User talk:SpoinkOSDevs

Hi. Welcome to Wikipedia!

While it is great that you want to improve Wikipedia, please be aware that the English version of Wikipedia has a policy prohibiting usernames directly associated with a company or organization. If you continue to use this account, you may find yourself "blocked" from editing because of a "promotional username". It would be better to have someone create an account under their own name, or under some other name not associated with your company. For this account, you can request a change of name, or, since this is brand new and has not been used for any editing, you may wish to simply abandon this account and create a new one.

Also, please be aware that if you want to edit any of the Wikipedia articles associated with your organization, and you are associated with the subject of those articles, your edits will fall into Wikipedia's "Conflict of Interest" (COI) guidelines. I would encourage you to read these pages to understand what you can and cannot do with pages about companies or organizations you are associated with:


 * Plain and simple conflict of interest guide
 * What Wikipedia is not
 * Wikipedia conflict of interest guidelines
 * FAQ for businesses and organizations

If you follow the guidelines, which usually involve NOT directly editing pages but rather leaving edit requests on "Talk" pages, you will find that many editors may help make changes that you are requesting. If you don't follow the guidelines and make direct edits to pages where you have a conflict, you will probably find editors reverting your changes, which can be very frustrating for you.

Please feel free to leave questions here and I or other editors can help. - Dyork (talk) 00:47, 7 February 2024 (UTC)


 * "SpoinkOSDevs" is the same as my Github username and it is not related to a company of any sort as it is just a string of text and is just an account name; I hope this clears this up. SpoinkOSDevs (talk) 00:59, 7 February 2024 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:SpoinkOS Linux


A tag has been placed on Draft:SpoinkOS Linux, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Hello, SpoinkOSDevs. Thank you for helping to build Wikipedia-- the world's largest free content encyclopedia.

A page you ceated  Draft:SpoinkOS Linux  has been deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion-- promotional content. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. It is not a venue for promoting any subject.  Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, and from a neutral perspective, with information from   independent sources  with a reputation for fact checking,. Subjects must meet inclusion requirements. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thanks,

 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. &#45;- Deepfriedokra (talk) 02:03, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
