Spamming
If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
 * 2) participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam);
 * and you must always:
 * 1) avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see Business' FAQ. For more details about what constitutes a conflict of interest, please see Conflict of Interest. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  14:44, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia, because it has been identified as an account used for promotion of a company or group, with a username that implies that this has been done by that company or group. See Business' FAQ and Conflict of interest.

This kind of activity is considered spamming and is forbidden by Wikipedia policies. In addition, the use of a username like yours violates our username policy.

You may appeal this block by adding the text  or emailing the administrator who blocked you. Your reason should include your response to this issue and a new username you wish to adopt that does not violate our username policy (specifically, understand that accounts are for individuals, not companies or groups, and that your username should reflect this). Usernames that have already been taken are listed here. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  14:44, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

There's no problem with that username. But are you interested in making edits other than those which drew our attention? Daniel Case (talk) 13:19, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Indeed, your question leaves us wondering whether you understand that companies are not supposed to be posting information about themselves (or their competitors, products, etc.) in Wikipedia? -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  13:43, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Actually, there is a User:DKopp who was blocked as a sockpuppet. You may want to choose a different name, as it's possible you could be confused with the blocked user. To continue on what Daniel and Orangemike were talking about, you may want to consider reading our FAQ for businesses if you haven't already. To keep Wikipedia neutral, we ask that you avoid subjects you are affiliated with. Hers fold  non-admin (t/a/c) 20:33, 19 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Well, they're cautioned about editing articles related to their companies, not forbidden. However, Rescodotnet's best bet would be to propose additions to the talk page and see what others think, if he wishes to work on such articles, even if it's just to not scare the natives. -- Ned Scott 05:52, 20 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Asking for a block review is hardly disruptive. -- Ned Scott 10:53, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
 * And next time, allow a different admin to decline the request. It's bad form for you to decline both of them. -- Ned Scott 10:54, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Had Spartaz not declined, I would have anyway; the COI editor doesn't seem to "get it" yet, and is abusing your (Ned's) considerable goodwill instead. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  14:29, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
