You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you insert a spam link. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted, preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well as potentially being penalized by search engines. 2601:19E:4180:6D50:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 05:08, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

 Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because your account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. Also, your username gives the impression that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

If you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization, you may request unblock and a username change. In your reasons, you must: To do this, 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.
 * Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement; and
 * 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; and
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked; and
 * Provide a new username.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken and in use by another account. You can go here to search and see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If the search returns that no global account with that username exists, that means it is available to be taken.

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.  Spencer T• C 06:23, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

This does not describe your obvious conflict of interest. Please explain the exact, specific nature of your relationship to Triton Financial Solutions. What will you write about instead? It's highly unlikely you'll be unblocked to write about the debt industry, given your contributions so far. --Yamla (talk) 11:37, 12 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your response, Yamla. I understand the concerns regarding a potential conflict of interest. To clarify, I am the owner of Triton Financial Solutions. My intention in contributing to Wikipedia was purely educational, aiming to update content in the debt industry that has not been refreshed in over a decade. I recognize that there is a lack of resources for individuals looking to start businesses in this field, and I hoped to share my knowledge and expertise to help prevent potential scams and provide valuable information.
 * To address the concerns raised:
 * Avoiding Direct Promotion: I will ensure that my contributions are strictly educational and do not promote Triton Financial Solutions or any services we offer. My aim is to provide factual, unbiased information that benefits the Wikipedia community.
 * Disclosing My Affiliation: I will disclose my ownership of Triton Financial Solutions on my user page and on the talk pages of any articles where my contributions might be influenced by this relationship, in accordance with Wikipedia's conflict of interest guidelines.
 * Focusing on General Topics: While my expertise is in the debt industry, I understand the sensitivity around this topic. I am willing to contribute to more general topics related to business and finance, ensuring that my edits are well-sourced and neutral.
 * Seeking Consensus: I will engage with other editors and seek consensus on any significant changes or additions I propose, especially in topics where my conflict of interest may be a concern.
 * I hope this addresses your concerns and demonstrates my commitment to contributing positively to Wikipedia. I am eager to share my knowledge in a way that aligns with Wikipedia's policies and helps those seeking information in this field. Thank you for considering my response.

 * If my unblock request is ultimately denied, I respectfully ask that the Wikipedia community be encouraged to contribute to the debt buyer Wikipedia page. It is crucial that this page provides updated and useful information for those seeking knowledge in this field.
 * Thank you again for your consideration. Tritonfin (talk) 11:46, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
 * I would not be willing to unblock you to write about business and finance. I also note that you do indeed count as a paid editor, see WP:PAID. However, I'll leave your unblock request to another admin to review. --Yamla (talk) 11:48, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Understood and thank you for leaving the request open to a 2nd opinion, I would like to propose the creation of a new page titled "Debt Buyer/Collection Agency Guide." This page would focus exclusively on educational material for those interested in understanding the intricacies of the debt buying and collection industry. It would provide a comprehensive overview, best practices, compliance and guidance for new entrants, separate from the existing "Debt Buyer" page.
 * I believe this could be a valuable resource for the Wikipedia community, and I am willing to contribute my knowledge and expertise to ensure its accuracy and usefulness without promoting my business in any way. Tritonfin (talk) 11:51, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
 * I understand the concerns regarding paid contributions as outlined in Wikipedia's policy. However, I would like to clarify that my situation does not fall under the typical definition of a paid contributor.
 * As the owner of Triton Financial Solutions, my intention in contributing to Wikipedia was not as part of a paid arrangement or to promote my business. Instead, my aim was to share my knowledge and expertise in the debt industry to provide valuable educational content for those seeking information in this field. I did not receive, nor did I expect to receive, any direct compensation for these contributions.
 * I acknowledge the importance of transparency and adhering to Wikipedia's policies. If allowed to contribute in the future, I am committed to ensuring that my edits are in line with Wikipedia's guidelines and that any potential conflict of interest is clearly disclosed. I hope this clarification addresses your concerns and demonstrates my commitment to contributing positively to the Wikipedia community. Tritonfin (talk) 11:58, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
