Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Air-supported structure has been reverted. Your edit here to Air-supported structure was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryDDTA-nqbM/) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 16:27, 8 September 2017 (UTC)

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, 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. Bishonen &#124; talk 19:17, 8 September 2017 (UTC)

The Farley Group is an air supported company. The air supported domes we are trying to add to the site are not for promotional use they are all connected to famous people or sports teams with domes. Not sure how all the other notable domes in the list are allowed to stay active but ours are deleted. We would like to edit details on what air supported structures are. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheFarleyGroup (talk • contribs)
 * Hello. You will need to review the post at the bottom of this page regarding your block and follow the instructions in it to properly request to be unblocked.  That includes proposing a new username that identifies an individual user, as the username policy does not permit usernames to be that of a company, or to be shared between users.  It is unlikely the administrators will permit you to directly edit about your company and its products, however. Also please note that not every company in a field necessarily merits a page here; other things exist.  Each page is judged on its own merits.
 * Just FYI talk page posts are typically placed below existing posts for better flow. 331dot (talk) 12:43, 11 September 2017 (UTC)

Thank you for your help. I am new to Wikipedia editing and wasn't aware that the username couldn't be connected to the company name.


 * I can't rename as 'Schmel' already exists. Please choose again, perhaps add a first name? Just amend the template. Availability can be checked here. Just Chilling (talk) 20:11, 11 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Globally renamed 'TheFarleyGroup' to 'SmittyFG'. Another admin will review your unblock request. Just Chilling (talk) 13:17, 12 September 2017 (UTC)
