There have been two problems identified 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, 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 this 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. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 06:54, 21 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

We are a small not-for-profit organisation representing the HVAC&R industry in Australia. Similar and affiliated organisations such as ASHRAE and CIBSE have wikipedia pages and we are trying to set up our own in the same vain. Please advise us the best steps to take in order to achieve this. As previously mentioned, our article had been reviewed twice and we were working to address the issues highlighted each time. The previous users that provided revision of our draft did not point out the same issues with username. AIRAH is an organisation with the industry's greater good as its diving force - we are not commercially driven. Any assistance would be appreciated. AIRAH Wiki (talk) 00:05, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Firstly, your use of the first person plural indicates that you are not writing as an individual. Accounts should be for individuals only - shared accounts are forbidden. Secondly, the fact you are not for profit organisation counts for nothing - you are still required to comply with our policy on promotion. Thirdly, you should not be trying to set up 'your' page - you have a conflict of interest, so you should not be making article edits to this subject. Lastly, you still need to change your username to something unrelated to AIRAH. PhilKnight (talk) 00:59, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]


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.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

Thanks for your response. As per your instructions I will need to unblock this account and rename my user name to something generic. Are you able to unblock and change the user name to JamesH1920. At this stage, I am unable to even create a new account because you've blocked this IP. AIRAH Wiki (talk) 03:30, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Please follow the instructions in the block message which say you should use{{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}}and:

  • 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.

The username you suggest seems fine, but we really would need those additional reassurances, together with something that convinces us that you understand the reasons for the decline of your previous unblock request and which addresses the concerns that you are not writing as an individual.

Finally, please do not try to create a new account, as you are not allowed to do so while blocked on this one. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 09:58, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Requested username:

Request reason:

I now understand that there were main two issues with this account prior to it being blocked. The former account was deemed as a advertising or promotion tool, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. This was not my intention when it was created, but in hindsight I can see that the username represented the organisation, which is also against policy. I have requested a new user name which will be used by just one person - myself. With the change of username I intend to act as a individual and not on behalf of any organisation. Creation of future pages will be done without conflict of interest. I hope you can see to my username change request and unblock this account. Thanks for your time.

Accept reason:

That sounds good. Renamed and unblocked. Welcome back. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 11:10, 10 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Boing! said Zebedee: It is my understanding that you were last admin to tend to the above request to unblock my account and name the username. Are there any updates on the progress of this? Thanks. AIRAH Wiki (talk) 04:08, 10 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
