User talk:David-Nivelco

June 2022
Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, club, organization, company, or website – I have blocked this account. Please take a moment to either create a new account, or request a change of username of your current account here. The new username must represent only yourself as an individual and comply with Wikipedia's username policy. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid, you must disclose who is paying you to edit. Please also note that you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87", but not "SEO Manager at XYZ Company". If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text  at the bottom of your talk page. You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text   at the bottom of your talk page. 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. Thank you. Nick Moyes (talk) 08:38, 17 June 2022 (UTC) Dear User. I am the admin who blocked you. Following your account renaming by User:Cabayi, any other administrator may consider unblocking this account if you can explain below precisely what your intentions are for editing here (i.e. which article did you hope to maintain?), and you can assure us that only one person will have access to this account. You should follow our policy requiring you to declare your 'Conflict of Interest' by following instructions given here. You should not edit any existing article about your company directly, but should make a specific request for changes to be made on the article's talk page. See how to do that here: EDITREQUEST. If your plan was to create a completely new article about your company, be aware that it must a) meet our notability criteria for businesses, b) be submitted for review at Articles for Creation. Content that is pure WP:PROMOTION will be deleted and editors may be liable to be blocked permanently. Often, it is far better to let an unconnected editor write about your company - which will eventually happen if the business is genuinely notable. Many thanks, Nick Moyes (talk) 11:10, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Renamed, courtesy ping to . Usually I'd also unblock but given that the user page declares the account is shared "by the marketing department" I'll leave it for further discussion & consideration. - Cabayi (talk) 10:54, 17 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Dear Nick,
 * Thank you for your message. As you may suspect, I'm new to editing on Wikipedia (although I spend a lot of time here reading). To put this conundrum into context, my boss told me to create a Wikipedia article about Nivelco, the company I work for, so I wrote one. Naturally, I did my best not to make it sound like a sales pitch or any kind of promotion, as both my boss and I knew that Wikipedia prides itself on being impartial and objective. I made an user account, the credentials of which I shared with my boss (that is what I wrote it is used by the marketing department), since I'm acting on the company's behalf. However, I'm beginning to sense that behind the myriads of articles on Wikipedia, there is a microcosm of users and rules (one of which was avoiding sharing my real name, hence 'David') to which I must conform before doing any actual editing. Therefore, I'm asking for your patience. Looks like I might have to do some serious reading before posting an article. Thank you for you patience and guidance.
 * All the best,
 * Dan Csongar
