Hello, I'm Gsquaredxc. I wanted to let you know that one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Pasco News—has been undone because it appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thank you.

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Pasco News. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you use Wikipedia for promotion or advertising, as you did at Pasco News. Gsquaredxc (talk) 21:20, 17 January 2022 (UTC)

@PascoNews: Hi there! Since you have a conflict of interest, you should not be directly editing the Pasco News article. You may make suggestions on the article's talk page Talk:Pasco News with the {{edit request}} template to ask other editors to improve the article. Or, you may use the Wikipedia:Edit Request Wizard. Hope this helps, and thanks for trying to improve Wikipedia! GoingBatty (talk) 22:08, 17 January 2022 (UTC)

Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because of the following problems: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

You may request a change of username and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization. To do this, first search Special:CentralAuth for available usernames that comply with the username policy. Once you have found an acceptable username, post the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked. In your reasons, you must:

• Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
• Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
• Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your reason here" with the reasons you believe the block was an error, and publish the page. Beeblebrox (talk) 22:25, 17 January 2022 (UTC)

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).

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.

• Being the owner of Pasco News is exactly the problem. I would hope and expect that someone involved in journalism would be able to understand why article subjects should not be the ones writing about themselves. Beeblebrox (talk) 23:58, 17 January 2022 (UTC)

iNSTEAD OF BEING A JACKASS AND NOT HELPING SOMEONE THAT NEEDS HELP WHY DONT YOU OR SOMEONE OFFER SOME HELP....I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THIS SITE AND WAS JUST TRING TO UPDATE...YOU PEOPLE TREAT ME LIKE SOME TERRORIST....THANKS FOR NOTHING

Several people have tried to explain how things work to you, and your response has been to become increasingly unreasonable, now resorting to name-calling and YELLING IN ALL CAPS. Beeblebrox (talk) 20:03, 18 January 2022 (UTC)

Pasco, can you explain to me what the error is in Wikipedia and I'll try to fix it for you, according to our rules, if it is possible? It seems like you may have a branding issue, where the name of your website is confusingly similar to a defunct newspaper. I'm not sure there's anything we can do about that. Jehochman ^Talk 16:38, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for responding and offering to help, yes this is a branding issue. The defunct newspaper was called The Pasco News, mine is called Pasco News but when you search Wikipedia it comes up Pasco News. Is there anyway to change the bold title to The Pasco News so i can make a page under Pasco News? I tried reaching out to the old owner but its been so long that he is no longer around. I'm trying to fix my knowledge card on Google and it uses wiki as a source causing me SEO problems....Thank you again. Any guidance you can give me would be great.
