The account that was created earlier was by mistake due to which I have discarded it completely. Although I had worked on the article on that account, I later decided to post the article using the current one to keep it all in one place. You can keep the other account blocked while I request you to kindly unblock this account as I wish to contribute more using the current ID. Also, I confirm that I have not been paid by any person whatsoever for publishing the article. With respect to the promotional nature of my edits - I have taken utmost concern while framing this and have referred to all the articles that have been cited under the same - request you to please suggest edits so that I will be able to rework on the same. Thank you.
 * "The account"? I count at least three other accounts that are technically confirmed to be yours, as well as five others that are quite likely. Which one was the mistake - or are we expected to believe that you accidentally created all of them before settling on this one? Your claim about not being paid is balderdash; you are very obviously being paid for your edits here. We permit paid editing (with certain provisos), but we do not allow paid editors to conceal their affiliations. Yunshui 雲 水 11:18, 1 October 2018 (UTC)

I am talking about the account I created i.e. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Pooq.in which is the only duplicate I am aware of. Can you please let me know the other accounts that you are referring to as I am not aware of its existence. I repeat, I have not been paid to work on this article and I am working on this only because I had closely worked with the business in the past and believed that an article was needed around them. Thank you for your prompt replies.

Thank you for sharing the link. I confirm that the only profile I recognise is the one that I mentioned earlier. How do I proceed?
 * You can re-request an unblock at any time using the template, and hope that some administrator believes you. I, for what it's worth, don't. Yunshui 雲 水  12:54, 1 October 2018 (UTC)

You work for a marketing firm with an overlap to at least one of the companies you've written about, despite your claim above. In my opinion, you lack of forthrightness and your violations of WP:COI, WP:PAID, WP:PROMO, and WP:SOCK mean no administrator should unblock you. --Yamla (talk) 14:33, 1 October 2018 (UTC)

I do agree with what you say. WRT being paid I am not sure how I can produce documents which state otherwise. I am kind of being sidelined here by your administrator team. Can you please help me out of this situation and educate me on my next steps in case I want to continue writing/editing articles on Wikipedia? I mean no harm here. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nandan S Kedlaya (talk • contribs) 05:36, 8 October 2018 (UTC)
 * You could start by telling us of your connection with Cure Fit. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 06:48, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for agreeing to assist. I had been managing digital marketing efforts for curefit in their starting days. I happened to note that they did not have a Wikipedia page as such and thought I could create one for them as they had been in news quite often. I went ahead and created my draft copy to the best of my knowledge after referring to all the available sources online. I have always wanted to write articles but did not have a solid start point hence was delayed till I came across curefit. That's how it all started and now that I plan to write more but, I am stuck with the block.
 * And yet you claimed above that you are not paid to promote Cure Fit here at Wikipedia? Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 07:05, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

Yes, I have not been paid whatsoever. Like I told you, I wrote this out of passion and that I knew a little about the organisation.
 * So you're telling us that you work as a digital marketing manager for Cure Fit for free? Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 07:09, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

I used to work for their search network campaigns only and creating a wikipedia article was not even a part of the contract.
 * I have encountered a number of undisclosed paid editors and marketing professionals in my time here, and one thing that never fails to amaze me is that they seem to think that real-world people (ie those of us who are not marketing professionals) can not tell the difference between plain honest talk and marketing speak. I have very little tolerance for marketing speak, particularly when it is directed at me when what I require is plain honest talk. In short, I will not be marketed at, and I consider it an abuse of Wikipedia's principles (and of my good nature) when that happens. You are obviously here to further your clients' interests, and your Draft about Cure Fit was obviously part of your marketing efforts. I have revoked your ability to edit this talk page to prevent any further waste of time. If you wish to appeal further, WP:UTRS is still open to you - but please read WP:COI, WP:PAID and (perhaps most importantly) Honesty before you consider using that avenue.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Cure Fit


A tag has been placed on Draft:Cure Fit, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic.

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.
