User talk:PhilGeusebroek

Welcome!
Hello, ChristianCreditUnion, 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:ChristianCreditUnion/sandbox, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

If you have any questions, ask me on my talk page. You can also type help me on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome!

Speedy deletion nomination of User:ChristianCreditUnion/sandbox


A tag has been placed on your user page, User:ChristianCreditUnion/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. Schminnte (talk • contribs) 17:39, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

July 2023
 Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because your account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. Also, your username indicates that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

If you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization, you may request unblock and a username change. In your reasons, you must: To do this, 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.
 * Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
 * 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.
 * Provide a new username.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken and in use by another account. You can go here to search and see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If the search returns that no global account with that username exists, that means it is available to be taken.

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. Lourdes 04:44, 5 July 2023 (UTC)


 * I also want to make sure that I disclose any compensation that I may receive for my contributions as non-existent as I do not have any monetary benefits or paid compensation for any content that is proposed. Finally, if I were to be unblocked I will contribute through successfully editing Wiki pages along with referenced links. ChristianCreditUnion (talk) 19:38, 18 July 2023 (UTC)


 * I have read the WP:COI policy and I do not see any conflict of interest as it partains "involves contributing to Wikipedia about yourself, family, friends, clients, employers, or your financial and other relationships. Any external relationship can trigger a conflict of interest. Someone having a conflict of interest is a description of a situation, not a judgment about that person's opinions, integrity, or good faith." Potentially editing about other credit unions in Canada is in no way conflict of interest as I do not work there or have any relationship with them through monetary or paid contributions. Please clarify what you mean. ChristianCreditUnion (talk) 17:22, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

If you are willing to commit to editing only articles that are unrelated to your employer (for the short term, at least), then that should satisfy the conditions for an unblock.

Please note that, although you might consider yourself to be a subject-matter expert in the field of credit unions, you must still abide by Wikipedia's core policies of verifiability from reliable sourcing, no original research and neutrality. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 01:02, 22 July 2023 (UTC)


 * It is a conflict of interest to edit about other credit unions because they are your competitors. Per this explanatory page, "Do not edit or create articles about yourself, your family or friends, your organization, your clients, or your competitors." 331dot (talk) 08:52, 22 July 2023 (UTC)


 * If unblocked, what articles would you be interested in editing? Z1720 (talk) 15:33, 11 August 2023 (UTC)


 * If unblocked, I would be interested in editing articles that are recommended by Wikipedia for starters and beginners, and articles related to Canadian history and nature. ChristianCreditUnion (talk) 20:48, 14 August 2023 (UTC)


 * I removed, because you already have an unreviewed unblock request, and your request from August 31 merely repeated your comment above from August 14. You should only have one open unblock request at a time; additional requests will not get your case reviewed any faster. I realize this might seem like a long wait, but there is a long queue of unblock requests for the volunteer admins to review; they are publicly listed at CAT:UNB. Your request may take several weeks before it is seen; there is nothing left for you to do except patiently wait your turn. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 14:37, 2 September 2023 (UTC)


 * I've renamed. Do you have any objection to an unblock conditional on no mainspace COI editing? -- Tamzin  &#91;cetacean needed&#93; (she&#124;they&#124;xe) 21:31, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Absolutely. No issues. Thanks Tamzin. Lourdes  05:05, 3 September 2023 (UTC)


 * I don't know what I or Yamla has done to be "unfriendly". I have been nothing but polite and civil, trying to help you. 331dot (talk) 22:15, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
