Welcome!
Hello, Planitgeo, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as User:Planitgeo/sandbox, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type help me on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Questions or ask me on my talk page.

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Planitgeo/sandbox


A tag has been placed on your user page, User:Planitgeo/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 blatant advertising which only promotes or publicises a company, product, group or service, and which 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. 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 removed 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 deleting administrator. Melcous (talk) 08:13, 4 November 2016 (UTC)

November 2016
There have been two problems identified 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, 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 this 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. MER-C 11:15, 4 November 2016 (UTC)

{{unblock | I understand I accidentally caused a conflict of interest within the text I was writing. I am creating a page to inform the online community about a business, however I accidentally started talking too much about the owner of the company and not the company itself. If the account is unblocked I will rewrite the information on the page to better teach the online community about the company, not the founder}

{{unblock | After reflecting for some time, and browsing Wikipedia pages as reference, I understand when I first created the Wikipedia page, I accidentally made it too promotional and it became an advertisement. My intention was to inform the online community of the company, but unfortunately I did not do so correctly. I would appreciate the chance to have full access to my account where I can create a new page where I properly inform the online community about a company or business, rather than advertise or promote them. Creating a page which came off as an advertisement was never my intention, and it is not my intention now. From this experience I have a better understanding of what I should and shouldn't do, and with the information provided throughout this thread I plan to create a proper Wikipedia page. }
 * I have renamed this account to the name you requested in November, from User:Planitgeo, so that part of the problem is OK now. I have not examined the unblock request itself . Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 16:01, 2 January 2017 (UTC)
