May 2024[edit]

Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because it 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:

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.

To do this, 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 your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken and in use by another account. You can search to 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 still available.

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 {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} 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. Orange Mike | Talk 14:20, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Requested username:

Request reason:

I am not an ashman's assistant - I just thought that would be an efficient way to remember what I was trying to help my friend with.

Decline reason:

What you are describing is a clear conflict of interest; see WP:COI. Yamla (talk) 18:48, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am not using this for advertising - just to help a friend who asked me to look into how he can get his wikipedia page restored. Ashmanassistant (talk) 18:44, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It is? But I don't work for him. I am not in PR (thank god)

I just am someone who knows him and he trusts, who is also organized. Apparently someone needs to send an administrator or editor sources that verify his notability. I have the time to do this so I offered to help. Am not interested in being an editor. hope this helps you understand. Ashmanassistant (talk) 19:04, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for pointing me to the COI description page.

I am not interested in editing anything for Noel Ashman; sources have been requested to restore his bio.I would like to provide them - which to me is the below:

you may propose changes on talk pages (by using the {{edit COI}} template), or by posting a note at the COI noticeboard, so that they can be peer-reviewed;

Requested username:

Lalasass (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

Request reason:

In addition, I would like to change my user name to lalasass so as to not have an account associated with the concerns raised. I now fully understand wikipedia - and the COI rules - and will of course abide by all Wiki rules.

Again my apologies for my confusion. Ashmanassistant (talk) 19:47, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Changing your username- though necessary- doesn't eliminate the concerns with your account. An "editor" is anyone who participates in building this encyclopedia- that includes providing sources. You only seem to be interested in providing sources, and not actually writing about this person- that's not usually how Wikipedia works, especially when the topic involved does not currently have an article. An article topic being salted usually means that there has been repeated and/or sustained efforts (by one or multiple people) to attempt to re-create something that was removed, usually for a good reason that isn't being addressed. I don't see any grounds here to remove the block. 331dot (talk) 08:31, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
