User talk:Liam Freeman

January 2019
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. -- Dloh cier ekim  (talk) 20:29, 22 January 2019 (UTC)


 * I've renamed your account from The Back Roads. Someone else will review your request. Please review conflict of interest.  331dot (talk) 20:55, 22 January 2019 (UTC)

Liam Freeman: In regards to the editing block, some clarity on where I stand with updating information in wiki-pages (an example being the Mustang GT) with correct and factual information but sourced to our site would be great. Mainly because the citation is needed and we have that information available. Many thanks.
 * Instead of using your own website as a source, it would be better to use where you actually got the information as a source. Again, please review WP:COI. 331dot (talk) 21:08, 22 January 2019 (UTC)

Liam Freeman: Right, so just that I'm on the same page, and I have read that COI - The citations and sources that are on that page linking to outlets such as Motortrend, Road & track, Auto fans are permitted? Though most of this information is available from a press release from Ford. I'm just a tad confused at whether I've missed a step in this or not. Help would be great!
 * Representatives of Motortrend, Road and Track, and Auto fans almost certainly did not add those sources. It is a conflict of interest for you to use your own website as a source. 331dot (talk) 21:21, 22 January 2019 (UTC)

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either: This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.
 * 1) Add four tildes  ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment, or
 * 2) With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button Signature icon april 2018.png located above the edit window.

Thank you. 331dot (talk) 21:21, 22 January 2019 (UTC)
