December 2021[edit]

Your account has been blocked indefinitely 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.

You may request a change of name and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions other than promoting your business or organization. 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 {{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. In your reasons, you must:

  • Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
  • 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.
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|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.

Requested username:

Request reason:

I am new to contributing to Wikipedia. I have now read the helps and rules for selecting a username and the reasons for it. The username I first selected was not intended to be promotional and the article is not intended to be promotional of our organization. I am a volunteer and our organization is not intending to make any income from this article. The purpose of the article is to share our elite military members with the world in an additional platform besides our own website. Our membership is amazing and we want to share and educate others who are interested in our work. I respectfully request that you understand and accept my new username.

Decline reason:

Your choice of new username would be acceptable. However, what you describe as your purpose here is considered promotional here, you don't have to be soliciting or selling something. Wikipedia is not a place to merely tell the world about something even if it is a good cause. Wikipedia summarizes what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about an organization, showing how it meets Wikipedia's special definition of a notable organization. Wikipedia is not interested in what an organization says about itself, only in what others completely unconnected with it choose to say about it. I hope that you find a place to tell about your good organization, but this is not the place to. Please read conflict of interest. If you are interested in being a general contributor and editing in areas unrelated to your conflict of interest, please tell what those areas might be. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 16:30, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
