Well, if your company is blacklisted, just for one member, do you mean that you cannot edit, unless you have an account? Your Grace Lord Sir Dreamy of Buckland  tm  19:27, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Hmmm..I think I am more confused now than before. I didn't think that the domain being blacklisted would prevent me from having an account. Is this the case? If so, I apologize profusely for any policies that I may have broken. I have read so much in the last few days, that if I did miss that it was definitely not my intention. The abuse was NOT done by us, but by a member of our community of authors. It was determined abuse none the less, causing the domain to be blacklisted. Does this determination have an adverse effect on anyone associate with the company having the ability to contribute and edit as well? I apologize if I am not asking these questions in the correct place. I have searched for the correct avenue to take, and it led here. The other option was a dispute, which I felt was definitely a conflict of interest. I am not requesting to dispute the action of deleting the links that this member used in his articles on Wikipedia, I don't feel they were used appropriately at all, I just want to find out who to contact so that the scope of blacklisting the entire domain is clear. The actions of this one author have now affected over 70,000 other authors with thousands of credible publications, so if there is anything at all that I can do to untangle the web that this one member may have weaved, I would love the opportunity to provide any information that I can. :)

 * Well that did answer my question. If you want to make constructive edits to an article, you are more than welcome. You haven't been breaking any policies. If you wish to change what another editor has done, well, this is a wiki after all. What page did have in mind to change, and on what page did you find my name?

 * You were the most recent addition to the list offering Editor Assistance. So I asked you first. :) OK, so I am not breaking any policies, that eases my mind quite a bit. The issue with the author who caused the company domain to be blacklisted has been resolved, and the articles have already been deleted (David Ben-Ariel), however the domain is still blacklisted. Any edits made or articles contributed will not be in regards to the company that I work for, but I would still like to provide information about the company to the editor that made this decision.  It may have no impact at all on the decision, but my intentions are not to persuade and are only to inform.  Is there a discussion or talk page that I should be using for this specific issue?  --Andrea Wall 21:37, 19 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Well, if you just want to put information out, onto an article, go ahead! after all be bold!. Your Grace Lord Sir Dreamy of Buckland   tm  00:36, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
