Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended for publicity and/or promotional purposes. Please read the following carefully.

Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, celebrity or other well-known individual, or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements, and using Wikipedia for promotion. Wikipedia has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but such groups are generally discouraged from using Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.

Probably not. See WP:FAQ/Organizations for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, organization, or clients. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.
 * Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?

You are still welcome to write about something other than your company, organization, or clients. If you do intend to make useful contributions on some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:
 * What can I do now?


 * Add the text on your user talk page.
 * Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers to search for available usernames. 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 edits for which you were blocked.
 * 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 but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. -- Orange Mike &#x007C;  Talk  21:28, 13 June 2012 (UTC)

Submission for entry on Wikipedia
Hello,

I recently submitted an article regarding Torch Partners to Wikipedia. I have pared back the wording to ensure it is not an advertisement and have made sure there are external links to the news items to support the content. The article keeps on being rejected. I have looked at the submissions for other companies in the same space and, if anything, our submission is less "salesy" than theirs are. Can you please explain why our submission continues to be rejected?

Regards,

Renata O'Donnell. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Torchpartners (talk • contribs) 17:08, 12 June 2012 (UTC)


 * The article has initially been rejected for being written as an advertisement. This has since been changed, and the next disapproval was not based on advertising - rather the rationale was that there is no indication that the company itself is notable under the notability guidelines. The linked policy, along with the WP:GNG dictate that a subject is notable if a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to satisfy the inclusion criteria for a stand-alone article or stand-alone list. In this case there is no indication for this. The added sources are two trivial mentions in a newspaper, and press releases by the company itself. Thus, the sources added fail WP:42.


 * On another note i would point out that the username you are using is a company name, which is not allowed by the username policy (I see another administrator already issued a block for this). I would also strongly point to our Conflict of interest policy, as it is extremely relevant in this case. Excirial ( Contact me, Contribs ) 17:50, 14 June 2012 (UTC)
