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

If 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. Glen (talk) 07:41, 9 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Requested username:

Request reason:

We are sorry for any misunderstanding created. We would like to put in a request to unblock our page. We also want to change the username and we only aim to provide information about ZRK Group. We would also want to create a sub-page by the name of the person handling the Zrk Group. Kindly let us know how to go about it. If there is anything we are doing wrong, kindly let us know so we can rectify our mistake. We would like to know more about how to add information to our page in compliance with the rules and regulation of Wikipedia.

Decline reason:

That username would still violate WP:USERNAME. You also didn't address your violation of WP:COI. As this is your only goal, you won't be unblocked. Yamla (talk) 12:22, 23 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Requested username:

Request reason:

Hi. Sorry for the misunderstanding. We have not used any promotion or advertising if that is the reason for the block, we only posted information about the company.
We also want to change the username to ZRK Group. It is a company which is the largest manufacturer of MDF and Particleboards in Central Asia. Here is a link of the company webpage: https://zrkgroup.com/
We only wish to provide a platform for the company to give information to people regarding the company and its owner.

Decline reason:

Wikipedia is not a place where companies tell the world about themselves. I suggest you use social media instead. PhilKnight (talk) 19:43, 24 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Hi
Sorry this is our first time using this platform. Can you please guide us as to how to get our account unblocked?
As for company information, there are other wood manufacturing companies as well that have a page on wikipedia such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kronospan.
We would like to do the same as they are doing and we will be careful not to go against the wikipedia rules and regulation.
If you could please guide us it will be really helpful.

Again, you misunderstand the purpose of Wikipedia. It is not an advertising platform or a place for a company to talk about itself. Companies with pages have pages because independent people created the articles because those companies had significant, independent coverage in reliable sources. And when pages exist that are discovered to only exist because of violations of WP:PROMO, they will be deleted.
Even after you change your name to something appropriate, I would be extremely surprised if any admin unblocked you without the condition that you don't try to write about your company. In addition, companies aren't allowed to have Wikipedia accounts, only individuals. And those individuals can not share their account with others.
What an administrator will almost certainly ask when evaluating a future unblock request: what specific edits do you plan to make to Wikipedia in order to build an encyclopedia, that have nothing to do with your company? CoffeeCrumbs (talk) 14:13, 7 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
