Paid editing
Hello AeconCorporateAffairs. Your edits look as if you are being paid. Paid promotion is an especially egregious type of conflict of interest (COI). Paid articles should be submitted through the articles for creation process. If you are receiving or expect to receive money for your edits, you are  required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post the disclosure on your user page at User:AeconCorporateAffairs. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. If you are being paid, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, please do not edit further until you answer this message. --Hammersoft (talk) 18:00, 18 September 2017 (UTC)

November 2017
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.

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 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 at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Yunshui 雲 水 16:32, 21 November 2017 (UTC)

"consistent and accurate" (not a formal decline, just advice)
Hello, we all strive for consistency and accuracy, but you need to know that we rely on reliable sources unconnected with subjects rather than personal knowledge from those employed by subjects. There are restrictions with paid editing in that "paid editors, are very strongly discouraged from directly editing affected articles, but should post content proposals on the talk pages of existing articles, and should put new articles through the articles for creation process, so they can be reviewed prior to being published." Also, it is sad if your only purpose here is editing for your employer. We appreciate help building the encyclopedia. -- Dlohcierekim (talk) 20:15, 21 November 2017 (UTC)

Mark, with all due respect, I think you either (a) haven't read what's been put to you above, or (b) aren't getting it. Wikipedia is NOT a place for you to promote your company, and we use a neutral tone to describe subjects on this encyclopedia. If you put out an advertisement on television for your company, having it say your company is a "leader and partner-of-choice", that it "provides integrated turnkey services", and that it is a "leader in the construction and infrastructure development industry" would be entirely appropriate. Those are the words you chose to put into the article. It reads like advertising because that is precisely what it is. It comes directly from your website. Which, of course, makes this a problem itself. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. We can not accept material copied and pasted from a website on the Internet without explicit release from the copyright holder of the material. But, we wouldn't accept it anyway as it is so non-neutral and advertising like. We can't allow such material to go into the article. Given your direct conflict of interest and therefore bias (whether intentional or not), it is highly unlikely we would accept edits to the article from you. The best you would be able to do is to make recommendations to the article's talk page and let a non conflict of interest editor decide what to do. The article about your company here is not the property of your company, and you do not get to control what content it has. I hope this clarifies things. If not, please ask questions and we'll be happy to help. --Hammersoft (talk) 13:02, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
