Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "XyzDisplays", may not comply with our username policy.

Examples of usernames that are not allowed include "XYZ Company", "MyWidgetsUSA.com", and "Foobar Museum of Art".

Please also note that Wikipedia does not allow accounts to be shared by multiple people, and that you may not advocate for or promote any company, group, organization, product, or website, regardless of your username. Please also read our paid editing policy and our conflict of interest guideline. If you are a single individual and are willing to contribute to Wikipedia in an unbiased manner, please request a change of username, by completing this form, choosing a username that complies with our username policy.

[edit]

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, 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 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 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. Bbb23 (talk) 19:27, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Talk: xyzdisplays.com

[edit]

As a brand new user, it appears that i have inadvertently violated a number of wikipedia rules. My sincere apologies. This is all very new to me. My first violation was my username. I have requested a change based on what was suggested as allowable. The second was with respect to the page I tried to create for xyzDisplays.com. My intention was to create an informational page. I copy / pasted from the company overview which appears to have been too promotional. I would like to correct this error and provide more history and factual information for the business. What can i do next if anything? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yelena at xyz (talkcontribs)

  • While possible, it is quite difficult to write about things with which you are closely affiliated. Please see our conflict of interest guidelines. Furthermore, editing on behalf of your employer is strongly discouraged here and requires compliance with our WP:PAID policy. Also, copying/pasting content from ANYwhere on the Internet without release under a free license is not acceptable here, and if it is copies from a company's website/marketing materials it is unlikely we could use it anyway, even with permission, as it would likely violate WP:NEUTRAL. If your company is notable, someone will write an article about it eventually. --Hammersoft (talk) 00:03, 29 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
