Block message:
Autoblocked because your IP address was recently used by "ASPESI". The reason given for ASPESI's block is: " Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended for publicity and/or promotional purposes. 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, celebrity or other well-known individual, 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. See WP:FAQ/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. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead. What can I do now? You are still welcome to write about something other than your company, organization, or clients. If you do intend to make useful contributions on 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. ".

Dear Administrator, My name is Menghan and I am here hoping to seek a solution in order to have a proper and unbiased article about one of our clients:Aspesi. As my colleague (user name: ASPESI) who is currently blocked due to the violation of conflict of interest, he has asked me for help. I understand the COI still exists but I am willing to do whatever it takes to resolve any issues that may occur. We both understand the mistake he had made and it was wrong not to fully understand the rules and act based solely upon assumption. We have reviewed the rules again and really hope the past mistake can be fixed. In order to show the good faith, I propose the content as the following:

Please let me know if this revision is acceptable. Thank you very much for your time and help. Regards, Menghan — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wangmh5 (talk • contribs)
- Menghan, I have repaired your unblock request - hopefully adequately for you.
- Secondly, I fear that you do not understand all of the reasons for the block of your "colleague". Not only was their username invalid, but for spamming the encyclopedia. As you have massive conflict of interest, it is impossible for you to write non-biased, non-promotional "article". Indeed, your sample above is nothing but an advertisement. There is nothing that remotely suggests the notability required to be in an encyclopedia. Remember, this is not a not business directory (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 10:55, 25 May 2012 (UTC)
