User talk:StAndrewsPrep

June 2021
 Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing because of the following problems: 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, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

You may request a change of name and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions other than promoting your business or organization. To do this, first search Special:CentralAuth for available usernames that comply with the username policy. Once you have found an acceptable username, 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. In your reasons, you must:
 * Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the Paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
 * 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.

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. Longhair\talk 06:35, 30 June 2021 (UTC)

Are you employed by the school in any capacity? You don't have to be specifically paid for edits to be a paid editor. Any financial relationship with a subject you are editing about triggers the paid disclosure requirement. Are there any subjects other than your school you wish to edit about? Do you understand that Wikipedia summarizes what independent reliable sources say, and not necessarily what a subject wants to say about itself? Please review conflict of interest and how to make edit requests. 331dot (talk) 13:10, 30 June 2021 (UTC)

I am the Head of the School. The Wikipedia page was published by authors unknown to the school and was more than five years out of date until the updates I made today before being blocked. The Wikipedia page, therefore, was not a reliable source of information. The facts thereon were incorrect and misleading - which I assume is in conflict with the intent of Wikipedia? The updated facts are verifiable via the school website or any recent school publication, prospectus or newsletter. School information changes annually, if not more regularly, and must be regularly updated by a responsible person.StAndrewsPrep (talk) 14:06, 30 June 2021 (UTC)
 * As the head of the school, you meet the definition of a paid editor and must make a formal declaration; you may do that on this page, see WP:PAID for instructions.
 * As you have a conflict of interest, you should not directly edit the article about your school, but may make formal edit requests(click for instructions) on the article talk page, detailing changes you feel are needed, preferably sourced to independent sources(though primary sources are acceptable in certain circumstances). Are there any contributions you want to make to Wikipedia more broadly? 331dot (talk) 20:25, 30 June 2021 (UTC)

Rename not successful
The chosen username is too similar to an existing username or it used to be username of someone else that got renamed. Please choose again. -- Deep fried okra ( talk ) 23:30, 30 June 2021 (UTC)
