Welcome! edit

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions seem to be advertising or for promotional purposes. Wikipedia does not allow advertising. For more information on this, see:

If you still have questions, there is a new contributor's help page, or you can write {{helpme}} below this message along with a question and someone will be along to answer it shortly. You may also find the following pages useful for a general introduction to Wikipedia:

I hope you enjoy editing Wikipedia! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. Feel free to write a note on the bottom of my talk page if you want to get in touch with me. Again, welcome! Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 20:27, 9 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

 
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?

If you have no interest in writing about some other topic than your organization, group, company, or product, you will probably not be allowed to edit Wikipedia again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.

If you do intend to make useful contributions about 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. Alexf(talk) 12:43, 10 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

Requested username:

Request reason:

sir actually I didn't knew that adding companies name is promotion as their were so many hospitals name which were already mention in the article, so I thought I should add popular companies names also, sir if my purpose was promotion then I would have mention only one name but I have mention all the popular names. And sir I am very sorry that I have done such edits which seemed to be promotion

And Sir I assure you that I will not repeat the edits again in future which I made and which has caused me blocking, Sir as I am living in Jalandhar,Punjab so I am familiar about this place and cities near to it and I want to add popular places and good pictures of places of Jalandhar and nearby cities because I knew many photographers so they can send me the pictures of places which are Popular and then I will upload here with their name, so sir please unblock me,

as my name is Manveer so I think that this username is good for me

Decline reason:

Your proposed username is fine. It is also good that you will not engage in promotion. However, there are two problems with your unblock request.
  • First, be aware that Wikipedia is not a travel guide or tourism guide. I am not sure if your intent is to treat Wikipedia that way, but I felt I should point this out to you.
  • The second problem is that your stated intention on Wikipedia is to engage in copyright violations by uploading the works of other people. This is illegal activity in the United States where Wikipedia resides, so Wikipedia can not accept such works unless there is verifiable evidence that the owners of the photographs have placed them in the public domain, or Wikipedia has received permission from the photographers themselves. It would be best if they uploaded their own photos, even better would be if you uploaded photos that you took yourself.
You are welcome to submit another unblock request if you can explain your intentions after understanding the above two points. ~Amatulić (talk) 17:17, 10 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

Sir I mean I knew popular places but I am living here since my birth and moreover my parents also are living here for so many years, so I will not only provide images but also details of the Jalandhar which my parents and I knew and All the things which are required for encyclopedia, and sir I am not violating any copyright work because I knew this copyright polices so I have also told my 2 friends who were going to give me 2 images one each to send copyright mail to wikipedia here permissions-en@wikimedia.org and they have already sent it and they have also mention my name Manveer and banned username:glassworld that they have given me right to use their images, so please sir unblock me, thanks

Decline reason:

Your response to the question below does not convince me that you understand our policy on original research and verifiability. Please read those policies before appealing again. Hersfold (t/a/c) 21:15, 18 August 2012 (UTC)Reply


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 am sorry that you have had a bad start here, and I really, honestly, do not want to make it worse. But please note that adding things just on the basis that you, or your friends and family, know them is prohibited under original research policy.--Anthony Bradbury"talk" 17:34, 12 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
Glassworld, please respond to this^^^. Max Semenik (talk) 10:46, 15 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

@Hersfold sir I have read the polices and I have promised also that I will not ignore wikipedia polices and still if you have doubt in me then I am helpless as I am not able to understand how can I convince you that I am sorry about my mistake and I will not repeat again. if still you are not convince then tell me how should I convince you that I am sorry about my mistake ?? Glassworld (talk) 20:37, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

Accept reason:

The blocking admin doesn't appear to be around right now, but on the strength of the commitments you have given, I have unblocked your account. Please follow the instructions at WP:CHU to request a change of username (you should do it before you make any more edits, and wait until a bureaucrat makes the change for you - they are busy, so it might take a few days). Happy editing. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 17:25, 29 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

@Zebedee Sir I promise you and all admins that I will not make any edit without any reliable sources and also no images will be uploaded which violates Wikipedia's copyright policies.
@Zebedee thanks a lot sir for unblocking me and sir I have requested here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Changing_username/Simple for the change of my username.

Your attention needed at WP:CHU edit

Hello. A bureaucrat or clerk has responded to your username change request, but requires clarification before moving forward. Please follow up at your username change request entry as soon as possible. Thank you. NTox · talk 04:53, 1 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
