User talk:Blueladder

February 2020
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. Additionally, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for your contributions to Wikipedia, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

If you intend to make useful contributions other than promoting 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. To do so, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the text at the bottom of your talk page, replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason for thinking that the block was an error, and publish the page.

 * I see that the new account was created one minute before the old one was blocked, so it can't have been created in order to evade the block, and the explanation given for creating it seems perfectly likely. (Incidentally, it is in fact possible to change the name of an account, rather than creating a new account, but new editors don't necessarily know that.) I would be willing to support unblocking if you were to show that you understand the conflict of interest guideline and will abide by it. (Note: "show" that you understand it, not just "say" that you do. Experience over the years has shown that blocked editors who just say things like "I understand what I did wrong and won't do it again" more often than not actually don't understand, and will do it again; for that reason you should actually explain what you will do differently than before.)

 * I have thoroughly read the conflict of interest guideline and will abide by it. I will operate under an approved username, once my current username change request is approved, that does not conflict with Wikipedia guidelines, and I will edit only articles, in which I do not have a conflict of interest. If I do for some reason have a COI, I will follow Wikipedia's guidelines to ensure I am following community rules.


 * I have renamed your account from "Ludman Industries LLC" to "Blueladder". JBW (talk) 20:27, 3 April 2020 (UTC)


 * , you placed this block, citing 3 reasons: (1) Promotional username, which has now been dealt with; (2) promotional edits, which the editor has now undertaken not to continue, and (3) block evasion, which, for the reasons I gave above I think was not so. That means that none of the reasons for the block now still applies, so there appears to be no basis for keeping the block. Do you know of any reason why the block shouldn't be lifted?
