Hello, I'm Oshwah. I noticed that in this edit to Opera Solutions, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 19:24, 17 January 2020 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Opera Solutions, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 19:25, 17 January 2020 (UTC)

we would really like to delete the page and start over as 90% of the content is no longer accurate, we understand WIKI is run by volunteers and it takes a lot of time and effort on your end. I completely understand and respect that, i have noticed in the past there are pop ups for donations and regardless of the outcome i would like to make a donation towards WIKI for all your help and effort on this issue alone.  I can provide you documentation stating the legal name change and how i would like to make other changes.

Hello! As you are not using the unblock template as instructed, no-one is seeing your edits. The only reason I am here to respond is because I patrol recent changes. I am not an admin and I cannot help you. Please use the unblock template. --moonythedwarf (Braden N.) 14:50, 22 January 2020 (UTC)

To properly request unblock, please follow the instructions in the block notice carefully. You may highlight and copy the template when viewing this page, then open the edit window and paste it; then fill in the requested information. You may also type it in manually. This will be much easier on a computer and not a phone, though if you are using a phone you can use the desktop version of Wikipedia in a browser. 331dot (talk) 15:20, 22 January 2020 (UTC)

Unblock request

This user's request to be unblocked to request a change in username has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

Requested username:

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

Request reason:

i am an employee of ElectrifAi, which was previously named "Opera Solutions" and is currently described in the Wikipedia article "Opera Solutions". I have been informed in the Wikipedia-en-help chat that my current username is also problematic, as it represents the company and not me as a person. I would like to be renamed to "ZorbaKiki". I understand that I will probably not be unblocked to continue directly editing the article about my employer. I would like to be unblocked under a condition: I will not edit the article Opera Solutions directly again. Instead, I agree to request every change on the talk page of the article.ElectrifAiIT (talk) 16:16, 22 January 2020 (UTC)

Accept reason:

Per our agreement, you have been unblocked under the following condition:

ZorbaKiki is indefinitely prohibited from editing the article Opera Solutions directly. This condition applies to the article, not a specific name. If the article is moved to a different name later, the condition still applies to the renamed article.

See WP:CONDUNBLOCK for details. This condition may be appealed only to ToBeFree or to Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard.

Note: Attempting to advertise the company in other articles will lead to a block without further warning. Any edit requests must be made at the talk page of the article. Edits to any other article should not be done with a conflict of interest. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 17:26, 22 January 2020 (UTC)

Syntax fixed. It was me who provided these instructions. Materialscientist, would me converting this to a partial block be okay for you? ~ ToBeFree (talk) 16:18, 22 January 2020 (UTC)

i agree to an indefinite partial block to enforce the restriction

I will create my user page after being renamed.

I will use my user page to disclose my connection to ElectrifAi. ElectrifAiIT (talk) 16:33, 22 January 2020 (UTC)

Syntax fixed. Request marked as "on hold", pending approval by Materialscientist. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 16:47, 22 January 2020 (UTC)

Re-opening request: Approved (diff) with one caveat: Attempting to advertise the company in other articles will lead to a block without further warning. Edit requests must be made at Talk:Opera_Solutions. Edits to any other page should not be done with a conflict of interest. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 17:06, 22 January 2020 (UTC)

Please rename the user if appropriate, then ping me; I'll then log the restriction and take over the block. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 17:08, 22 January 2020 (UTC)

globally renamed ElectrifAiIT to ZorbaKiki

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, ZorbaKiki. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

• avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
• propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
• disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
• avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
• do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 17:34, 22 January 2020 (UTC)

Next step: Creating your user page

Hi ZorbaKiki,

As the next step, before making any other edits, please create your user page (User:ZorbaKiki) with a concise, factual disclosure of your connection to ElectrifAi.

Thank you very much in advance, and best regards,
~ ToBeFree (talk) 17:39, 22 January 2020 (UTC)
