 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

Also: I am NOT being paid for this. If you read the draft I've done so far, I'm being very careful not to sell anything and to just write about the magazine, as the other magazines I mentioned are written about -- based on facts.

Just so you know, I created this magazine. (I also disclosed my COI upfront.) And even after 10 years, we still have not made a profit, so I'm not actually paid. I have several freelance jobs to help me keep the magazine going, as well as donations. I understand you all not wanting people to advertise their businesses, but that's not what I was doing. I even looked at the entries for other magazines and modeled my entry after those -- writing things factually only. I don't really understand why you won't allow primary sources to write about their own things, especially when they are writing them based in fact. I will delete my account and my entry. I'm no longer interested in contributing at all.

Please completely delete my account immediately. The attribution/no deletion policy does not apply to me, since my account is not associated with any articles on Wikipedia. I'd only attempted to write one about the magazine, which has been deleted. I will not be contributing to anything on Wikipedia again and would like to be completely removed from this platform. Thank you.
