 * Hello, I tried to go back to my talk page, but no luck. Could you suggest how I can go to my talk page and post the requested text at the bottom Global Shares Cork (talk) 16:21, 31 May 2022 (UTC)

Are you employed by Global Shares? What articles or topics do you want to edit? 331dot (talk) 16:48, 31 May 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello, yes I'm employed by Global Share but I have no intention to use it to monetize. I just want to set up a page for Global Shares to tell people who we are and what we do.
 * Currently, I don't have a plan to edit other articles as I just hope to set up a page for my company.
 * In the future, I'd like to provide some updated edits to equity management articles because it's my strength. Again, thanks for your time Global Shares Cork (talk) 17:02, 31 May 2022 (UTC)


 * A company isn't entitled to have a Wikipedia article just because it exists. All topics on Wikipedia must be notable - in the case of a company, it must meet the notability criteria for companies. The company must have already received significant coverage in multiple reliable and independent sources to be considered worthy of inclusion. We have no interest in what a company wishes to say about itself; writing about your own company is a conflict of interest. You don't have to be selling anything - simply using Wikipedia to publicize the existence of your company is still promotion, which isn't allowed here. If you have no interest in writing about anything besides your company, then you should find an alternative outlet that permits this type of writing. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 18:11, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
 * thanks! So, if I think the company is notable as it has received significant coverage, what can I do next in order to be listed on Wiki? thanks Global Shares Cork (talk) 18:27, 31 May 2022 (UTC)


 * It is unlikely that an administrator will unblock you unless you, in the short term, agree to edit topics outside your conflict of interest, as a show of good faith to contribute constructively to the project and learn Wikipedia's rules and editing culture.
 * Assuming that you agree to these conditions and make some useful edits, then you would do the following if/when attempting to write about this company:
 * Make the mandatory disclosure as a paid editor on your userpage with the template
 * Review the guide "Your first article"
 * Write your article based on (but not directly copied from) the coverage from reliable, third-party sources, being careful to properly cite these sources with footnotes
 * Submit your draft article for review by independent editors, and heed the advice from their evaluation.

 * Hello, yes. I agree. I hope it can help you unblock me Global Shares Cork (talk) 19:29, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
 * I am not an administrator, so I cannot unblock you. However, when an administrator reviews your request, I'm sure they will take this discussion into consideration. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 19:40, 31 May 2022 (UTC)


 * If you work for Global Shares, you are a paid editor, you do not have to be specifically paid to edit or specifically instructed to edit. is quite correct, you will not be unblocked to, in the short term, edit about your company. You say "I agree" above but I'm not convinced you understand what you are agreeing to. We will want to see you build up a good edit history showing that you understand relevant Wikipedia guidelines, especially about content and sourcing.  It won't be soon before you are permitted to edit about your company- and when you are- you will have to do it indirectly.  If this is okay with you, please tell about some topics that you might edit about, or a specific edit you would make to an existing article. 331dot (talk) 19:58, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Some topics in my minds are: Search engine optimization (SEO), employee share schemes and equity compensation.
 * My edits will be based on reliable sources so I believe when I edit or fixing errors for articles, I'll add in links to those sources to support my edits. When I have a chance to write my articles, I'll also make sure they are not copied from third parties and have no intent to promote myself or any products or any companies. Also my articles will be sufficiently verified. I understand I'm new to Wiki so I believe I'll start with something easier like fixing typos or verifying info with high-authoritative sources. Let me know your thoughts  Global Shares Cork (talk) 20:25, 31 May 2022 (UTC)


 * I understand. There're other topics that I'd like to edit: Fall protection, safety harness and lanyards, safety helmets & hard hats.
 * I believe they are not COI related Global Shares Cork (talk) 20:37, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
 * You will need to make another request for someone else to review. 331dot (talk) 23:42, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Also, please ensure you place your replies at the bottom of the talk page. This is important so that the discussion appears in the correct chronological order. Thanks. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 00:48, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello, Can I ask how to request someone else to review? Global Shares Cork (talk) 10:32, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Exactly as you did your first one. 331dot (talk) 10:49, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello, I didn't request anyone to review initially. So, could you please advise? Global Shares Cork (talk) 10:52, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
 * An unblock request does not request a specific person. It places this page in a category that administrators monitor. If you make another unblock request just as you did your first one, a different administrator will see it. 331dot (talk) 12:50, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Just do again what you did here, but with a newer statement. 331dot (talk) 12:52, 1 June 2022 (UTC)

I've fixed the formatting errors to allow for proper display. For some reason you had a lot of nowiki tags which prevent display; when making a request for future reference, just copy the request template as you see it when viewing this page, then open the edit window and paste, filling in the information. 331dot (talk) 15:14, 1 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Thanks, but the request I fixed is sufficient. 331dot (talk) 15:26, 1 June 2022 (UTC)


 * OK! I opened the edit window and pasted the request template there. Please have a look Global Shares Cork (talk) 15:27, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you. Can I ask what the next steps would be? Waiting for the admin to unblock me? Global Shares Cork (talk) 15:28, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes, another administrator will review this. This may not be immediate, but it will happen. 331dot (talk) 15:39, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your help so far. Appreciate it=) Have a nice day Global Shares Cork (talk) 15:40, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi there, may I ask if there's any timeline that my account can be reviewed by an admin Global Shares Cork (talk) 13:54, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
 * There is no time frame, admins are volunteers here in their free time. 331dot (talk) 13:59, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
