User talk:Cmulvenna

Welcome!
Hello, Rachelbloomies, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you created or edited was Rachel Bloom, which appears to be an article about yourself. Creating an autobiography is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians—as this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. We require individuals to meet Wikipedia's definition of a notable person to accept articles about them.

The page you created about yourself may well be deleted from the encyclopedia. If it is deleted and you wish to retrieve its contents, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page. If your contributions to an existing article about yourself are undone and you wish to add to it, please propose the changes on its talk page.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome! — Jeff G. ツ 17:33, 14 December 2022 (UTC)

 * Hi Jeff, this article is not about myself. I have a fan page for Rachel via Instagram entitled, @rachelbloomies. I have lots of knowledge about the subject of this article (obviously) and wanted to make updates. Please advise on how to get my work reinstated. It is properly cited and referenced. Thanks!

 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. Cullen328 (talk) 20:18, 14 December 2022 (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.

 * Your username incorporates r-a-c-h-e-l-b-l-o-o-m, the name of a well-known person. Someone legitimately thought that you could be this very person, and I thought that it's possible too based just on history and recent changes. Using such a handle is apparently fine on Instagram, but that's completely irrelevant on Wikipedia. That's one very major reason for you not to edit Wikipedia with this username. But, putting this aside, the immediate reason for your block is that it looks like you are furthering the aims on your fan page on Wikipedia. It actually doesn't matter that you don't get paid for running a fan page. The aims of Wikipedia are to build an encyclopedia, and these aims are not compatible with promotion motivated by pop-cultural adoration. —Alalch E. 20:42, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Ok, then kindly let me change my username and I will remove any and all reference from social media. I only did that to show that I am knowledgeable on the subject and NOT for promotion. Rachelbloomies (talk) 20:52, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
 * I cannot edit my user talk page to remove the social media link until you unblock me. Please advise. Rachelbloomies (talk) 20:55, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Please advise on whether I will be unblocked or if all my work is lost and I need to start over again. There was no bias in the factuality in my additions that were also properly sourced. Doesn't appear to be a very friendly network for new users Rachelbloomies (talk) 21:04, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
 * All of us administrators are volunteers, so you will have to be patient.
 * I can assure you that the social media link has already been removed.
 * What sort edits do you intend to make, to what articles, if unblocked? Please be as specific as possible. SQL Query Me!  23:45, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the username change. I intended to update the wikipedia pages of the Crazy Ex-Girlfriend cast starting with Rachel Bloom. Again, nothing with bias or promotional intention. The page is just very outdated and missing a lot of information. I tried to follow the formatting of similar wiki pages for example Amy Schumer. Cmulvenna (talk) 01:04, 15 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Look, at the end of the day, I am trying to offer my expertise in expanding the Wikipedia articles of pages that interest me. I am obviously new at this and am willing to learn by trial and error. As you can see from the copy I tried to add to my first page, none of it was malicious or of ill intent. If things are removed by admin while I am editing I will read the feedback and adjust accordingly and/or discuss it on the talk page which I just have learned about today. Cmulvenna (talk) 01:17, 15 December 2022 (UTC)
 * In my experience, it is unlikely that you will be unblocked to edit the article that led to your block. Are there other articles you'd edit? If so, which, and what edits would you make - again being as specific as possible.
 * In case you weren't aware, your block applies to you - as a person, and not just this account. You stated "Please advise on whether I will be unblocked or if all my work is lost and I need to start over again.". "Starting over" without first being unblocked would likely be considered block evasion, and will be caught quickly. Behavior of this nature will likely make it even harder to get unblocked. SQL Query Me!  02:23, 15 December 2022 (UTC)
 * I thought the issue was with my username and the fact I put my instagram username in bio? I explained why I did that and why I made my username what it was. I now understand that both those things were not part of guidelines so I requested an adjusted username to the first letter of my first name and my full last name. I am attempting to be as transparent as possible. So why wouldn't I be able to update the article I was previously working on? It is outdated. Do you not want wikipedia to be updated with the most current information? Additionally, I did not attempt to evade blocking nor did i make a new username. That was in reference to whether or not my username could actually be changed and not an intention to evade anything. Cmulvenna (talk) 02:39, 15 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi @Frietjes I am sorry but I can see your comment in my notifications but not the actual message on my talk page so I am replying here. Hope that is ok. In terms of "convincing you," I can promise you all that my intentions are to update the wikipedia pages of subjects that interest me. The two I was going to start with were Rachel Bloom and the television show Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. The edits will be minor in nature intended just to update any outdated information which will be properly sourced and cited. As I said above, I am trying to offer my expertise in expanding the Wikipedia articles of pages that interest me. I am obviously new at this and am willing to learn by trial and error. As you can see from the copy I tried to add to my first page, none of it was malicious or of ill intent. If things are removed by admin while I am editing I will read the feedback and adjust accordingly and/or discuss it on the talk page which I just have learned about today. I am actually a pretty delightful person when you get to know me with a background in writing so I would love the opportunity to be unblocked and update Rachel's page. I understand that it will be trial and error and promise to take feedback very seriously as I make it up to date. Thanks in advance! Also tagging the admin who were assisting me before @Alalch E.@Cullen328@SQL . Cmulvenna (talk) 17:41, 15 December 2022 (UTC)
 * I forgot to include, absolutely no promotion is intended. I am very sorry for getting off on the wrong foot with that, something above said this isn't Instagram, and they are right it is absolutely not and I should have done more thorough research on the ins and out of wiki. I intend to update only with factual and non bias information with no promotional intent. I am also happy to provide a manuscript of the updates I want to make to Rachel's page before hand for your review and discussion. Cmulvenna (talk) 17:46, 15 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi I am just following up on this ? Regards Cmulvenna (talk) 00:26, 17 December 2022 (UTC)
 * I am sorry, but you are just going to have to wait your turn - it could be days, weeks, or even months. The admin workload on Wikipedia far exceeds the number of admins to do it. All since admins are volunteers, and they only have as much time as they are able and willing to contribute. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 04:05, 17 December 2022 (UTC)
