You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for advertising or promotion. From your contributions, this seems to be your only purpose. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

This user spammed multiple articles as an IP which were reverted. After spamming again, the user got this reply from user:Kkmurray, but decided to ignore that and post the same spam links again. SpinningSpark 17:13, 20 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

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:

Should not be blocked- adding EDUCATIONAL content to pages related to nanoHUB (some examples include Monte Carlo Method, Quantum Wire, and other nanotechnology topics) on wiki. nanoHUB.org is where I am getting all the added content. TO: Spinningspark

Decline reason:

You've added no content; you've only added links to a single website, just as the IP did. And, yes, you did receive a reply, here. --jpgordon^{::==( o )} 14:23, 1 June 2015 (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.

Also, did not decide to ignore user:Kkmurray, I messaged him back to ask why content kept being deleted and didnt receive a reply back. Toristevoo1223 (talk) 14:10, 1 June 2015 (UTC)Toristevoo1223}[reply]

Toristevoo, you need to understand that you were not blocked so much for the content of the links you provided, but that you continued to add them after other editors had removed or challenged them. This is called edit warring and is something that attracts administrator intervention here as it poisons the working atmosphere. See WP:BRD for a better way of working. Note that the primary goal here is to write an encyclopaedia, not provide links to where information can be found. We much prefer that our own articles are improved rather than pointing to someone elses site.

Also, when you ask someone a question, you should make sure that you watchlist the page you asked the question on. If you do that, the system will notify you if the page has changed (which may mean a reply). SpinningSpark 14:45, 1 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
