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 or a web site, 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. Longhair\talk 18:49, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

Question about being blocked
I believe I understand why you blocked my account. Would it help if I remove the Rankings information from the pages? I have been merely trying to keep them from being out-of-date. I was thinking of changing my username also, but it would still be tied to an email account that is shared even though I'm the only one using this account to edit in Wikipedia. Perhaps I should start with a fresh account tied to my own email? Please forgive my mistakes, I rarely get in here to edit but I want to make sure I am not violating policies when I am.


 * The block notice above addresses the reasons for your block. Your username is considered a role account and you are also editing with a clear conflict of interest. To be considered for an unblock please follow the directions above so another administrator may review thanks. -- Longhair\talk 01:56, 7 November 2018 (UTC)

OK, I do understand your response and reasons. Here are my responses: Thank you for your responses and advice. Let me know what else I need to do, if anything.Wcbawebmaster (talk) 16:30, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
 * I am the only one using this Wikipedia account though I had initially wanted to change it to another email address that was not a shared one
 * I understand about directly editing articles related to the organization I work for. I did not know I could request changes to an article, so perhaps I will do that from now on.
 * I understand the terms.
 * I am just going to say that I don't really plan to edit Wikipedia, so whatever you recommend to do with this account to keep it from getting hacked or renewed in anyway, I am ok with that.
 * You are free to make a new unblock request, that will be reviewed by a heretofore uninvolved administrator, to make the above points. In terms of 'hacking', if you don't intend to use this account any longer, no action needs to be taken. 331dot (talk) 16:36, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
