Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia 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 Wikipedia?

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. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements, and using Wikipedia for promotion. Wikipedia has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but it is considered inappropriate for such groups to use Wikipedia 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 Wikipedia:FAQ/Organization for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see 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, then 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 Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:

  • Add the text {{unblock-spamun|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.
If you believe this block was made in error, please see how to appeal a block.

It appears that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the edits for which you were blocked. Please describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked. --Orange Mike | Talk 20:47, 6 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s):

Allowing username change to DGFraser75 (talk · contribs). Please put this request in at Wikipedia:Changing username as soon as possible to avoid re-blocking. However you must continue to abide by WP:NPOV and WP:SPAM, and understand fully WP:CRYSTAL, WP:NOT and WP:5P. These are policies to be read and abided by, or your new username will be blocked just as quickly. If you abide by these policies like the rest of us have to, you will have a happy time here. Best wishes.

Request handled by: SGGH ping!

Unblocking administrator: Please check for active autoblocks on this user after accepting the unblock request.
