  Hello, I'm 2601:188:180:B8E0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. 2601:188:180:B8E0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 15:50, 29 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Hello. Your recent edit appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you. 2601:188:180:B8E0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 15:50, 29 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, Jake Gutteridge. 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. 2601:188:180:B8E0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 15:53, 29 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia. 2601:188:180:B8E0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 21:40, 29 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for persistently making disruptive edits.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Drmies (talk) 01:53, 31 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

So here's the thing: evading your block via logged-out editing was unwise; that you did so is established via WP:CHECKUSER evidence, so there's really no point in denying it. I have blocked your two IPs for a while, and in addition you are going to have to commit to a couple of things if you ever wish to get unblocked. First of all, you will have to declare your COI. Second, you must edit in accordance with our guidelines, particularly in that article you are so clearly involved with. Drmies (talk) 01:56, 31 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

BLOCKAGE

edit
 
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

Wikipedia moderators only deleted parts of the Cedars Park article (which I wrote) leaving it looking lazily written. I deleted those half-empty articles, not logged in, under my IP address, and was consequently given a permanent block. This was a genuine change and not meant to be 'disruptive'! Wikimedia customer support e-mail keep re-directing me to these discussion pages. Kindly remove my blocks as I do not believe they are justified. Jake Gutteridge (talk) 13:40, 31 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

You edited while logged out, while your account was blocked. That is block evasion. You also don't address the points made by Drmies. I'm not sure what you mean by "Wikipedia customer support email" as Wikipedia does not have 'customer support' or customers for that matter. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 18:58, 31 October 2020 (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.

Someone removed my citations, then blocked me for insufficient crediting (disgusting) and that has contributed to my permanent blockage. Edits I made were removing content that I had created, this is not disruption to the article as the half-emptied sections looked terrible and I don't want this page to be scruffy. The e-mail address I contacted is info-en@wikimedia.org. Jake Gutteridge (talk) 01:33, 1 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Please could you remove the section 'Theobalds Square', as I created this and someone has removed the crucial part about the hauntings. Jake Gutteridge (talk) 01:43, 1 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hello, Jake Gutteridge. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Samsung GT-E1205Y".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted.
