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. 331dot (talk) 13:26, 28 February 2019 (UTC)

You have not selected a new username as instructed; business names as usernames are not permitted; your username must indicate that an individual is using this account. You need not use your real name. If you want the business name in your username, a name in the format of "Username of SparkEnergy" would be acceptable. Please follow the instructions to propose a compliant username; you may simply replace your existing unblock request with a new one. 331dot (talk) 14:04, 28 February 2019 (UTC)


 * The "Username" aspect was not meant as a specific suggestion, but as an example of an acceptable format. You should replace "username" with your choice of name. Do you really want "username" as your username? Simply edit your existing request. 331dot (talk) 14:41, 28 February 2019 (UTC)

I have changed your username from SparkEnergyWiki, which resolves that matter; someone else will review your request, but you will need to address your violation of WP:COI and WP:PAID, following the block notice instructions to "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." 331dot (talk) 14:59, 28 February 2019 (UTC)

Thanks - I would like to submit some general amends in the 'talk' section of the Spark Energy account, full declaring my 'link' with the company, in line with Wiki Guidelines. The original edit request was intended to be fully transparent. It is based on the description of Spark which is currently in the intro of the Wikipedia page. I have a suggested amend which is more factually accurate - including up to date citation.

I am considering this request, but we normally expect editors to have accounts for the purpose of improving Wikipedia, not merely for updating information related to their company. Do you have any intention of working on Wikipedia beyond the edits suggested in your unblock request? GoldenRing (talk) 12:17, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
