 * 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.


 * Dear Michell,
 * We, at QuTech an advanced research institute for quantum computing and internet (collaboration between the TU Delft University and TNO (The Netherlands Organization for applied Science) are shocked and saddened that our educational platform Quantum Network Explorer that is purely dedicated for students to learn about quantum internet has been blocked and treated as a commercial entry without even contacting us to find out more. Quantum Network Explorer is the worlds first website where students can learn about quantum internet and it is part of the national Dutch agenda to advance quantum technologies. If in doubt, please check https://qutech.nl/demonstrators/. In additional Prof Stephanie Wehner and Ronald Hanson (both are on Wikipedia pages) are the lead researches and contributors to the Quantum Network Explorer. We are also surprised to see, that IBM's Qiskit is on the Wikipedia which is launched and used for the commercial purposes and is not ruthlessly blocked like us.
 * Once again, we are an advanced research institute with an aim to educate students and researchers on quantum technologies therefore we would appreciate if our content was unblocked including the IP address which is PRIVATE given that working form home is a norm.
 * Thank you for understanding. If you have any questions, please email us contact@quanrtum-network.com
 * Regards,

 * Your username represents an organization, or a role within it. Either of these are violations of Wikipedia's username policy and are grounds for a block. Accounts must represent individual editors, not organizations, groups of people or positions within them.
 * The presence (or lack) of a Wikipedia article about a particular topic is determined by whether it meets Wikipedia's notability criteria. Wikipedia doesn't include topics merely because they exist. A topic must have already gained sufficiently significant attention by the world at large and over a period of time, and are not outside the scope of Wikipedia. We consider evidence from reliable and independent sources to gauge this attention.
 * In the case of companies and organizations, the notability criteria are further refined at WP:NCORP. According to FAQ/Organizations, Wikipedia makes no distinction between for-profit businesses and non-profit organizations (including educational or government bodies). All have an equal burden of evidence to demonstrate their notability.
 * Writing about your own organization is highly discouraged. We have little interest in what a person wishes to say about their own organization/work/product/idea - it is an inherent conflict of interest (COI). While COI editing is not prohibited outright, we do not recommend it because it is difficult for you to:
 * Judge your own organization's notability objectively
 * Write about your organization from the required neutral point of view
 * Avoid using any personal knowledge or experience, and rely solely on information from independent sources
 * If you wish to be unblocked, please follow the unblock instructions in the notice above, remembering to select a new username. An administrator will review your request when time permits. Based on my own observations of these appeals, if your only interest here is to write about your organization (at least in the short term), the chances of your account being unblocked are low. However, if you are interested in becoming a general contributor editing topic areas outside your conflict of interest, then the chances will be better. Good luck. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 07:50, 25 March 2022 (UTC)


 * P.S. For what it's worth, I looked at the Qiskit article you mentioned and found its quality to be poor. Its creator was paid by IBM; because they openly disclosed this fact from the start, they did not violate our paid editing disclosure policy. Nonetheless, it is full of references to sources that are not reliable, or considered primary sources (affiliated with the article subject). I have placed several maintenance tags to flag it for improvement - or if that fails, potential deletion.


 * That is why we often caution users when they try make a case for their article based on the existence of another similar article (WP:OTHERSTUFF). The article you are examining may itself be problematic, and potentially equally unsuitable for Wikipedia. Unfortunately with over 6 million articles and an entirely volunteer editor pool, it is impossible to patrol and maintain quality on every single article... some bad ones will escape our notice. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 08:03, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Good morning,
 * I guess this is a learning curve for everyone. Moving forward, if you still think that our educational content is not good and cannot even be amended, then i guess it will have to be removed from Wikipedia, however i would like then my personal home IP block to be changed to the one that TU Delft University is on (currently I am in the office so I guess you can see that) because I work for TU Delft University and the content that I uploaded to the Wikipedia belongs to the university and not my home IP address. How can this be amended?
 * Many thanks! Quantumnetworkexplorer (talk) 08:23, 4 April 2022 (UTC)
