Request reason:
Please I am brand new at Wikipedia and I opened up an account a couple of days ago and I thought the "user name" would be the title of my page. I did not intend to break any rules. The article was not a marketing attempt for Polycom at all....it was only to inform readers of telepresnece and video conferencing industry. Please re-consider your decision to block me. Like I said, I am brand new to this and if I need to modify my writing, I will do so. Thank you.
Decline reason:
Under our conflict of interest guidelines, we all agree not to write about our own companies. Since it appears that, right now, you aren't interested in writing an encyclopedia as a personal hobby, but only in writing about your business, there isn't a reason for you to have an active Wikipedia account. However, please feel free to request a name change for a personal account if you ever get inspired by encyclopedia-writing as a personal hobby and feel like making the encyclopedia better in your areas of personal interest.

Speedy deletion of User:Polycom Telepresence
edit
A tag has been placed on User:Polycom Telepresence, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

This kind of activity is considered spamming and forbidden by policies, and also violates our username policy.
However, if you feel that there has been a mistake in your blocking, please appeal this block by adding the text{{unblock|Your reason here}} on your user talk page or email the administrator who blocked you. Your reason should include your response to this issue and a new username you wish to adopt that does not violate our username policy (specifically, understand that accounts are for individuals, not companies or groups, and that your username should reflect this). Please check that your new username has not already been taken by checking this list. –Juliancolton Talk · Review 03:22, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
