User talk:Jam Aequitas

Your username
Welcome to Wikipedia. I saw that you edited or created Aequitas Legal, and I noticed that your username, "AequitasLegal", may not comply with our username policy. Please note that you may not use a username that represents the name of a company, group, organization, product, or website. Examples of usernames that are not allowed include "XYZ Company", "MyWidgetsUSA.com", and "Trammel Museum of Art". However, you are invited to use a username that contains such a name if it identifies you personally, such as "Mark at WidgetsUSA", "Jack Smith at the XY Foundation", and "WidgetFan87".

Please also note that Wikipedia does not allow accounts to be shared by multiple people, and that you may not advocate for or promote any company, group, organization, product, or website, regardless of your username. Moreover, I recommend that you read our conflict of interest guideline. If you are a single individual and are willing to contribute to Wikipedia in an unbiased manner, please create a new account or request a change of username, by completing this form, that complies with our username policy. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 14:29, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing, because this account has been used only for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to Wikipedia's content policy. Also, your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group, which is against Wikipedia's policy: an account is for an individual, not a group. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a free advertising service.

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 this 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 this 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 below, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. &mdash; Coffee //  have a cup  //  beans  // 14:31, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

As the person who gave you the initial notice, thanks for changing your username, but it is unlikely you will be unblocked if your intention here is only to directly create a page about your organization; please review the conflict of interest policy as well as the paid contribution policy. Not every organization merits a page in this global encyclopedia; if you truly feel your organization merits a page, there are ways to create one(which can be discussed with you) but you should not do so yourself. 331dot (talk) 14:58, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

Hey, I wanted to set up the page to contribute on a wider range of topics around the legal industry. I think my error was thinking I could set up a company page from external sources. But having known this I will no longer create a company page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jam Aequitas (talk • contribs)
