There have been two problems with this account: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group or a web site, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing.

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post 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 a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth 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 that reason, you must:

  • 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.
  • Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.
If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Alexf(talk) 11:33, 29 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Requested username:

Request reason:

I am a tax professional and runs a blog on US Code 26.For the record, I am not running any business on irstaxapp.com.There are many articles on my blog , but if you mark I have given link of calculators related to a UD code 26. These tax calculators are not easy to make and you wont find those easily. So, the idea was to add value to readers of tax page on Wikipedia.

Decline reason:

Procedural decline only. User is unresponsive. You are welcome to make another unblock request after responding to the questions, below. Yamla (talk) 12:50, 15 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
  • Your editing was clearly intended to attract readers to your web site. Whether you expected to make a profit out of doing so is irrelevant, as is whether you believe that your web site provides a useful service to readers: what matters is that editing for the purpose of promoting, publicising, or advertising anything is not permitted, and that includes publicising a blog and an "app". You will therefore not be unblocked if it seems that you are likely to continue to do the same sort of thing. Can you say what kind of editing you think you may do if your account is unblocked? And are you willing to avoid doing any editing that might be seen as promoting yourself, your web site or blog, your app, or anything else connected to yourself?

Request reason:

Sorry for late reply . I was busy elsewhere. Yes I would like to answer two specific questions put by JamesBWatson."What kind of editing you think you may do if your account is unblocked? The answer is : often I find the tax pages on wikipedia is outdated e.g page talks about tax year 2016 when the tax year 2018 is soon arriving. So if I may edit such articles if there is need to keep the tax info correct and uptodate. The second question is also answered in affirmative , that I am willing to avoid any kind of self promotion of my site or app or myself . I hope that helps !

Accept reason:

Based on the advice of the blocking admin, I am unblocking this account. Please avoid anything that smells of promotion, INCLUDING using your own website as a source for your edits. Please instead seek out neutral, unconnected sources for your edits. Thank you. Jayron32 15:48, 28 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
