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 {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} 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 {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 05:42, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

This is my Wikipedia account which is intended for useful site wide edits as well as for an upload of a original trademarked logo for its corporate Wikipedia page. No advertising or other patronage will be created due to that being counter to the purpose of Wikipedia. Please note that this is a personal account, and as such will not be used for any business purpose. pdubdubs

Decline reason:

If this is a personal account, please explain why its name is that of Pdubdubs Corporation, a Canadian founded marketing and advertising agency. An explanatin why your edits don't amount to promoting Pdubdubs Corporation would also be helpful. Huon (talk) 06:19, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Request reason:

The name of the account is pdubdubs, and a page for the corporation, Pdubdubs Corporation was created. None of my edits have had anything to do with business. I just needed to properly upload the trademarked logo. All my future edits will be for historical updates. Sorry for any confusion. pdubdubs

Decline reason:

You certainly did make edits about the business. You have also not selected a new username. To be unblocked, you will need to select a new username as described in your block notice, indicate that you have reviewed WP:PROMO, WP:COI, and WP:PAID, and tell us what you intend to edit about instead since you won't be permitted to edit about your company. For these reasons, I am declining this request. 331dot (talk) 08:33, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I will add that Wikipedia is not social media for merely telling the world about companies or their history, Wikipedia is only interested in what independent reliable sources state about a company, and has no interest in what a company wants to say about itself. 331dot (talk) 08:33, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Requested username:

Request reason:

I didn't get the chance to edit sources before it was removed, and help in adding a sidebar would be appreciated. Do I need to create 5 more accounts to create an illusion. I have lost much faith in the Wikipedia project, guidance or recommendations would be appreciated instead of bans and rebukes. A look at this accounts history should show an interest in an absence of knowledge pertaining to Native Americans in Canada and limiting false embellishment of a Chinese history in Canada. Regardless of where I post, it's up to those reviewing the content to decide. I thought Wikipedia was an advocate for free thought, free information and freedom. pdubdubs

Decline reason:

You are very much mistaken. Indeed, several of our key policies, including WP:NPOV and WP:NOR, prohibit that sort of thing. Additionally, your new username is inappropriate. Yamla (talk) 18:17, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I have reviewed WP:NPOV and WP:NOR and I have not broken any of the stated rules. My username is not inappropriate. The censorship and harassment is unwarranted. I have done no advertising and all my edits are of factual nature.pdubdubs

Decline reason:

As you are continuing to refuse to listen to what you are being told (by four admins so far), I have revoked your ability to edit this talk page and prevent further waste of time. Should you some time decide you will listen and will follow the directions you are being given, please see WP:UTRS. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 18:52, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
