Speedy deletion nomination of User:UltraKravMaga/sandbox
A tag has been placed on your user page, User:UltraKravMaga/sandbox, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be advertising which only promotes or publicises someone or something. Promotional editing of any kind is not permitted, whether it be promotion of a person, company, product, group, service, belief, or anything else. This is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages — user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources or advertising space. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. Whpq (talk) 13:43, 16 January 2019 (UTC)

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. Jimfbleak - talk to me?  13:45, 16 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Who is "we"? Your new username choice isn't any better. Please see WP:NOSHARE and WP:CORPNAME Jannik Schwaß (talk) 09:47, 3 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Organizations, including schools, are *not* allowed to have user accounts at Wikipedia. User accounts are for individuals *only*. Individuals are *not* allowed to have usernames which represent organizations. That is *not* optional. If you do not start listening to what you are being told and follow the instructions you are being given, you will lose access to this talk page too.

 * Additionally, you will not be allowed to continue violating WP:COI and WP:PROMO. Please read and understand these policies. You must tell us what you'll write about instead, now that you know you won't be writing about Urban Krav Maga. --Yamla (talk) 15:00, 3 May 2019 (UTC)

Again, "You must tell us what you'll write about instead, now that you know you won't be writing about Urban Krav Maga." Saying "I will only write as a bio" is meaningless, and doesn't tell us what you'll write about instead. --Yamla (talk) 11:51, 8 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Globally renamed 'UltraKravMaga' to 'Marc Edward-Smith'. Just Chilling (talk) 21:25, 18 May 2019 (UTC)

We've told you repeatedly you won't be unblocked to write about Ultra Krav Maga, that this would be a violation of WP:COI and WP:PROMO. You are either not listening or incapable of understanding. Regardless, we've spent enough time here. I have revoked your talk page access. Another admin will be along shortly to review your request. If they decline your request, that leaves you with WP:UTRS. Please, please, please read WP:GAB, WP:COI, and WP:PROMO before making a request there. If your request looks anything like these, you'll lose your final avenue to be unblocked. --Yamla (talk) 13:04, 16 May 2019 (UTC)
