Decline reason:

Since all of your edits are related to Parature, there's no reason for you to change your username. However, I have changed your block to a softblock so that you can simply register a new username, including SmilyMia, which is available. Email me if you have trouble.

Speedy deletion of Parature

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Parature requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Toytown Mafia (talk) 18:58, 16 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Parature deletion

One of the reasons why your article was nominated for deletion is that you shouldn't write articles about your own company. This would be a conflict of interest. You can read more about these guidelines here. Toytown Mafia (talk) 21:05, 16 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Well I suspect that since your username is almost identical the company's name, you work for the company. Please see Wikipedia:BFAQ, which discusses this issue. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Toytown Mafia (talkcontribs) 21:33, 16 June 2008 (UTC)Reply
 
This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia, because it has been identified as an account used for promotion of a company or group, with a username that implies that this has been done by that company or group. See Wikipedia:Business' FAQ and Wikipedia:Conflict of interest.

This kind of activity is considered spamming and is forbidden by Wikipedia policies. In addition, the use of a username like yours violates our username policy.

You may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|your reason here}} below or emailing the administrator who blocked you.

Your reason should include your response to this issue and a new username you wish to adopt that does not violate our username policy (specifically, understand that accounts are for individuals, not companies or groups, and that your username should reflect this). Usernames that have already been taken are listed here.
