Request reason:

Dear Administrator NawlinWiki: Initially the page for the D'ark Night Film Festival was created on the Tinygomez user account. An administrator from Wikipedia made the following recommendations which are being included here.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! I just wanted to let you know that I have edited your user page. It is in your user space, but had main article space categories, so was showing up in these categories in the main encyclopedia. I have just added colons to these categories so that you can keep track of which categories the article should be in, but it won't appear there under its current name. If you want to make the article part of the encyclopedia, it should have a title such as D'Ark Night Film Festival (rather than its current title, User:Tinygomez). If this is just a draft right now, feel free to keep working on it in your user space until it is ready. At whatever point you make it part of the encyclopedia, you can just remove the colons from the categories. Note that you don't have to use your main user page for article drafts. You may want to use this page to let the Wikipedia community know a bit about yourself and what your interests are. You can make other pages in your user space that are like sub-pages of your user page; something like User:Tinygomez/D'Ark Night Film Festival. Such pages are a great place to compose drafts and experiment with wiki syntax. Again, welcome to Wikipedia -- hope to see you around! -- KathrynLybarger (talk) 14:16, 2 August 2008 (UTC) Retrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Tinygomez"

I would appreciate an explanation that justifies how deleting the page reconciles with the recommendation of the citation from the above Wikipedia administratorD'Ark Night Film Festival (talk) 17:50, 11 November 2008 (UTC)Tinygomez[reply]

Decline reason:

You have not stated a reason for unblocking. The account has no edit history whatsoever. You can just register a new account for yourself. To avoid further problems, please do not choose the name of a business, product or anything that looks promotional. — Jehochman Talk 18:22, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Request reason:

The reason was stated in the original request. I furnished a copy of the recommendation of a Wikipedia administrator (KathrynLybarger) instructing me on how to edit and deploy the page currently on Tinygomez by creating a separate page using a different account with a name that uses the title "D'Ark Night Film Festival". KathrynLybarger's instructions were followed. In following the instructions, a Wikipedia administrator deleted the page then blocked the account. The reason was furnished yet a Wikipedia administrator (Jehochman)has refused to acknowledge it.

Decline reason:

Allow me to clarify some things:

  1. User:KathrynLybarger is not an administrator.
  2. She did not suggest that you create a new account with the name of your article, but to create the article as D'Ark Night Film Festival.
  3. This account was blocked because it is clearly promotional in nature.

However, after reading your proposed article, I do not think that it meets Wikipedia’s notability guidelines. Also, as someone possibly involved in the group, you should be aware of our conflict of interest guidelines. If you wish to continue working on the article, though, please do so from your original account. Thank you.
