guidelines.

Thank you for considering my appeal. I am hopeful for a positive resolution, and I assure you of my commitment to maintaining the integrity of the Wikipedia platform.

Sincerely,

Katie Whatpriceis (talk) 20:02, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
