globally renamed Mintoscomms to Giuliameloni
It is done! Now, we need to know what edits user would make not about their company. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 18:23, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

Whilst I appreciate your efforts to remove the promotional content, "it is unlikely that you will be able to write about this subject non promotionally at first. "Experience has unfortunately shown that most (but not all) people with experience in PR cannot be taught to write a proper article, because they are so completely oriented to writing advertisements or quasi-advertisements that they honestly cannot see the difference between that and a proper encyclopedia article." -- User:DGG. You will need therefore to describe what constructive edits you would make to help build the wonder of the world that is Wikipedia.

I have renamed you, so now we can focus on the not promotional edits. Please place the following at the bottom of your talk page, User_talk:Giuliameloni, filling in "Your reason here " with what constructive edits you would make. . For further guidance/assistance, please place at the bottom of your talk page. Thanks, -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 18:29, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

Hi, I have followed the guidelines for being unblocked and change the username. I understand the reason why I was blocked and I will not post similar content again. I'd like to do general and neutral contributions around the fintech industry and post the following:
