Request reason:

Hi All, Thanks for providing your feedback. I would appreciate if you would consider unblocking our account. It is the first time, I have posted our company profile on Wikipedia. If our content appears as advertising or promotional, we will make the required changes and would like to resubmit again. We assure you that this mistake will not occur in the future. Kindly unblock our account Anandparam (talk) 08:52, 14 June 2018 (UTC)

Decline reason:

You will need to indicate (by explaining in your own words) that you have read and understand WP:COI and WP:PAID. You will also need to indicate what you intend to edit about other than your company, as you will not be unblocked so you can continue to promote your company. As such, I am declining this request. 331dot (talk) 09:21, 14 June 2018 (UTC)

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.

• I'll explain a little more: Merely telling the world about your company is considered promotional on Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not social media that hosts "profiles", it is an encyclopedia that hosts articles about subjects shown to be notable in independent reliable sources. In this case, your company would need to meet the guidelines written at WP:ORG. Wikipedia has no interest in what a company wants to say about itself; only in what independent sources state. In order for you to be successful, you would need to forget everything you know about your company and any and all literature it publishes about itself, and only write based on what independent sources state. This is usually difficult for people in your position to do. If the only thing you want to do here is edit about your company, it is unlikely you will be unblocked. 331dot (talk) 09:21, 14 June 2018 (UTC)

It is also worth mentioning that the use of "we" and "our" in your appeal strongly suggests this is a shared account; we will not unblock it as long as we believe that it is being used by more than one person. Yunshui ^雲_水 09:24, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
