Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing because of the following problems: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

You may request a change of name and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions other than promoting your business or organization. To do this, first search Special:CentralAuth for available usernames that comply with the username policy. Once you have found an acceptable username, 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. In your reasons, you must:

  • Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
  • 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.
  • Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.
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|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. Longhair\talk 01:28, 26 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I was updating the company Dietz & Watson's page to make the information more relevant and current. I added an external link to the company's clothing store in the body of a section about the launch of that store. I didn't realize this is not allowed; if I am unblocked I will not add any external links (outside of the references). Thanks.

Decline reason:

You have not proposed a new username as instructed. You have not complied with the conflict of interest and paid editing policies. Nor have you told what edits you wish to make that are unrelated to any conflict of interest that you have. For these reasons, I am declining your request. To be unblocked, please follow the instructions above. 331dot (talk) 01:55, 26 January 2021 (UTC)Reply


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Requested username:

Request reason:

Hi. Apologies I am new to this. I have picked a new username this time. As for the paid editing policy, from what I read i think I will place a disclaimer in the 'talk' section of the Dietz & Watson page and that will be satisfactory? I'm an employee of the advertising company hired by Dietz & Watson. I believe all content besides the external link that I had added to the page was simple fact. My purpose is to update the page with more current and relevant information, as it was becoming out-of-date.

Decline reason:

No thanks. If this is your intention, this is the end of the line. If instead you are interested in contributing in areas for which you have no conflict of interest, follow the instructions, pick an appropriate username (rtopcontent is not appropriate), and tell us what you plan to write about instead.

Requested username:

Request reason:

Ok, I didn't know there are restrictions on the username ( i guess it can't have the word 'content' in it? ). I read the links the first mod sent to me, and it says on the paid-contribution page that a user is allowed to edit a page of a client if they disclose this information. But I see that near the bottom of that page it also says this is strongly discouraged, and that I should instead make suggestions on the talk page. Is that something I would be allowed to do? Make the suggestions and wait for someone else to review them?
Please include a decline or accept reason.

Your choice of new username closely matches the name of your employer, being Red Tettemer O'Connell + Partners which is against the WP:USERNAME policy. -- Longhair\talk

Request reason:

I have chosen a new username that I believe to be innocuous. If this one is accepted, I will refrain from editing the page directly and instead make suggestions on the talk page, in addition to disclosing my relation to the subject on my talk page.

Decline reason:

Can I please get an update on whether or not I can change my username and proceed according to the rules? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rtopdevelopers (talkcontribs)

Is there anything you wish to edit about as an individual that is unrelated to your conflict of interest? 331dot (talk) 10:01, 2 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
