User talk:West Coast Sports

July 2013
Here are a few key questions:
 * Do you understand that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and not a business directory?
 * Do you understand conflict of interest?
 * Do you understand that to be considered for an encyclopedia article, the subject must be notable?

You are currently blocked because your username appears directly related to a company, group or product that you have been promoting, contrary to the username policy. Changing the username will not allow you to violate the 3 important principles above. Daniel Case (talk) 03:54, 16 July 2013 (UTC)


 * This block strikes me as unwarranted and unnecessary, and the questions asked by Daniel Case are inapt. I don't see any evidence of this editor making promotional or COI edits.  I don't see any evidence of adding non-notable content either.  I think this user is probably just a fan of sports played on the West Coast, like those at San Diego State University.

 * I agree with Jweiss11 and I don't see evidence of this user promoting any organization. Particularly with the change to a new username, I think the block should be lifted. Billcasey905 (talk) 23:46, 21 July 2013 (UTC)

Block removed
I think I was somewhat overstepping the line with this block - the name looks promotional but there is no evidence of promotional editing - bad call by me - sorry! --  Brookie :) { - he's in the building somewhere!}  (Whisper...) 10:25, 22 July 2013 (UTC)
