 Your account has been blocked indefinitely 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 name and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions other than 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:
 * 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.

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. 331dot (talk) 09:30, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

I assume that you do not want "your proposed" as part of your username? Note that your username is only one aspect of the block. 331dot (talk) 09:41, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

331dot Correct. Thank you. Nor do I want any web links to EC1Solutions, nor seeking promotion on WikiPedia. The draft contribution is not linked to our business. I was submitting a draft for approval before creating and understanding a userpage Ec1solutions (talk) 09:53, 1 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Someone else will review your request. If you are editing about clients, that must be disclosed per WP:PAID. 331dot (talk) 09:55, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

Simon OCorra is not a client. He is a British immigrant who lives in a nearby town. You will see he is an independent web designer using platforms we would not consider, totally unconnected professionally with ourselves.Ec1solutions (talk) 10:13, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

[User:Yamla|Yamla]] No we dont own the photo. I fully credited the photographer. I was trying to change the ownership (You will see I have tried to change the image properties today. Simon O Corra gave me permission to use the photo. He is not a client, but someone who has very kindly adopted 2 street cats from me. I am a first time user.  Really struggling with lack of help in respect of this.  Your help and guidance is appreciated. I am happy not be be a user. Can I give the draft to someone more knowledgeable than me to submit?Ec1solutions (talk) 10:52, 1 November 2021 (UTC)


 * Who is "we"? --Blablubbs (talk) 19:58, 3 November 2021 (UTC)

My Husband. He gave me the photo. We are both friends of Simon and NIgel. Simon and NIgel have adopted 2 street cats and fostered 1 dog off us this year. Would I be better off going and taking another photo? I just want to make this simple!

Thank you Girth Summit for explaining the issue for me. I thought if my submission was evidence based it was still acceptable. I will just post my research on social media for someone else to develop. As someone whose Grandmother survived the Holocaust, but the rest of our family didnt - I feel Simons works should be better known about. Furthermore nor did I know about the continuing imprisonment of gay jews until the 1970. I hope someone else can do this justice. Ec1solutions (talk) 09:01, 5 November 2021 (UTC)


 * It's not just about being evidence-based, we actually have a policy that prohibits original research. As an encyclopedia, our goal is to summarise what reliable sources already say about a subject, and based most of our content on secondary sources. This is connected to our concept of notability - essentially, if a subject hasn't been written about by multiple, reliably published secondary sources, we don't write the article. And, to do our best to avoid introducing bias in how we cover a subject, we don't write about subjects that we're personally connected to (or, if we do, we need to declare our connection, and go through steps to ensure that our writing is checked by someone unconnected). I hope that makes sense - I can quite understand why you would want your friend to have an article about them, but it's just not the way we do things here. Social media would be a great place for you to put what you've done though, I'd encourage you to do that. Best Girth Summit  (blether)  09:19, 5 November 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for your kind reply. I do now understand the need to declare any connection to the topic/person. However, I am not sure I fully understand about the subject matter, given that I collated information from multiple, reliably published secondary sources, including Wikipedia. What will happen now to the draft submission? Ec1solutions (talk) 13:48, 5 November 2021 (UTC)


 * I don't think you can have read the link about reliable sources. User-generated content, including information on sites such as Wikipedia and IMDB, is not considered reliable. If you think about it, allowing editors to rely on our own articles as sources would become circular - we write stuff, and then use that stuff to support other things we write. The draft won't be deleted immediately, so it's theoretically possible that someone else might work on it, but they would need to find better sourcing than I can see in there at the moment.
