Your submission at Articles for creation: MaGICLandscapes (August 16)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted because it included copyrighted content, which is not permitted on Wikipedia.

This submission appears to be taken from https://interreg-central.eu/Content.Node/MaGICLandscapes.html. Wikipedia cannot accept material copied from elsewhere, unless it explicitly and verifiably has been released to the world under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license or into the public domain and is written in an acceptable tone—this includes material that you own the copyright to. You should attribute the content of a draft to outside sources, using citations, but copying and pasting or closely paraphrasing sources is not acceptable. The entire draft should be written using your own words and structure. Note to reviewers: do not leave copyright violations sitting in the page history. Please follow the instructions here.

You are welcome to write an article on the subject, but please do not use copyrighted work.

User:MaGICLandscapes/sandbox/MaGICLandscapes may be deleted at any time unless the copied text is removed. Copyrighted work cannot be allowed to remain on Wikipedia.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.

See you there! TheDragonFire (talk) 11:01, 16 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

August 2017[edit]

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, 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. Anarchyte (work | talk) 13:15, 16 August 2017 (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:

Hello. I see that the article I wrote has been blocked, due to it being considered as advertising. It was never my intention to advertise the project, merely to provide information on what it is about. I would like to still be able to contribute towards Wikipedia, specifically in my field of green infrastructure, your information on which doesn't have a European EU section. In addition to this, I read that the IP would be blocked. I am not sure if my IP here at the university is a shared one and I wouldn't like to think that my article has jeopardised other members' ability to contribute towards Wikipedia. Pleas let me know what further actions I need to take to resolve the situation. Many thanks Christopher Marrs

Decline reason:

You forgot to propose new username. Please, read the blocking message (red box above) carefully. Vanjagenije (talk) 14:10, 17 August 2017 (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.

Accept reason:

Following the renaming and the summary given above, I feel like it's only fair to give you another shot. Before you continue to edit, please make sure to read over WP:SPAM and WP:COI. Thank you and happy editing. Anarchyte (work | talk) 01:09, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The global rename tool is down. I shall rename you when it is functioning again. Just Chilling (talk) 21:04, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Renamed from 'MaGICLandscapes' to 'Christopher Marrs'. Another admin will review your unblock request. Just Chilling (talk) 20:58, 19 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
