Dear Moderator. It is not an advertisement I detailed in my edit. It was purely entire open source codebase details of Titan coin. Source code. Wallet code etc etc. Please have a look. Website is also mentioned in reference. TitanCoin (talk) 04:44, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Whether you intended it as an advertisement or whether the code is open source is, frankly, not relevant. There are still several issues:
 * Your username appears to represent the TitanCoin project in an official capacity, and also implies that the account could be shared by multiple representatives of this company or project. This is a violation of our username policy, and you will need to have your username changed so that it represents a single person.  (Names like "John Doe at Bigcorp" are fine; names like "Bigcorp" are not.)   This is the primary reason for the block.
 * Based on your username, you have a conflict of interest with regards to this project and should not directly edit in this topic area, though you can suggest edits on article talk pages and leave it up to other editors to decide if the suggestions are appropriate.
 * You completely replaced an existing disambiguation page with your content. It would have been better to create an entirely new article.
 * The article you created is completely unsourced, which violates our policy on verifiability.
 * The article did not credibly indicate how it is notable enough to have its own Wikipedia article. There are hundreds -- possibly thousands -- of cryptocurrencies in 2021.  A random altcoin is not notable on its own; there needs to be significant coverage in reliable, secondary sources to indicate that this project is notable enough for its own article.
 * The article did contain promotional wording (Titancoin's blockchain can be used to deploy assets within few clicks, easier than ever) as well as detailed technical documentation not useful in an encyclopedia article. This is probably because it was copied from the Titan Coin readme, which could be a violation of our copyright policy.
 * Put simply, whether you intended it as an advertisement or not, the effort appears to me to be an attempt to promote the project on Wikipedia. Even if you change your username, recreating the article the same way you did prior still violates several policies and guidelines.  This is not a judgement about the merits of the TitanCoin project.  --Chris (talk) 05:20, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
