Simon Gross

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy or request a change of username.

You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page.

You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text

{{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}

at the bottom of your talk page. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names.

 Thank you.

Accept reason:

I have renamed your account and lifted the block. However, please note that due to the obvious conflict of interest, you will not be permitted to write about your production company on Wikipedia - we do not allow people to use Wikipedia for advertising or promotion.

Requested username:

Charlotte Marshall (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

Request reason:

I am a person Simon Gross (talk) 15:13, 21 October 2019 (UTC)

Decline reason:

Procedural decline only. This account is not blocked. You've already been renamed once, so you'll need to justify exceptional need to be renamed again (and wouldn't do so using an unblock template, unless you are blocked). Yamla (talk) 15:28, 21 October 2019 (UTC)

Oh. I see why you wished to be renamed. Your current username is indeed in violation of WP:USERNAME. Unfortunately, no combination of "Charlotte Marshall" is available, as several variants of that are already in use. Please submit your rename request as described in Wikipedia:Username_policy#Changing_your_username immediately, prior to editing further. Once you have done so, you are welcome to continue editing so long as you avoid any conflict of interest edits. That means avoiding any direct edits related to Simon Gross. --Yamla (talk) 15:31, 21 October 2019 (UTC)

@Yamla: It appears this user has created the account Charlotte Marshall 1. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 22:15, 21 October 2019 (UTC)

Thanks. Creating the new user was fine, but they've continued to engage in promotion. I'll go block. --Yamla (talk) 22:20, 21 October 2019 (UTC)
