September 2019[edit]

Warning icon Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at John Curtin, you may be blocked from editing. for this edit to many former Australian PM pages Gnangarra 01:57, 24 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Gnangarra why did you post this threatening message for someone adding links to the National Archives to Australian prime ministers? Not appropriate. Ivar the Boneful (talk) 10:58, 24 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you both for your messages. My edits were not meant to be disruptive. I simply added resources to the bottom of the relevant pages - in this case, research guides published by the National Archives of Australia, outlining records that are relevant to Australian Prime Ministers.

Blocked for creating the spammy Artefact Heritage Services article after a year in which you didn't edit at all. If you would like to return to editing, please provide an unblock request which demonstrates that you will not use Wikipedia for advertising purposes in the future.

Request reason:

I must apologise, I didn't meant to contravene Wikipedia policy. I did try to keep the entry descriptive rather than promotional. The reason I haven't edited for over a year is that my previous edits to other articles, which simply added pertinent, published references, were all reversed. I'll leave it to you as to whether you wish to unblock me Glyphodon (talk) 05:31, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

What you call descriptive is considered promotional on Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not for merely telling about a subject like an organization. Wikipedia summarizes what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about an organization, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable organization. To be unblocked, you will need to explain any connections you might have to the topics of your edits, and tell what edits you are interested in making if unblocked. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 08:17, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. 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.
