User talk:Chamranhotel

December 2011
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the username you have chosen (Chamranhotel) seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of a group, company or website.

There are two issues with this :
 * 1) It is possible that you have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, you must exercise great caution when editing on topics related to your organization or adding links to its website.
 * 2) Your account cannot represent a group of people. You may wish to create a new account with a username that represents only you. Alternatively, you may consider changing your username to avoid giving the impression that your personal account is being used for promotional purposes.

Regardless of whether you change your name or create a new account, you are not exempted from the guidelines concerning editing where you have a conflict of interest. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. The article in question is Chamran Grand Hotel. Thank you. bonadea contributions talk 15:19, 19 December 2011 (UTC)

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Chamran Grand Hotel. While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. bonadea contributions talk 16:00, 19 December 2011 (UTC)

This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because your username, Chamranhotel, does not meet our username policy. '''Your username is the only reason for this block. You are welcome to choose a new username (see below).''' A username should not be promotional, related to a "real-world" group or organization, misleading, offensive, or disruptive. Also, usernames may not end in the word "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account. You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:
 * Adding on your user talk page. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "E-mail this user" on their talk page.
 * At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
 * Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Changing username.

If you feel that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. Daniel Case (talk) 16:09, 19 December 2011 (UTC)

{{unblock-un reviewed | 1=nazanin | decline=Since you have now created a new account which does not violate Wikipedia's username guidelines {Moghadam), there is no need to unblock this account, and any unblock request should be made through the new account. Although the blocking administrator has chosen to give a block notice saying "your username is the only reason for this block", that is not, in fact, the only issue, as your editing has been purely advertising, which is contrary to Wikipedia's policy. You are not likely to be unblocked unless you make it clear that your intention is not to continue in the same way, but to do a different kind of editing|sig=yes JamesBWatson (talk) 21:51, 19 December 2011 (UTC)}}

Here are a few key questions:
 * Do you understand that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and not a business directory?
 * Do you understand conflict of interest?
 * Do you understand that to be considered for an encyclopedia article, the subject must be notable?

You are currently blocked because your username appears directly related to a company, group or product that you have been promoting, contrary to the username policy. Changing the username will not allow you to violate the 3 important principles above. ( talk→  BWilkins   ←track ) 16:56, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
