Welcome!
Welcome to Wikipedia, DKFILMS! Thank you for your contributions. I am ToBeFree and I have been editing Wikipedia for some time, so if you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. You can also check out Questions or type at the bottom of this page. Here are some pages that you might find helpful: Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes ( ~ ); that will automatically produce your username and the date. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! ~ ToBeFree (talk) 12:27, 6 October 2018 (UTC)

Disclosure by ToBeFree
After discussion with DKFILMS, I have recommended them to explain on their user page that:


 * ...the original account has been blocked in 2013,
 * ...there is no e-mail or password access to the old account anymore,
 * ...the new account is not meant to evade the 2013 "indefinite" block,
 * ...they would like to use this account to request being unblocked.

Next steps
Before doing anything, please wait until the private request has been answered. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 12:35, 6 October 2018 (UTC)


 * The username is that of a company and is not acceptable. A change of username would be required. That said, the previous account(s) have been blocked for being spam-only, and to me it seems this is just the next incarnation of this user attempting to engage in self-promotion, an effort that has been ongoing for about five years. When I spoke to them in the IRC help channel, they were once again trying to create Dushyant Kapoor, stopped only because the page has been salted. Thus I see no indication that having this user edit Wikipedia would improve the encyclopedia. Consequently, I'll block this account too. If they have an interest in improving Wikipedia in ways not related to themselves, they're welcome to request a review of the block. Huon (talk) 12:52, 6 October 2018 (UTC)

October 2018
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.

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than 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 by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Huon (talk) 12:54, 6 October 2018 (UTC)
