 Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because of the following problems: 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, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

To do this, first search Special:CentralAuth for available usernames that comply with the username policy. Once you have found an acceptable username, 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. In your reasons, you must: 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. 331dot (talk) 22:08, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement.

 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

You claim the image you posted as your own work, but it seems to be a capture from a news report. If you didn't take the image, you can't claim it as your own work. 331dot (talk) 22:09, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

The other image(the headshot) is also claimed as your own work but it appears professionally taken. 331dot (talk) 22:12, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

We will not contact you by email; Wikipedia matters are discussed on Wikipedia for openness and transparency(unless the most sensitive personal information is involved). How do you own the image from an ABC news broadcast? Did you yourself take the headshot of Taylor? Typically the photographer has the copyright unless a contract assigns it to someone else(which is unusual). 331dot (talk) 22:35, 20 June 2023 (UTC)


 * There are multiple other problems with what you have said:
 * Since you know Irene Taylor personally, then you have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI are highly discouraged from directly editing articles about affiliated subjects. Please see the simplified conflict of interest guide for a more detailed explanation.
 * You also said you work with Irene Taylor. Does she pay you for your work with her? If so, then you also fit the definition of a paid editor, per Wikipedia's terms of use and mandatory paid editing disclosure policy. Paid editors must disclose who is paying them, and what articles they are editing on behalf of the person/group who is paying them. You do not have to be paid specifically to edit Wikipedia for this policy to apply.
 * You cannot use your own unpublished personal knowledge or experience (called original research) about her as a source of information. Wikipedia articles only report what reliable and independent sources have already published about a topic. If something has never appeared in a reliable source, then it cannot exist on Wikipedia.
 * You should limit your involvement with the Irene Taylor Brodsky article to making edit requests for this page and allowing other uninvolved editors to review your proposed changes. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 15:04, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
 * I took this headshot photo myself and have all rights to it. No, I am not paid by Irene. Vermilionfilms (talk) 16:15, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
 * What is the general nature of your relationship with Irene? 331dot (talk) 18:17, 1 July 2023 (UTC)
