Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended or used for publicity and/or promotional purposes. Please read the following carefully.

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. You have violated one or more of our rules, including rules against adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements, using Wikipedia for promotion, and editing inappropriately with a conflict of interest. This kind of activity is considered spamming and is forbidden by Wikipedia's policies. Although Wikipedia has a great many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, it is considered inappropriate for such groups to use Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.
 * Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Probably not. See FAQ/Organization for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. See Conflict of interest for the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, or organization. If this does not fit in with your goals here, you will not be allowed to edit again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.
 * Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?

You are still welcome to write about something other than your company or organization. If you do intend to make useful contributions on some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:
 * What can I do now?


 * Add the text below this message box.
 * Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers 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 edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

See also Appealing a block for more information.
 * Seeing as you clearly intend to keep spamming any way you can, I am now going to revoke your ability to edit this page as well. Beeblebrox (talk) 20:35, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I just noticed the email you sent me. It's simple, you can't just say "I wrote this so it's mine." For one thing you ned to prove it via the process described on this page. For another, if you wrote it as part of your job, it probably belongs to the college and not you so copyright is not yours to release. And even if both these issues are overcome, you can't just repost promotional material to Wikipedia and expect it to be accepted as neutral encyclopedic content so it's moot anyhow. I'm going to lower your block level so that you can edit this page again if you wish to be unblocked  and change your username (which you must do if you wish to use this account again) but if you repost spam and/or copyright violations I'll revoke it for good.
