Information icon Hello, I'm Deb. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.Deb (talk) 12:00, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Lotus Restaurant, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

[edit]

There have been two problems identified 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, 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.

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 this 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 by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Orange Mike | Talk 03:09, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
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 understand the reasons for blocking, however, want to request for the account to be unblocked for the following reasons. The username was chosen almost randomly due to not wanting to use my real name (and having a lack of imagination). As for posting advertising content, I realise that it looks that way, however, I was just trying to contribute to Wikipedia by sharing information about some companies that I know other people were enquiring about, so I wanted to put that information for them on the platform they are most likely to check first.

Decline reason:

The evidence is overwhelming that you do indeed work for Xanda and are violating WP:PAID, WP:SPAM, WP:PROMO, and WP:COI. Yamla (talk) 12:41, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Do you work for Xanda? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 10:28, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

To reviewing admin:

It appears that this user is maybe not being honest. I say this because they almost exclusively edited articles with the Xanda advertising company link at the bottom. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 12:28, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
