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

Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

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.

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?

You are still welcome to write about something other than your company, organization, or clients. If you do intend to make useful contributions on some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:
 * What can I do now?


 * 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, please see how to appeal a block.  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  10:15, 7 October 2011 (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.. Your only edits have been to your userpage, which is highly promotional. You may be an "authorized user" from the company, but those actions are "not authorized" on Wikipedia. If unblocked and allowed to change your username, what articles to you intend to edit ( talk→  BWilkins   ←track ) 11:11, 7 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the email. Although the OTRS solves the copyright problem, that does not give a green light to recreating what is clearly promotional text. The article has been recreated in identical form by another editor, presumably associated with your company, and deleted again. I'm sure that your company is notable enough for an article, but it needs to be neutral, encyclopaedic and fully sourced to independent verifiable sources. For the reasons above this account is unlikely to be unblocked. If your other editor, whose username is acceptable, wants further guidance on a way forward, I suggest that he/she contacts me on my talk page. Repeated recreation will just result in the article name being protected from recreation. Hope this helps,  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  15:25, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
