Your account has been blocked from editing Misplaced Pages because it appears to be mainly intended or used for publicity and/or promotional purposes. Please read the following carefully.- Why can't I edit Misplaced Pages?
Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. You have violated one or more of our rules, including rules against adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements, using Misplaced Pages for promotion, and editing inappropriately with a conflict of interest. This kind of activity is considered spamming and is forbidden by Misplaced Pages's policies. Although Misplaced Pages has a great many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, it is considered inappropriate for such groups to use Misplaced Pages to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.
- Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?
Probably not. See Misplaced Pages:FAQ/Organization for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. See Misplaced Pages:Conflict of interest for the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, or organization. If this does not fit in with your goals here, you will not be allowed to edit again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.
- What can I do now?
You are still welcome to write about something other than your company or organization. If you do intend to make useful contributions on some other topic, you must convince a Misplaced Pages administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:
- Add the text
{{unblock-coiun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}}
below this message box. - Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy.
- Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
- Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the edits for which you were blocked.
- Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.
