{unblock|reason=Hello, I would appreciate it if you could please unblock my account. I haven't yet had chance to fully understand the processes of Wikipedia and I was simply exploring the 'ins and outs' of this platform. I shall change my name and change the content that I write if you could please ublock me. It's important to educate so others can learn, by simply blocking me without any proper advice I am not able to learn. Blackhawknetworkextras (talk) 15:12, 14 June 2022 (UTC)}
 * Wikipedia is not here to be a learning experience for you. If you want to contribute, it would be helpful if you learned what it is we actually do--but somehow I doubt that you honestly think that Wikipedia is an advertising platform. Drmies (talk) 15:52, 14 June 2022 (UTC)

{unblock|reason=Hello, apologies for not properly conveying what I meant. I was in the process of exploring how to properly format on Wikipedia, using the 'Sandbox' functionality to learn how to properly create headers and citations. What I wrote in the sandbox wasn't information I was going to publish, this was simply place holder / testing infomation that I was using to see how to format my work. I Currently work for through a third party and I have been tasked with updating their Wikipedia page as it is currently being flagged as having content 'written as an advertisement'. I need to edit the infomation to make it more appropriate and remove promotional content and innapropriate external links. As for my Wikipedia name, I was using the name of the company as I thought that was most appropriate, but now in heinsight I understand how this could be seen as innapropriate and a conflict of interest. I would appreciate it if you could unblock my account so I can continue my work to improve the Wikipedia page mentioned above now that I understand more the reasoning for my ban. Kind regards, Karl
