editIf you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization, you may request unblock and a username change. In your reasons, you must:
- Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement; and
- 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; and
- Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked; and
- Provide a new username.
To do this, 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 your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked.
Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken and in use by another account. You can go here to search and see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If the search returns that no global account with that username exists, that means it is available to be taken.
Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}
at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your reason here" with the reasons you believe the block was an error, and publish the page. ✗plicit 14:59, 16 February 2024 (UTC)Unblock BoltonCentralSchoolNY

Request reason:
Hello, My name is Jennifer Carlson and I am the PK-12 Computer Coordinator at Bolton Central School in Bolton Landing, New York. The school is interested in creating a Wikipedia article for Bolton Central School. The Wikipedia page we were using as a guide was Schalmont Central School (Schalmont High School). On Friday, February 16, 2024, we submitted a draft for Bolton Central School. Later that day, it was speedy deleted by a user named Theroadislong (talk). Reasons for the speedy deletion were that the sources were not in-depth, reliable, secondary and independent of the subject. We were not trying to advertise or promote Bolton Central School. We were just trying to create a page similar to the Schalmont High School Wikipedia page that I referenced above. What suggestions do you have for us at this point? I look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, Jennifer Carlson. PK-12 Computer Coordinator Bolton Central School 26 Horicon Avenue Bolton Landing, NY 12814 www.boltoncsd.org BoltonCentralSchoolNY (talk) 14:08, 1 March 2024 (UTC)BoltonCentralSchoolNY (talk) 14:16, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

Unblock discussion
editDue to the promotional nature of your edits and your wp:conflict of interest, I cannot see unblocking this account to edit about this subject, at least not until you have shown the ability to edit non promotionally in other areas. You will need to describe what non promotional edits you will make not about this subject. (The subtext of this request is that you are only here to promote this school.) Please adjust your unblock request accordingly. You also need to propose and individual a new user name, as pointed out in the block notice. Thanks. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 16:13, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
- The article you mention is a poor example to use, as it is problematic itself, and I have marked it as such. Using any random article as a model or example is not a good idea, see other stuff exists. If you want to use other articles as a model, use those that are classified as good articles. 331dot (talk) 22:16, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

- please don't post article content here, I have removed it...please note that articles are based on independent sources NOT want you want to say about your school. Theroadislong (talk) 13:34, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
- You seem to have a fundamental misunderstanding of how Wikipedia works. Wikipedia is not a directory, so an organization is not entitled to have a Wikipedia article just because it exists. All topics must be notable by Wikipedia's definition to merit inclusion. In the specific case of a public school, it is treated the same as an organization; so it must meet the notability criteria for companies and organizations. For this to happen, the school must have already received significant coverage in multiple reliable and independent sources. We have no interest in what an organization wishes to say about itself, as this is an inherent conflict of interest. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 15:50, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
