User:Studiopendulum
A tag has been placed on your user page, User:Studiopendulum, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person, and which is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages: user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for businesses.

If you can indicate why the page is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add  on the top of the page in question and leave a note on this page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Calton | Talk 00:56, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia, because it has been identified as an account used for promotion of a company or group, with a username that implies that this has been done by that company or group. See FAQ/Organization and Conflict of interest''.

This kind of activity is considered spamming and forbidden by policies, and also violates our username policy.

However, if you feel that there has been a mistake in your blocking, please appeal this block by adding the text   or email the administrator who blocked you. Your reason should include your response to this issue and a new username you wish to adopt that does not violate our username policy (specifically, understand that accounts are for individuals, not companies or groups, and that your username should reflect this). Please check that your new username has not already been taken by checking this list.

Can you tell what contributions you intend to make if you are unblocked?  Sandstein  05:34, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

You stated This account was never intended to promote a company. and then you stated If you allow the block to be lifted, I will be able to update it and share Pendulum's technological advances with the Wikipedia community. I don't see the difference there. Looking at your past contributions, the ONLY edits you made to wikipedia were to promote your company. And it appears you intend to keep doing that, if the block was to be lifted. Am I wrong? Sandstein has a very apt question that I too would like to know the answer. How do you intend to improve the encyclopedia (assuming, hypotheticaly, that a Studio Pendulum article is off limits).-Andrew c [talk] 15:40, 9 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Put simply, the article may or may not be appropriate but it is certainly inappropriate for you to be pushing for it. Wikipedia is not a vanity publisher.  If Pendulum deserves an article, someone will eventually create one; someone who is independent of the company and doesn't have a conflict of interest.  If your only interest here is in establishing a listing for your company regardless of Wikipedia policies, then you have no place editing here.  Mango juice talk 20:43, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

I've changed your request so admins can see it ("unblock on hold" actually removes the request from the main listing, you should use "unblock"). I would happily deny this request as well for exactly the same reasons, but in the interests of avoiding accusations of bias, I'll let another admin consider the request.
