 Your account has been indefinitely blocked 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 username and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions instead of 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: 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. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 13:43, 25 January 2022 (UTC)

 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

Right. But we've told you multiple times that you won't be unblocked to do that. Are you deliberately wasting our time, or have you not actually read what we've told you? --Yamla (talk) 13:15, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

I certainly do not intend to waste your time. As mentioned, i'm a brand new user and I'm trying to understand what i can and can't do. So are you saying that i would need to set up a new account under a new user or are you saying what i'm trying to write about is in violation of the rules? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Oimmarketing (talk • contribs)


 * Let me make it more clear for you:
 * Companies are not entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist. They must meet Wikipedia's definition of a notable company before they are considered worthy of inclusion. Without proof of significant coverage from multiple reliable and independent sources, a company won't be considered notable enough to merit an article. Therefore, using Wikipedia to tell the world about the existence of a non-notable company is promotion.
 * You cannot have an account name that represents a company; this violates Wikipedia's non-negotiable username policy. Your current name is unacceptable, and your proposed new name is equally unacceptable for the same reason. Accounts are meant for individuals; not companies, organizations or groups of people. As such, the name must reflect individual use. If you combine an individual's name with your company's name (e.g. Simon at Opulence Investment Management), this is an acceptable compromise.
 * However, even with a new name, it's unlikely that you will be unblocked if your only intention is to write about your own company. Doing this is an inherent conflict of interest, and shows intentions of using Wikipedia to promote your company. If this is your only reason for using Wikipedia, then I doubt you will be unblocked and you should look for alternative outlets that allow this type of writing. However, if you are interested in becoming a general contributor, editing topic areas outside of your conflict of interest, then please submit an unblock request with a new username that conforms to Wikipedia's username policy.
