User talk:Calcbench

November 2017

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. Orange Mike | Talk 18:57, 17 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Calcbench/sandbox

A tag has been placed on your user page, User:Calcbench/sandbox, 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 blatant advertising which only promotes or publicises a company, product, group or service. 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Calcbench, Inc.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Draft:Calcbench, Inc., requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

Request to Unblock Username/Change Username:

This user's request to be unblocked to request a change in username has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without a good reason (see the blocking policy). Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Calcbench (block log • active blocks • global blocks • autoblocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Requested username:

cielo1024 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

Request reason:

I understand the reason my original username was blocked as it presented itself as promotional and/or a conflict of interest. I misunderstood the directions. I am operating as an independent contractor. I do not have ties to the business that would pose a conflict. I would like to resubmit the edits for the "Calcbench" page taking into account the reasons my write up appeared promotional. If given the opportunity, I would like to change the language, add a more detailed history, and add more citations that describe this company in a factual,non-promotional manner. I would also like to contribute to the Wikipedia editing community in the future for pages outside of this one.

Decline reason:

The new username is acceptable. However, the other elements of the block still stand. If you are operating as a contractor for Calcbench then you are still in violation of our rules on conflict of interest and paid editing. Given the promotional nature of your edits on that topic, the only way you are likely to be unblocked is if you agree to avoid creating or editing any articles on the subject of Calcbench.
