Request reason:

Would like to request you to kindly unblock, The reason was me being completely unaware of how editing and adding references on wikipedia work, though i have read much by now about the syntaxes that wiki uses. The page was "media of India" section digital only publishers which ours is, the intent was not to add any spam site links. If there is any verification process for ownership of the domain so as to let wiki know the pointing url was no spam. Thanks Alexf IndianSpectator (talk) 15:28, 12 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

No; you have a clear conflict of interest regarding this link and haven't addressed that at all. We won't unblock you if your goal is to link to or edit articles about your organisation. If instead you wish to edit other subject areas, areas for which you have no conflict of interest, tell us what those are and convince us you understand and will abide by WP:COI.

Request reason:

Thankyou Yamla for your response. There's a warning message saying that if my request turned down again then i may be blocked even to appeal. So Let me put it in this way, all at once, I had read before editing on wikipedia because there is no crawler sort of situation so that i could wait getting listed into a category to which my organisations name belongs to. Since in best of my knowledge wiki is public edited encyclopaedia so somebody has to add. Please understand that the nature of all the articles are not similar and i didn't tried adding the link to an unrelated page, about a year ago i edited a page on wiki called "News sources/India", which of course you can check. My edit was well accepted there which i presume because it was in context to the title. In our media fraternity we use wiki to add references, update any new event that has just happened and latest developments of fields to which we are writing about, so the intent is always enriching the wiki database and certainly not trying to spam on it. I think in my take i have to differ that this was not a COI case, this would be one, if i only add reference to Indian Spectator. I assure you that if the request entertained positively then we'll be adding references to many other site, adding latest updates as soon as they happen and try best to stick to the COI policy and editing policy of Wikipedia.

Decline reason:

Regardless of your motives, as long as we have any reason to believe that you intend to continue adding links to your own website, you will not be unblocked. You will also need to select a new username, as your current username does not meet Wikipedia's username policy. Yunshui  22:51, 12 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
