Notice
Hello, Canary Media. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Conflict of interest);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Spam);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. 47.227.95.73 (talk) 20:52, 5 April 2023 (UTC)

 Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because of the following problems: 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, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

You may request a change of username and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization. To do this, first search Special:CentralAuth for available usernames that comply with the username policy. Once you have found an acceptable username, post the text  at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked. In your reasons, you must: Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text  at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your reason here" with the reasons you believe the block was an error, and publish the page. Lourdes 09:11, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
 * 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.

There is a specific template to use to make a request that also proposes a new username, it is the first described in the block notice, not the second you used here. But there's no point in doing that unless you are prepared to be forthcoming with us. 331dot (talk) 15:35, 6 April 2023 (UTC)

You are blocked, not banned, there is a difference. If you are attempting to request unblock, you need to remove the word "reviewed" from the template or it will not be seen. I could fix it myself, but your statement doesn't really seem to be requesting unblock and you still don't seem to concede you have done anything wrong here. The rules are very clear and have been pointed out to you. You clearly have some association with Canary Media. If you are employed by Canary Media(as I think), the Terms of Use require that to be disclosed, this is mandatory and not negotiable. Your edits were not "minor updates" but spamming links to Canary Media. You won't be permitted to do that or edit about clients of Canary Media, so we will need to know what edits you intend to make instead. This isn't that hard. 331dot (talk) 19:55, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
