Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Q.U.B.E. has been reverted. Your edit here to Q.U.B.E. was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vi_U65Y6fDg&t=1s) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 08:53, 4 August 2017 (UTC)

There have been two problems with this account: 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 or other organisation or group, 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 your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth 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 that 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.
 * 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 at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. RickinBaltimore (talk) 13:00, 4 August 2017 (UTC)

Note specifically that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia rather than a web hosting service. See WP:NOT. I'm not meaning this rudely; your contributions have been inappropriate for Wikipedia but would be entirely appropriate for just about any other site. The issue is in our policies around WP:COI, WP:PAID, and WP:PROMO which are substantially different from other sites you would normally use. It may simply not be appropriate for you to edit articles directly here, but those policies will provide you with guidelines and avenues toward an unblock, if you do wish to continue editing. More succinctly, your contributions were inappropriate for Wikipedia but your mistake was entirely understandable; your contributions would have been appropriate just about anywhere else, it's just that Wikipedia has different goals. --Yamla (talk) 13:31, 4 August 2017 (UTC)

As a means to help, I have zero conflict of interest with Toxic Games or their staff - outside of purchasing and enjoying QUBE - but did help significantly on the original Q.U.B.E. article. I can help mitigate some of the issues here in terms of COI (eg I had not gotten to it yesterday but just now reworked the sequel aspects of QUBE with 3rd party sources and more in line with how we'd write such articles). I can help with managing the appropriate material that should be added in a neutral/nonpromo manner. --M ASEM  13:42, 4 August 2017 (UTC)

Hi M ASEM, thank you for your help and for rectifying these issues. I am not concerned with editing or re-editing but I would appreciate some help to get a Q.U.B.E. 2 page up. All relevant information can be found here: http://www.qube-game.com/press/sheet.php?p=QUBE2
