Speedy deletion nomination of User:WilliamFox&Sons
editA tag has been placed on your user page, User:WilliamFox&Sons, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be advertising which only promotes or publicises someone or something. Promotional editing of any kind is not permitted, whether it be promotion of a person, company, product, group, service, belief, or anything else. This is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages — user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources or advertising space. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.
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 deleted 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.

Why do you assume that you have the right to place advertising material here? ----Anthony Bradbury"talk" 14:59, 20 April 2019 (UTC)
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.
{{unblock|Your reason here}}
at the bottom of your talk page, replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason for thinking that the block was an error, and publish the page. Kuru (talk) 15:39, 20 April 2019 (UTC)

Request reason:
Anthony Bradbury, the way you talk is really rude. I have the right post as anyone else. This article might seem ambiguous to you, but I have the room to improve. How do you differentiate ads and brand introduction tho? Is it only the fame of a brand? Is it the case that wiki only allows the famous brand to post its history? As an experienced editor, please mind your words. -- to Anthony only. Get back to the page I posted. I do want to promote the brand but outside Wikipedia. So I deducted anything that sounds like an ad. The brand truly exists and started 100 years ago, and we do want people to know its origin. Wiki is the best place to help people understand, but maybe because I'm not experienced with Wiki, I don't know the exact way to write it. The reason why I choose the brand name as my user name: First, it's trustworthy to post an article from someone who's from the company. If I suddenly post an article, not about myself, that's suspicious. Second, I didn't know Wiki would pay attention to a user's name that much. I can ask in the teahouse but if anyone could give me further information about how to make edits a not so famous brand history, it would be very much appreciated. Thanks!
Decline reason:
You are mistaken, you have no rights here. If you are interested in writing about areas for which you have no conflict of interest, please follow the instructions above to choose a new username, convince us you understand WP:COI, WP:PAID, and WP:PROMO, and tell us what you'll write about instead.
