Hello, welcome to my talk page!
If you want to leave a message, please do it at the bottom as a new section, for better formatting. You can do that by simply pressing the plus sign (+) or "new section" on the top of this page. And don't forget to sign your messages with four tildes, like this: ~~~~

Attention: I prefer to keep discussions unfragmented. If you leave a comment for me here, I will most likely respond to it on this same page–my talk page–as an effort to keep the entire conversation in one place. By the same token, if I leave a comment on your talk page, please respond to it there. Remember, we can use our watchlist to keep track of when responses are made. At the same time, feel free to send an alert to me on this page about a comment you have left elsewhere.

Thank you!

Request reason:

I hereby declare that I have been paid for the articles that I created, but not for all. There are some non-paid articles too. I assure you that I will do the positive contribution in future. In case I do any paid editing, will declare it in advance. I request you kindly unblock me.

Decline reason:

You were asked about this in December last year and again a few days back and did nothing but ignore us and show a wilful disdain for our terms of service and policies. —SpacemanSpiff 00:58, 26 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I totally agree with you but I was afraid of being blocked that is why I was hesitating to disclose my paid editing. Now that I have disclosed all the articles which I have been paid for. I would request you to kindly unblock me. Alan Hardest (talk) 18:47, 28 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

This doesn't address your abuse of multiple accounts. Note, though, at this point it's hard to imagine any statement from you that we could trust enough to unblock. You've shown we can't take you at your work and we can't trust you here on Wikipedia. You are welcome to request another block review, but you'll have to be significantly more convincing.

Request reason:

I would ask that you please reconsider my block system. I understand that I did wrong by not declaring paid editing. An unblock will be appreciated and I will only use this one moving forward and will abide by all of Wikipedia's guidelines. In case I do any paid editing, will declare it in advance. Alan Hardest (talk) 16:09, 1 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

This seems to just be repeating the paragraph you added below. You subsequently lied about creating those articles, and about using multiple accounts. This is in addition to your previous integrity problems with undisclosed paid editing, even after being prompted multiple times. It does not appear that you can be taken for your word, and requests to make more paid edits seems poorly timed. Kuru (talk) 16:25, 1 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Were do you list the articles you wrote for pay? Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 00:55, 26 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
I am sharing all the articles (paid and non paid)

The other problem that has since been discoverage is your use of multiple accounts. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 20:48, 26 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
Before any unblock is granted, I want to see a plausible and rational explanation behind your steady denial about PAID/COI editing, till you ended up being blocked and a complete list of the articles that you were paid to create and/or edit in any manner.Winged Blades of GodricOn leave 08:21, 26 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
