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

If you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization, you may request unblock and a username change. In your reasons, you must follow all these steps:

  1. Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement; and
  2. 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; and
  3. Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked; and
  4. Provide a new username.

To do this, insert 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.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken and in use by another account. You can search to see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If the search returns that no global account with that username exists, that means it is still available.

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. Alexf(talk) 11:32, 24 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Requested username:

Request reason:

was only trying to add the website which shows rickys racing stats, the page I liked to has no advertising or forms of income and it's only a memorial page. I understand how adding the link could be seen as wrong now, I was only trying to share a link to Rickys racing stats and memorial page.

Decline reason:

I believe your statement, and if you confirm you have read the guideline on external links as well as confirming you will not re-add such links, we can get your account renamed and unblocked. Please do so in a fresh unblock request. Thanks, HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 17:26, 31 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Please review Wikipedia's guideline on external links, and in particular #12 in the section "Links normally to be avoided".
Inserting a link to your friend's website could be considered a conflict of interest, so please don't do that. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 19:39, 25 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
