Welcome!

Hello, Seamark PLC, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Your username

Welcome to Wikipedia. I saw that you edited or created Seamark Group, and I noticed that your username, "Seamark PLC", may not comply with our username policy. Please note that you may not use a username that represents the name of a company, group, organization, product, or website. Examples of usernames that are not allowed include "XYZ Company", "MyWidgetsUSA.com", and "Trammel Museum of Art". However, you are invited to use a username that contains such a name if it identifies you personally, such as "Mark at WidgetsUSA", "Jack Smith at the XY Foundation", and "WidgetFan87".

Please also note that Wikipedia does not allow accounts to be shared by multiple people, and that you may not advocate for or promote any company, group, organization, product, or website, regardless of your username. Moreover, I recommend that you read our conflict of interest guideline. If you are a single individual and are willing to contribute to Wikipedia in an unbiased manner, please create a new account or request a username change that complies with our username policy. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you. Joseph2302 (talk) 10:18, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Seamark Group, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Joseph2302 (talk) 11:02, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Seamark Group, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Please stop removing sourced content, and adding unsourced content. Also please also read WP:COI. Joseph2302 (talk) 11:09, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Conflict of interest

Hi there. I notice you've recently been trying to improve our article on Seamark Group. I have had to revert some of your edits because the content and style was excessively promotional. Please try to remain neutral when editing Wikipedia - a long list of achievements or recognitions for a company without strong sources (that is, multiple reliable sources which both confirm the claim and demonstrate that the award or recognition is important enough to include in a Wikipedia article) counts as promotional editing. Considering the conflict of interest you seem to have with this company, I suggest you avoid editing articles related to Seamark Group. I see you have requested a change of username, which is good; however, if you continue to edit promotionally, I will have to block you from editing. Let me know if you have any questions.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at Seamark Group, you may be blocked from editing. Adding hundreds of images of products is promotional. If you notice, no other company's article has pictures of all their products. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:18, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended for publicity and/or promotional purposes. If you intend to edit constructively in other topic areas, you may be granted the right to continue under a change of username. 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, website 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 such groups are generally discouraged from using 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, although if you can demonstrate a pattern of future editing in strict accordance with our neutral point of view policy, you may be granted this right. See Wikipedia's FAQ for Organizations 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, organization, or clients. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit Wikipedia again.

What can I do now?

If you have no interest in writing about some other topic than your organization, group, company, or product, you may consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.

If you do intend to make useful contributions here about 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}} on your user talk page.
• 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, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. ItsZippy ^{(talk • contributions)} 14:39, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
