 Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing because of the following problems: 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, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

You may request a change of name and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions other than promoting your business or organization. To do this, first search Special:CentralAuth for available usernames that comply with the username policy. Once you have found an acceptable username, post the text at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked. In your reasons, you must:
 * Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the Paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
 * 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.

Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your reason here" with the reasons you believe the block was an error, and publish the page. --   LuK3      (Talk)   12:50, 24 November 2021 (UTC)

Why is my username inappropriate? I would like to make a Wikipedia page to be able to include everything about the tournaments. MajorcaBeachRugby (talk) 12:59, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
 * See WP:USERNAME, WP:COI, WP:PROMO. We aren't interested in you doing this. If this is your only goal here, this is the end of the line. --Yamla (talk) 13:03, 31 December 2021 (UTC)

Username
So I can’t have my business username but you allow things like amazon to use theirs? How does that make sense? MajorcaBeachRugby (talk) 13:05, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
 * This is an incredibly serious accusation. Please provide specific evidence that Amazon employees have an account named Amazon and are editing their article, in violation of WP:COI. If you do not have any specific evidence of this, I expect you to immediately retract your very serious accusation and apologise for making it. Regardless, we wouldn't allow you to violate Wikipedia's policies, just because someone else is. --Yamla (talk) 13:07, 31 December 2021 (UTC)

Listen, I’m just trying to make a Wikipedia page the same that Amazon has here https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_(company). I’ve never made a page before and instead of slating the shit out of me, how about you actually help. I’ve not meant to promote anything or use a username that’s an account but I don’t understand how I make an account of the company without violating these rules MajorcaBeachRugby (talk) 13:10, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
 * We aren't interested in you making a page about your tournament, and I see you have not retracted your incredibly serious accusation against Amazon. The entire history of contributions to that page are available here and do not consist of even a single edit from anyone with the account name, Amazon. You seem to fundamentally misunderstand Wikipedia. Wikipedia isn't the place for you to promote your tournament. Again, if that is your goal, this is the end of the line. If your very next edit does not provide your specific evidence against Amazon or does not involve you retracting and apologising for your incredibly serious accusation against that company, you will lose access to this page. Enough. Go read WP:USERNAME, WP:COI, and WP:PROMO, which you've repeatedly been pointed to. --Yamla (talk) 13:13, 31 December 2021 (UTC)

Page
I apologise for my accusation. I’m not promoting my account, I’d like to add all the history of it so people know more about it and add relevant links to the page. Not to promote MajorcaBeachRugby (talk) 13:17, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
 * (ec) I think you have several misunderstandings of Wikipedia. Wikipedia does not have mere "pages", it has articles.  Amazon does not have a page here; Wikipedia has an article about Amazon.  Amazon does not exclusively control the article's content and does not own the article.  Articles are typically written by independent editors, who take note of a subject receiving significant coverage in independent reliable sources and choose on their own to write about it, typically without any involvement from the subject itself. A Wikipedia article about an organization must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about it, and not based on any materials put out by it(such as press releases, interviews, the company website, announcements of routine activities, etc.) showing how the organization meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable organization. Not every organization merits a Wikipedia article, even within the same field. Wikipedia is not social media, but an encyclopedia. 331dot (talk) 13:19, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
 * "add all the history of it so people know more about it and add relevant links to the page" is the definition of promotion. We aren't interested in what you want to say about your own tournament, we are interested in what others choose on their own to say about it, like news reports or other independent publications. 331dot (talk) 13:20, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
