October 2019[edit]

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. Additionally, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for your contributions to Wikipedia, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

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. To do so, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page, replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason for thinking that the block was an error, and publish the page.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

Recognizing that editing pages relevant to one's own material is contrary to Wikipedia's policies, I have abided by this policy for years. Even when pages about myself or my company were inaccurate or were considered unsuitable by Wikipedia standards, I have not edited the pages, recognizing that Wikipedia's policy discourages such behavior. Recently, an open request was made to update the Ironclaw page to comply with Wikipedia guidelines, as the topic's noteworthiness was in dispute. Recognizing the need, and that no one else had volunteered, I have provided the requested information. I am using an account that clearly announces that the page is relevant to me, because I respect the policies of Wikipedia. These edits have not been made to aggrandize my own interests, but to inform the public and to better maintain the quality of Wikipedia articles.

Decline reason:

First, unblocking is impossible until you successfully change your username since it is in violation of our WP:USERNAME policy. Please use Template:Unblock-un to do this. Second, in relation to WP:COI, you will need to elaborate in what form you have "abided by this policy for years" since this account has only been registered for three days. Disclosure of previous or alternate accounts would be expected. Chetsford (talk) 10:38, 7 October 2019 (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.
