 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 gives the impression 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; and
 * 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; and
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked; and
 * 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. Kinu t/c 15:41, 20 March 2024 (UTC)


 * I am so lost. I read wikipedia all the time. I thought I could contribute as an expert on an ingredient. I uploaded a picture. I see that it has a watermark on it now and someone requesed the original image. I was trying to understand how to replace the original image (which is 4 years old so I had to dig off a file) - and now i have been blocked trying to update it. I dont even understand what i did wrong other than upload a picture. There were so many people that came at me in 3 seconds, I didnt even figure out what I did wrong until the second person was kind enough to say put up the original image w/ data. This is bizarre.

 * and i guess I am not allowed to use my regular username? I was trying not to just put my first and last name as a username, but I am happy to change it to something more anonymous. I don't know how. It would be nice if someone actually helped versus giving me any time to figure it out. I am just a normal person. Saltysidedish (talk) 15:52, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
