May 2019

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. 331dot (talk) 09:38, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

@331dot, This is my first time trying Wikipedia and i don't understand why i got blocked, Can you please help me understand to avoid this in the future ? It is not for advertisement nor promotion, it is a youth global even like One Young World and EcoSoc

Help me!

Please help me with my account, The reason mentioned was due to Promotional reasons but this is not true, I was providing educational information on an event just like many other pages on Wikipedia on similar events like Misk Foundation, One Young World and others. My purpose from this article is purely to enrich and empower young people

This user is asking that their block be reviewed:

Pakinam Ashraf (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

---

Request reason:

It is not a promotional account

Notes:

• In some cases, you may not in fact be blocked, or your block has already expired. Please check the list of active blocks. If no block is listed, then you have been autoblocked by the automated anti-vandalism systems. Please remove this request and follow these instructions instead for quick attention by an administrator.
• Please read our guide to appealing blocks to make sure that your unblock request will help your case. You may change your request at any time.

Administrator use only:

If you ask the blocking administrator to comment on this request, replace this template with the following, replacing "blocking administrator" with the name of the blocking admin:

{{Unblock on hold |1=blocking administrator |2=It is not a promotional account |3 = ~~~~}}

If you decline the unblock request, replace this template with the following code, substituting {{subst:Decline reason here}} with a specific rationale. Leaving the decline reason unchanged will result in display of a default reason, explaining why the request was declined.

{{unblock reviewed |1=It is not a promotional account |decline = {{subst:Decline reason here}} ~~~~}}

If you accept the unblock request, replace this template with the following, substituting Accept reason here with your rationale:

{{unblock reviewed |1=It is not a promotional account |accept = accept reason here ~~~~}}

(edit conflict) Please read the block notice. Your username cannot be that of your event per the username policy; your username must indicate that a single individual exclusively operates this account(your real name is not required, just something individualistic).

"Providing educational information" or "enrich and empower young people" is considered promotional on Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not just for providing information. As an encyclopedia, Wikipedia summarizes what independent, third party reliable sources with significant coverage state about article subjects that meet Wikipedia's special definition of notability(for events that is written at WP:NEVENT). Wikipedia has no interest in what a subject(or its representative) wants to say about itself. In addition, you have a conflict of interest in editing about your own event; you may also need to comply with the paid editing policy(even if you are not paid cash money).

Other similar events meriting articles does not automatically mean your event merits one too; each article is judged on its own merits based on coverage in independent reliable sources(as stated). Please read WP:OSE. Articles on other similar events were likely not written by event representatives, but by independent editors who noticed coverage of the event in reliable sources; ideally, this is what Wikipedia is interested in.

To be unblocked, please follow the instructions in the block notice, proposing a new username and telling what you will edit about if unblocked because it is unlikely you will be unblocked to further edit about your event. 331dot (talk) 10:20, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

"Help me" and an unblock request simultaneously is not necessary; someone else will review your request. 331dot (talk) 10:21, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

Thank you for explaining, I was not aware of that since this is my first time using Wikipedia

Requested username:

Pakinam Ashraf (talk · account availability check · rename user)

Request reason:

The detailed clarification made me understand, I though that the user name should be with the name of the article that i am writing, Further citation in addition to references are going to be added on the article in addition to adding more of my pictures to make sure that there is no violation in the copy rights. Such event is very rich and is going largely over the last few years, have no information on Wikipedia on it is such a loss so that is why i wanted to contribute with adding what i can when i participated in it. I would like even to protect the information after being done to avoid any violation to the content itself later on, since all the information I provide are verified.

Articles are not protected merely to prevent others from editing them; they are only protected as needed due to vandalism or disruptive editing. You can't prevent others from editing any article about your event. As I've said, you won't be unblocked to edit about your event. If you just want to tell the world about this event, you should use social media or a website owned and operated by the organizers of this event. 331dot (talk) 10:43, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
