Request reason:

Hello MER-C, I believe there has been a misunderstanding. I was trying to create a page for my brother's company and I tried to follow all the rules of Wikipedia. I made the article completely non-promotional and I was also trying to put some contribution. Please help me understand where did I go wrong and how can I correct the mistakes. Also, I wanted to get the page reviewed, please help me make the article non-promotional so I can get the page up.Shinealight1 (talk) 09:29, 18 May 2019 (UTC)

Decline reason:

I'm sorry, but I can't unblock you unless you want to edit about subjects other than your brother's company. In addition, your username is that of at least two organizations according to a Google search, so you will need to propose a new username. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 07:23, 19 May 2019 (UTC)

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.

Please review conflict of interest and paid editing(if your brother is compensating you in any way, you must declare as a paid editor). Please also review the notability guidelines for companies. Wikipedia is not for merely telling about a company. Wikipedia is only interested in what independent reliable sources state with significant coverage about companies that meet those notability guidelines. Press releases, routine announcements, staff interviews, and other primary sources are not acceptable for this purpose- which is what the sources in your draft seem to be. Are there any subjects that you have no conflict of interest with that you want to edit about? 331dot (talk) 10:34, 18 May 2019 (UTC)

Hi 331dot (talk), I am not being paid for the creation of article. I was doing it as a favour. I am editing Wikipedia articles now almost regularly and trying to make contributions as you can see in my contribution page and the talk page as well. I have reviewed notability guidelines for companies and I will avoid the press releases, routine announcements, staff interviews and other unacceptable sources. I would request for an unblock so I can rework on that article and try to make it better. Once the draft is ready, I will have it reviewed before publishing.Shinealight1 (talk) 01:04, 19 May 2019 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:SRide

Hello, Shinealight1. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "SRide".

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. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 22:05, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
