Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Sean Plott has been reverted. Your edit here to Sean Plott was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJztfsXKcPQ) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. music or video) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 07:11, 2 November 2018 (UTC)

There have been two problems with this account: 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 or other organisation or group or a web site, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing.

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth 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 that reason, you must:
 * 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.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Longhair\talk 23:00, 12 November 2018 (UTC) --UTRSBot (talk) 23:46, 12 November 2018 (UTC)

I do work for 3StrakGames. Sorry, I didn't think it was a problem to create a sandbox page with it. I thought it was only for my own practicing, and not viewable to others. I won't use the account to create any kind of page for it.
 * I have globally renamed 3StrakGames to HavocVulture21, and someone else will review your unblock request. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 10:18, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Do you work for or represent 3Strak Games? 331dot (talk) 19:03, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you. You will also need to comply with WP:COI and WP:PAID and agree to conduct yourself accordingly(in short, no direct edits about anything about the company or its products, though you may make edit requests). , do you have any additional concerns? 331dot (talk) 22:17, 13 November 2018 (UTC)

Yea, I will comply with WP:COI and WP:PAID

I've done my best to comply. Should I just delete my Wiki account?
 * Just FYI pings ("replyto") only work when you sign your posts with ~ . Accounts cannot be deleted; if you don't wish to use it anymore, simply stop using it.  I will get Longhair's attention to see what they think. 331dot (talk) 10:31, 20 November 2018 (UTC)


 * Sorry I was deep in deletion mode (not spam, general tidying up :-)... I have no issues with this editor now that the policies of promotional editing and conflict of interest have been brought to their attention. I apologise if blocking has caused distress to you however promotional editing (which many call spam) is a huge problem for Wikipedia and we do our best according to website policy to keep the balance manageable and the site free of, well, spam. Blocking is the only way to bring the matter to a prompt resolution. All is good my end and I wish this editor well. Wikipedia is a large place... have fun learning and editing here. -- Longhair\talk 10:58, 20 November 2018 (UTC)
