December 2016

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy or request a change of username.

You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose.

If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page.

You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page. Thank you.

Requested username:

food sys editor (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

Request reason:

would like to change my user name to be better representative of my interests which are to keep information about players in the food system up to date FFC 2017 (talk) 16:31, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

Decline reason:

I assume that FFC represents Food Future Co, which is not acceptable. There is no reason at all why your username should indicate your editing interests, and every reason why it should not. Please choose another name; be creative! --Anthony Bradbury^"talk" 22:36, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

Requested username:

sgj_524 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

Request reason:

need to update user name to get unblocked! hopefully this suggestion of sgj_524 is accepted FFC 2017 (talk) 02:33, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

Decline reason:

The suggested username is fine, but I'm not convinced you won't return to promotional or disruptive editing. Based on your message below, your company is attempting to control how it's covered on Wikipedia, but companies do not own their articles. Wikipedia covers what's been published in reliable secondary sources, not what the company wants us to. ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 22:25, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

• This addresses the username issue, but what sorts of edits do you intend to make if unblocked? You appear like you may have a conflict of interest with the only article you've edited thus far. If you are an employee of that company or being paid by them, you would need to disclose this as per WP:PAID. ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 04:19, 15 December 2016 (UTC)

Request reason:

Hi, I do work for the company. Wikipedia's results are the first to pop-up for our company when one searches for FoodFuture on Google. We not only just went through a recent rebrand, we also are constantly updating our terms and programming... as is the way of a startup. I have no problem disclosing that I work for the company. It is just essential that all online material about our company is accurate! FFC 2017 (talk) 22:21, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

Decline reason:

Procedurally decline duplicate request. Handling above. ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 22:25, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

Request reason:

Ok, understood. Can I submit this article for your review and to add edits to our page as a third party? https://agfundernews.com/from-food-x-to-foodfutureco-shen-tongs-reflections-on-launching-an-accelerator.html

Accept reason:

Unblocked pursuant to the condition not to directly edit articles related to Food Future, Inc. as per the below. Note that you do also need to change your username as detailed above. ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 01:34, 17 December 2016 (UTC)

• I'd be willing to unblock you conditional on your agreement not to directly edit articles related to Food Future, Inc., broadly construed. You would be able to make suggestions on the articles' talk pages (such as Talk:Food Future, Inc.), which other editors may examine and action upon if appropriate. If this condition is violated, you would be blocked indefinitely, and this restriction may be appealed to the community at WP:AN or to me after six months. Is this condition acceptable to you? If yes, I'll unblock you. If no, I'll leave the request for another administrator to process, as I already declined the above one. ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 23:00, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

I accept! I will most definitely be making suggestions for FoodFutureCo and other affiliates but will not directly edit this page or anything related to our company. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by FFC 2017 (talk • contribs) 23:06, 16 December 2016 (UTC)
