User talk:SmartRecord

March 2018
There have been two problems with this account: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group or a web site, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing.

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth 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 that reason, you must:
 * 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.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Jimfbleak - talk to me?  16:23, 11 March 2018 (UTC)


 * You can read the instructions above which tell you how to address the username issue. I don't doubt that there are 300 pages on Wikipedia that need to be improved and/or deleted; that's no reason to make your page the 301st. See WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. Huon (talk) 21:05, 11 March 2018 (UTC)

For completeness, I also replied on my talk page Jimfbleak - talk to me?  16:34, 11 March 2018 (UTC)

Note that we also don't permit shared accounts. As to the "Wikipedia feed", I have no idea what you are talking about. You also seem to be threatening us with a social media campaign unless we unblock you. I'm not sure that's what you are saying, though, as your comments are hard to follow. If it is, that's an absolutely sure-fire way to get talk page access revoked. --Yamla (talk) 01:59, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
 * As the blocking admin, I won't take part in considering your requests, but you need to take careful note of two things
 * Admins TonyBallioni and Yamla have both said that they will stop you editing this page if your next appeal is just a rant instead of a proper unblock request.
 * If you are allowed a user name change, it will be conditional that you don't write about your company or its products, and you will be reblocked if you breach that condition. I suspect that isn't what you want, so unless you wish to contribute to other articles instead of promoting your own company, you may decide that their is little point in persisting here.

Threatening - are you for real? We are putting the facts in front of you and you agreed AppleCare was a sales site and you removed it. The AppleCare site referenced sales pages. Our page does not reference sales pages. Of course we are going to write about our products as does a thousand other sites. However, we have the references required to post about the product unlike the thousand other sites with links to press releases and public sales pages. Instead of deleting pages and blocking a civil conservation by your team would have been preferred. I will start listing all sales pages to you if you agree to start bringing them down similar to AppleCare.


 * Talk page access revoked. Once your current unblock request has been reviewed, this leaves you with WP:UTRS. I strongly suggest you read the various policies, and in particular WP:COI and WP:PAID, which you have been ignoring up to this point. --Yamla (talk) 13:28, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
