Welcome to Wikipedia. I saw your changes to Herbert Dreiseitl, and I noticed that the username you have chosen, "Atelierdreiseitl", seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of a group, company or website. Please note that Wikipedia does not allow usernames that are promotional or shared by multiple people. Please take a moment to create a new account or request a username change that represents only yourself as an individual. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and remember that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you. --Drm310 (talk) 14:54, 4 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Arkadien Winnenden requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Ghorpaapi (talk) 09:23, 4 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Replaceable fair use File:Arkadien Winnenden, Stuttgart Germany, 2011.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Arkadien Winnenden, Stuttgart Germany, 2011.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that this media item is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails the first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media item could be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media item is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the file discussion page, write the reason why this media item is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fut.Perf. 20:48, 5 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended for publicity and/or promotional purposes. If you intend to edit constructively in other topic areas, you may be granted the right to continue under a change of username. Please read the following carefully.
Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, website or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements, and using Wikipedia for promotion. Wikipedia has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but such groups are generally discouraged from using Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.

Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?

Probably not, although if you can demonstrate a pattern of future editing in strict accordance with our neutral point of view policy, you may be granted this right. See Wikipedia's FAQ for Organizations for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, organization, or clients. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit again.

What can I do now?

If you have no interest in writing about some other topic than your organization, group, company, or product, you will probably not be allowed to edit Wikipedia again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.

If you do intend to make useful contributions about some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:

  • Add the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} on your user talk page.
  • Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers 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 this reason, you must:
    • Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the 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 by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. —EncMstr (talk) 13:47, 8 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free media (File:Atelier Dreiseitl Logo 2013.jpg)

edit

  Thanks for uploading File:Atelier Dreiseitl Logo 2013.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:02, 10 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

This user's request to be unblocked to request a change in username has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without a good reason (see the blocking policy). Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Requested username:

Request reason:

I understand the username AtelierDreiseitl is a conflict of interest because it directly relates to the article name. I also understand the edits I have made recently also indicate conflict of interest because they have a promotional tone.

I honestly admit the tone of my edits so far is inappropriate for Wikipedia, but this is not what I intended for the final articles. I had, in fact, assumed that editing as a userspace draft is work in progress (as stated by Wikipedia at the top of my drafts), and would not be reviewed until submitted. Therefore, I was in the middle of writing and found I was blocked before I could make the necessary changes, add references and further content. Should I be unblocked, I wish to make useful contributions to the article Green Infrastructure with regard to terminology additions and more worldwide information. Should you need to see evidence of the tone I originally intended, I would be happy to send an example, so as to avoid the same mistake again. I hope you will see this instance is an honest mistake on my part and I now understand that I must correct my tone of article before pasting into my Wikipedia userspace draft.

Decline reason:

Still violates username policy, but block revised to allow creating new account; see note below. —EncMstr (talk) 18:21, 17 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Here are a few key questions:

You are currently blocked because your username appears directly related to a company, group or product that you have been promoting, contrary to the username policy. Changing the username will not allow you to violate the 3 important principles above. Daniel Case (talk) 16:43, 16 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

I do understand that Wikipedia is not a business directory. As I explained above, this was not my final intention. There are other articles connected with my original subject which are already on Wikipedia, so I assumed I would be able to add more as the other articles have proved notable. I understand conflict of interest. I realise that my previous edits have a promotional tone, but as explained above, I was drafting the articles and did not get a chance to add references and further independent sources. My intention was to share the most accurate, up-to-date information that is available. With regard to editing the Green Infrastructure article, this article already exists so I understand to be notable. I have found many more publications and information on the subject that is not currently included in the Green Infrastructure Wikipedia article. Therefore I understand this to be verifiable evidence for the notability of this subject, and wish to keep the encyclopedia up-to-date by contributing to this article.

I have revised your editing block. You are still blocked for violating our username policy, but now you can create a new account. Do that by logging out and then clicking on "Create account" which you can complete in less than a minute. If you want to "rename" your editing history to be associated with your new username, there is a lengthy procedure which may take up to a few days. Since you have only a hand full of edits, I personally wouldn't bother. From your new account, you can read and edit your works in progress, etc., but good form in user space is to copy (or move) those subpages to your new user's subpages. —EncMstr (talk) 18:18, 17 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Your draft article, User:Atelierdreiseitl/Arkadien Winnenden

edit
 

Hello, Atelierdreiseitl. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Arkadien Winnenden".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. DannyS712 (talk) 20:05, 23 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
