Welcome! edit

Hello, Postlo, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as User:Postlo, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

New to Wikipedia? Please consider taking a look at our introductory tutorial or reviewing the contributing to Wikipedia page to learn the basics about editing. Below are a few other good pages about article creation.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, ask me on my talk page. You can also type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome! ◇HelenDegenerate◆ 20:30, 23 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Postlo edit

 

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. A tag has been placed on User:Postlo requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section U5 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to consist of writings, information, discussions, and/or activities not closely related to Wikipedia's goals. Please note that Wikipedia is not a free web hosting service. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. ◇HelenDegenerate◆ 20:30, 23 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

December 2022 edit

 
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 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|reason=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. Salvio 20:35, 23 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
 
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:

Ggoyal108 | I am sorry for inadvertently breaking the username policy while selecting the username. I should have done a better job with going over the username policy document first. I understand now that the reason why the account is blocked is because the initially chosen username is the same as a brand name which is against Wikipedia's advertising or promotion policy. I would like to request you to assign me a newly proposed username and to unblock this account. I would like to contribute towards making wiki pages better by adding information about different Indian cities, their culture and other related information. There is no monetary compensation involved in making such a contribution. Wikipedia has made an enormous contribution in making the world a better place and I would like to do my part in ways I can.

Decline reason:

Decline as no reply had been received in months.

When you find the time to pursue an unblock request again, please feel free to open a new request. SQLQuery Me! 17:29, 4 February 2023 (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.

Your deleted edit indicated that this is the account of a "team"; accounts are for individuals only. You must be the only person with access to this account. What is your connection to Postlo? 331dot (talk) 06:40, 24 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Thanks 331dot for looking into this.
Yeah, when the User:Postlo page was marked for deletion, I went over the policy documents and realized that the account should not belong to a team but for individuals only. I work at PostLo. But, I am the only one going to use this account going forward and contribute in my own individual capacity. I will ask others in the team who wish to contribute to Wikipedia to create their own account. Postlo (talk) 17:13, 24 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
They shouldn't do so until this block is removed, or they risk being blocked as a meat puppet of you. Under our rules, you meet the definition of a paid editor- being employed is sufficient(you don't need to be specifically paid for edits or asked to edit), so you will need to make the disclosure. Would you agree to refrain from editing about Postlo for now? 331dot (talk) 17:27, 24 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
