User talk:Chrb169

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

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, celebrity or other well-known individual, 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 such groups are generally discouraged from using Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.
 * Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Probably not. See WP:FAQ/Organizations 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, organization, or clients. 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?


 * What can I do now?

If you have no interest in writing about some other topic than your organization, group, company, or product, you will probably not be allowed to edit Wikipedia again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead. If you do intend to make useful contributions about some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:


 * 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, you may appeal this block by adding the text below but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  12:02, 5 July 2012 (UTC)


 * If you don't like my response, you are allowed to ask again. But please don't remove it; it is useful for the next reviewing admin to see what previous reviewers of your request have said.  And why not keep the block notice?  It contains instructions for how to request a username change. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 15:14, 5 July 2012 (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. Daniel Case (talk) 16:06, 5 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Also, you do need to stop removing the response to your previous request to be unblocked. It makes it look as though you are trying to avoid the rules, and I'm certain that isn't the case. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 01:27, 6 July 2012 (UTC)

While it's good to see that you have offered a new username that is not attached to a business, it will be helpful to answer those three questions with details that show "how" you understand or interpret those guidelines. Merely stating that you understand the questions does not impart confidence that you are able to accurately follow them. I would recommend revising your response, then be patient until an administrator is able to check out your request. There is no need to keep adding the unblock template. One is enough. You can just add comments below the unblock request. (Just an FYI: we actually don't delete or remove Wikipedia accounts.) Hope this helps.

 * Thanks for the assistance. Let me try to be more detailed in my responses and please let me know if I need to provide more information. This is how I have understood what I have done wrong and how I should do things differently from now on. Firstly, I picked a username related to a company and not an individual - I have now asked for that to be changed. Secondly and thirdly, I created a page for my company in a shape that it looked like an insertion in a business directory; Wikipedia is not meant for an organization, person or cause for promotion purpuses but rather to present neutral unbiased facts backed up with references. Then it is important that any contribution has to be of a significant meaning - there needs to be a significant mention of the topic for it to be considered and secondary sources need to be referred to. And lastly, I erased previous comments on this page in order to keep it clean but have learned that any additions on this page should be kept. That is a condensed version of what I have learned through this blocking and I hope that helps. Let me know if anything else is needed. Connectblue (talk) 12:03, 9 July 2012 (UTC)


 * And so, since you cannot create articles about any company or business you're involved with, or non-notable articles, what kind of edits are you planning on making as you move forward? (✉→BWilkins←✎) 23:38, 10 July 2012 (UTC)


 * There is a whole range of edits needed on pages pertaining to wireless. For instance, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_technology is redirected to a wireless page which covers wireless telecommunications, but there is no real overview on the wireless technologies that are available and how they interact and presenting differences between these. The http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth_low_energy has several incorrect references and facts and is in need of a clear update (for instance the use of BLE is incorrect and since many use Wikipedia as a reference, incorrect facts circle outside of Wikipedia). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/802.11 needs further references added amongst those to add references to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U-NII and for that matter http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U-NII needs updated references and facts. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth also contain some incorrect facts and is in need of updates along with a better comparison between Classic Bluetooth technology and Bluetooth low energy technology as well as other wireless technologies. The above are the pages that would be initally worked upon if I would get unblocked. The content updates would not be to promote a company but to ensure that the facts and references are correct and that the information is up-to-date. Connectblue (talk) 06:43, 11 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Only one unblock request is necessary at a time. I have declined the others solely from a procedural standpoint; nonetheless, any administrator that takes action on your request will refer to all of them. -- Kinu  t/c 02:33, 28 July 2012 (UTC)

I've accepted your unblock request, contingent of course on the username change being made and staying away from any editing that could be seen as promotional. If you have any questions, you can refer to the links in the welcome message below, or if you need, ask any of us that've talked to you here. Happy editing!
