Hi I would just like some clarification on why my account is blocked? I thought it was because of my username but even after changing it I still am blocked. I thought I would be able to create a new account because the original block said something about being free to make an account for myself but when I tried to make a new account it said my account was blocked. Please help me understand what I did to be blocked. Thanks @DragonflySixtyseven: ScottH2016 (talk) 16:42, 15 January 2016 (UTC)
- Well, you don't get unblocked automatically. A human needs to become aware of your situation, and then deal with it. I've unblocked you now. DS (talk) 17:13, 15 January 2016 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Element Lifestyle Retirement Inc.
edit
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Element Lifestyle Retirement Inc. requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. —Largo Plazo (talk) 17:21, 10 February 2016 (UTC)

This is your only warning; if you use Wikipedia for soapboxing, promotion or advertising again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. DGG ( talk ) 18:48, 10 February 2016 (UTC)
I remind you also about our WP:Conflict of Interest policy, and the <https://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Terms_of_Use> (and <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Terms_of_use/FAQ_on_paid_contributions_without_disclosure>) DGG ( talk ) 18:50, 10 February 2016 (UTC)
@DGG: I was not aware of this policy. I don't want to be blocked I would like to follow Wikipedias rules. I have not meant to not write the way Wikipedia wants to. I will do more research and practice more so that I can create better content in the future. Thank-you for the warning. If I am editing or creating something that is paid I will be sure to disclose it.
Speedy deletion nomination of Element Lifestyle Retirement Inc.
edit If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Element Lifestyle Retirement Inc., requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
- It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
- It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. —Largo Plazo (talk) 20:19, 10 February 2016 (UTC)

Request reason:
I was not aware of Wikipedia's Paid-contribution disclosure. I fully disclose that I am being paid to create a Wikipedia page for Element Retirement Lifestyles Inc. If I am unblocked and given the chance to make the page again I will disclose accompanying the page that I am being paid to contribute to the page as well as completely rewrite the content to be encyclopedic and non-promotional. I am not trying to be promotional. I will completely change my writing style to be more encyclopedic from now on. ScottH2016 (talk) 16:04, 11 February 2016 (UTC)
Decline reason:
You were given a final warning by DGG at 10:50, and at 11:30, you recreated it again. You're not going to be unblocked if you're only here to create an article about a non-notable company. OhNoitsJamie Talk 23:03, 11 February 2016 (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.
