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. Additionally, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for your contributions to Wikipedia, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

If you intend to make useful contributions other than promoting 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. To do so, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the text at the bottom of your talk page, replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason for thinking that the block was an error, and publish the page.

globally renamed Applebaymedia to Dajome068 and unblock discussion
globally renamed Applebaymedia to Dajome068. , could you please clarify about the promotional edits? -- Deep fried okra  User talk:Deepfriedokra 09:35, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Applebaymedia is a graphic design company in Israel and they’ve uploaded and posted  graphics for an Israeli organization as their own. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 09:55, 14 April 2020 (UTC)


 * Thanks. Dajome068, You need to agree not to do that. You will also need to read and heed WP:COI and WP:PAID. -- Deep fried okra  User talk:Deepfriedokra10:00, 14 April 2020 (UTC)

I agree. The organization I uploaded graphics for is a nonprofit which I do pro bono work for. I agree I will not upload graphics for them again. I hope I can still help to edit their wiki page though. If not, that is fine too. I have no interest at all to promote my business here. It was never my intent. /David / dajome068 User:dajome068

Additional question: What do I do if I am the one who has helped them upgrade their logo, and it ideally should be replaced on the wiki page? Apologies for my amateur question, but I am just someone who is helping this non-profit youth movement out, on my free time, and I don't want or need any credit for it. / David / dajome068 User:dajome068
 * Hi, you do seem to have a conflict of interest. Per WP:COI, "Editors with a COI are sometimes unaware of whether or how much it has influenced their editing." Per WP:PAID, "Interns, on-loan staff, and unpaid workers, including volunteers, are deemed to be employees. If they are directed or expected to edit Wikipedia as part of their tasks, they must make a paid-contribution disclosure." Even if you are not editing Wikipedia on their behalf, you do have a close connection to them.
 * You can request edits by clicking the "Talk" tab above any article, then "New section". Using the request edit template, you can ask volunteers to review your proposed changes. The first sentence of such a request should be a description of your affiliation to the article subject. You are required to follow the disclosure requirements of WP:PAID.
 * Please explicitly agree not to edit any article directly if you have a close connection to the subject. Working – even "pro bono" – for an organization is a very close connection. Please explicitly agree not to edit about the nonprofit you have mentioned above. Requesting edits on the talk page, with a proper disclosure, is fine.
 * At the moment, your responses do not yet completely seem to indicate an understanding of WP:COI and WP:PAID. Please alleviate this concern in your next reply.
 * Thank you very much in advance and best regards, ~ ToBeFree (talk) 21:39, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

Hello. Thank you for your further clarification. I now fully understand and specifically emphasize that I agree not to make any direct edits in articles related to any entities I work for, paid or pro bono, this way avoiding any conflict of interest, as per your rules. I specifically agree not to directly edit the Bnei Akiva article; though I might request edits on the talk page, with proper disclosure describing my affiliation to the article subject. Thank you for your patience with me, and for your time in explaining the situation to me. /David / dajome068 User:dajome068
