User talk:Spotpushassociates

Many people come to edit Wikipedia with mistaken ideas as to the nature of Wikipedia, and in perfectly good faith do things which are not in line with Wikipedia policies, and unfortunately you seem to have done so. The account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to Wikipedia's content policy, and both your editing history and your username indicate 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 this page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this 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. To save wasting time asking for a name that's already been taken, go to Special:CentralAuth, type your name in the box, and click on the button. If the name is already in use you will see some details about the account with that name, and if it isn't in use you'll see a red message telling you there is no global account with that name.
 * 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 below.

Before making any unblock request, you should read the guide to appealing blocks. JBW (talk) 16:13, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

can you please explain what you mean by - Please address your inappropriate edits? as the reason given for the block is "Using Wikipedia for advertising or promotion, and account representing a business" Spotpushassociates (talk) 18:01, 28 October 2021 (UTC):
 * Right. You didn't address your use of Wikipedia for advertising or promotion, you only addressed the username concern. Please review WP:SPAM and WP:NOTADVERTISING. --Yamla (talk) 18:14, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
 * If you're referring to the links I added to a couple of pages referencing the particular subject matter, which I can't undo as I'm blocked, then I must have misunderstood what “links” Wikipedia was requesting editors to add to the pages. Otherwise I haven't advertised or promoted anything related to me on Wikipedia.

 * @Spotpushassociates I believe the blocking admin was referring to your now deleted draft at Draft:Spotpush Associates, about the company that your username implies you have a relationship with. I would advise you go through our Plain and simple conflict of interest guide, and understand what you can and cannot do on Wikipedia with a conflict of interest. After that, you are welcome to request an unblock, explaining how you are going to contribute moving forward. Thanks. Yee no   (talk) 🍁 19:53, 28 October 2021 (UTC)


 * ok now I understand what you're referring to. However, it was a 'draft' and not visible to the public right?  Anyway feel free to delete my account, all my data and prevent any further email notifications.
