User talk:Redoxagen

Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended for publicity and/or promotional purposes. If you intend to edit constructively in other topic areas, you may be granted the right to continue under a change of username. Please read the following carefully.

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, website or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements and using Wikipedia for promotion. Wikipedia has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but such groups are generally discouraged from using Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.
 * Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Probably not, although if you can demonstrate a pattern of future editing in strict accordance with our neutral point of view policy, you may be granted this right. See Wikipedia's FAQ for Organizations for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, organization, or clients. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit again.
 * Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?


 * What can I do now?

If you have no interest in writing about some other topic than your organization, group, company, or product, you will probably not be allowed to edit Wikipedia again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead. If you do intend to make useful contributions about some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:


 * Add the text on your user talk page.
 * 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.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text below, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  06:03, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for email. I'm watching this page, which you can still edit, so it's probably quicker for you to reply here. There are a number of issues here.
 * Your user name is so similar to that of the company for which you work, that it seems a clear breach of our username policy, and I doubt that you will be allowed to use it, although you can follow the unblock procedure above if you think that you should be allowed to use it.
 * A better bet would be to follow the unblock procedure and ask to be allowed to change your username. Another admin will make a decision on that since it's not fair for me to do so.
 * I am not going to undelete the article in it's present form. If you are unblocked or can change username, you can recreate, but you need to address the following problems.
 * You did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Your only source was your company. If nothing has been written about this outside your company, it's probably not notable enough at the present time. Your company is not an independent source for its own products.
 * It was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Examples of claims with no independent sources but presented as fact include: a novel platform... repair cellular damage, fight infection... force it to commit apoptosis... a stellar safety profile... non-toxic even when given in massive overdoses... without any serious side effects...
