August 2022 edit

 
Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, club, organization, company, or website, I have blocked this account. Please take a moment to either create a new account, or request a change of username of your current account here. The new username must represent only yourself as an individual and comply with Wikipedia's username policy.

You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

Please also note that you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87", but not "SEO Manager at XYZ Company".

If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page.

You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text

{{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}

at the bottom of your talk page. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names.

Hello, The Blade of the Northern Lights. Doesn't this username comply with the "Sara Smith at XYZ Company" standard? Cullen328 (talk) 16:50, 17 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
@The Blade of the Northern Lights I was about to say the same thing as Cullen. It's a very hard to read username, but doesn't strike me inappropriate for being promotional, either. Nick Moyes (talk) 18:44, 17 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
Now that you say it, I can see it; because of the lack of spacing I didn't catch that was meant to be read as "Z block at". I have to step away for a little while, if either of you unblocks before I get a chance that's fine. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 19:03, 17 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
I've unblocked. To Zblockattoendaddictiondotorg, you may remove the block notice and you should be able to edit as normal. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 18:49, 18 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

Managing a conflict of interest edit

  Hello, Zblockattoendaddictiondotorg. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 21:56, 26 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
