User talk:Avivatech

I've deleted your user talk page (this page) as you are abusing it by using it to advertise. Wikipedia talk pages are for discussions, not advertise. Moreover, it was a verbatim copy of http://www.avivatech.com/, which violates [[WP:COPYVIO|Wikipedia's strict policy on copyrights]. Worse, you also regurgitated this onto an unrelated page, and in the process blanked the valuable content there. You must immediately stop using Wikipedia for advertising; if you persist, you'll be blocked from editing. -- [[User:Finlay McWalter|Finlay McWalter]] • Talk 12:50, 10 July 2010 (UTC)

On reviewing your edits, you already did this last year on User:Avivatech. Further, your username matches that of the company you're promoting. So I've blocked you from editing.

Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended or used for publicity and/or promotional purposes. Please read the following carefully.

Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements, and using Wikipedia for promotion. Wikipedia has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but it is considered inappropriate for such groups to use Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.

Probably not. See WP:FAQ/Organization for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, or organization. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.
 * Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?

You are still welcome to write about something other than your company or organization. If you do intend to make useful contributions on some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:
 * What can I do now?


 * Add the text on your user talk page.
 * Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers 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 this reason, you must:
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the 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, please see how to appeal a block.
