Your user page
You are not permitted to use Wikipedia user pages for the flagrant promotion of your business, please see WP:UP. I have removed your advertising material there and blanked the page. - Ahunt (talk) 12:24, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

Please stop trying to insert your heavily watermarked photo in this article. Wikipedia is not the place to promote your business in this way. Due to your huge company logo all over the photo this image is not suitable for Wikipedia. If you keep trying to use Wikipedia to promote your business you will be blocked from editing. - Ahunt (talk) 12:30, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you use Wikipedia for soapboxing, promotion or advertising. Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 12:49, 4 November 2014 (UTC) You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abuse of editing privileges. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice:. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Materialscientist (talk) 12:54, 4 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Looks to me more like you're blocked for advertising - and I would add that your user name is also against our policies as it represents a business or organisation. Your user page was an advert. Another editor blanked it, but I've deleted it as that's what we usually do. I would advise thinking up another user name and posting it here as a suggestion so that if you get unblocked you'll be able to go to WP:CHU and get changed to it. As to the picture, I'll leave it to someone more used to images than I am. Peridon (talk) 19:46, 4 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Please note that you can't watermark or add logos to images. If you want to protect your intellectual property then don't upload them to Wikipedia or Commons as they will be edited or just deleted, as the required free licence allows. You lose all control over photos uploaded under these licences. The logos are advertising and we don't allow that here. If you want to be able to get free advertising then you need to start a blog or something. Wikipedia is the wrong venue. We are here to build a free encyclopedia, not to advertise. - Ahunt (talk) 19:50, 4 November 2014 (UTC)
