You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for making legal threats or taking legal action. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

You are not allowed to edit Wikipedia while the threats stand or the legal action is unresolved.  Rschen7754 05:32, 22 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

We are a new user and were not fully aware of the rules. We wish to resolve the dispute through Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents peacefully as recommended by Rs. We hope you'll recognise our concerns are not based on malice, but the view that we do not believe our brand should be subject to trolling on the Wikipedia platform by someone without expertise in or knowledge of our business, or industry sector.

Decline reason:

It is necessary, before unblock can be considered, that you unequivocably state here that you have no intention of pursuing any and all legal threats previously suggested or intimated against wikipedia or any of its contributors. Then you have to explain who "we" are, as a wikipedia account is for one person only. Also please note that while we can and will remove inappropriate posting on any article which comes to our attention, we cannot prevent these postings except by preventing all edits to the page in question , which we do only in response to persistent vandalism.--Anthony Bradbury"talk" 16:22, 22 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

We have no intention of pursuing any and all legal threats previously suggested or intimated against wikipedia or any of its contributors. "We" are a legal person and not a natural person. We are a corporate body, thus count as one person. Can you explain how it is possible to prevent damage to our brand if we are not allowed to edit because of WP:COI? Our 'Wicigate' investigation has found that public figures are being denied the right to edit out potentially defamatory or biased content about them because of WP:COI, and yet one cannot take actions against individual users via the platform either. Does Wikipedia have any plans to change its policies so that legal or natural people can remove factual errors about them even if they would normally fall within WP:COI? It our view that it is wrong that users of Wikipedia can troll or otherwise vandalise the pages of legal or natural persons without any recourse open to those parties.

"We" are a legal person and not a natural person. This in itself is reason not to unblock. --jpgordon::==( o ) 19:56, 22 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
