September 2019

[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Dharmalion76. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Ashraf Abdel Baqi have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. Dharmalion76 (talk) 16:10, 23 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please do not add or change content, as you did at Ashraf Abdel Baqi, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. creffett (talk) 18:31, 23 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There have been two problems with this account: 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 or other organisation or group or a web site, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing. Additionally, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for your contributions to Wikipedia, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, 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 a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In that reason, you must:

  • 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.
If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block. To do so, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page, replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason for thinking that the block was an error, and publish the page.

Unblocking

[edit]
This user's request to be unblocked to request a change in username has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without a good reason (see the blocking policy). Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Requested username:

Request reason:

I aim to simply edit the page of Ashraf Abdel Baqi as I am his daughter, the only reason I used the username of his company is because I felt like it would be more official, in no way am I being paid to work on it. I am learning on the job as to what I can and can't do on Wikipedia, I only wish for my father to be better represented online, the only reason I didnt reference is because I was getting my information straight from him, but now knowing I need to cite everything im going around to find sources that back whatever I wrote. the only promotional part was the section about the company he created, and believe me it was not my intention to make it so, im working now on rewriting it in a more objective manner as I only aim to inform. please reconsider my block, I will log on with a personal username this time and try to cite everything as I write

Decline reason:

You have a clear conflict of interest with regard to your father. See WP:COI. You won't be unblocked to write about him. If you wish to write about a subject area for which you have no conflict of interest, follow the instructions above. Yamla (talk) 12:24, 25 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
