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

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, website 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.
 * Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Probably not. See Wikipedia's FAQ for 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.
 * Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?


 * What can I do now?

If you have no interest in writing about some other topic than your organization, group, company, or product, you will probably not be allowed to edit Wikipedia again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead. If you do intend to make useful contributions about some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:


 * 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, you may appeal this block by adding the text below but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  13:42, 26 November 2012 (UTC)

There is still the issue of conflict of interest. The deleted article you wrote about your employer was extremely promotional in tone: "the world’s biggest and most content-rich database... the newest scores of Estonian contemporary music... all most important genres from choral works... proficient expertise... operates as a friendly assistant... " It is written from the organization, to tell the world how good and useful it is. It is the sort of thing you might put on EMIC's own website, but it is quite unacceptable as an encyclopedia article, which requires a neutral point of view - no glowing adjectives, no opinions, just plain facts, neutrally stated and referenced to reliable sources.

People close to an organization find it hard not to write in that promotional tone, and that is the reason why editing with a conflict of interest is strongly discouraged. It does not matter that the organization is non-profit - Wikipedia is not a noticeboard for people or organizations to promote themselves.

Please read WP:Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest. If unblocked, do you agree to abide by that in respect of any editing concerning EMIC? JohnCD (talk) 22:47, 27 November 2012 (UTC)


 * I note that in your first, declined, unblock request you use the pronoun "we" in talking about yourself. I understand that English is not your first language, but do you understand and agree that a wikipedia account must be used by one person only?--Anthony Bradbury"talk" 19:44, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
