Legal threats

Your recent edits could give Wikipedia contributors the impression that you may consider legal or other "off-wiki" action against them, or against Wikipedia itself. Please note that making such threats on Wikipedia is strictly prohibited under Wikipedia's policies on legal threats and civility. Users who make such threats may be blocked. If you have a dispute with the content of any page on Wikipedia, please follow the proper channels for dispute resolution. Please be sure to comment on content, not contributors, and where possible make specific suggestions for changes supported by reliable independent sources and focusing especially on verifiable errors of fact. Thank you. --Yamla (talk) 16:20, 17 January 2020 (UTC)

Blocked

As you are blatantly violating WP:COI and WP:PAID and are inserting blatantly promotional content into TransAlta, I have now blocked you from editing that page. WP:GAB explains how to contest this block. --Yamla (talk) 23:06, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

Intent is to remove inaccurate information 142.152.62.134 (talk) 23:36, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

This is not what you've been doing. You've instead been violating WP:COI, WP:PAID, and WP:PROMO. You'll need to specifically address this in your request. We aren't interested in what TransAlta has to say about itself, especially if you repeatedly violate our policies. --Yamla (talk) 23:41, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

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:

The claims made about TransAlta in the introductory section are inaccurate and not at all referenced, so I don't understand how editing those is considered promotional.142.152.62.134 (talk) 00:08, 19 February 2020 (UTC)

Decline reason:

If you really honestly don't think that the content you added to the article was promotional, then you are so totally blind to the nature of your own writing that you will never be able to edit constructively, and so blocking you would not be of benfit to the encylopaedia. If, on the other hand, you understand perfectly well that what you wrote was blatantly promotional, then you are lying, so we can't trust you, and so blocking you would not be of benfit to the encylopaedia. Either way, no. JBW (talk) 14:35, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

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.

You still have not addressed your violations of WP:COI and WP:PAID. And if you think, "TransAlta has proven its worth as a power generator, as a community member and as a solid investment" is not a breathtaking violation of WP:PROMO then you lack sufficient competence to edit here. --Yamla (talk) 11:52, 19 February 2020 (UTC)

{{unblock|reason= Can a different edit be proposed and approved by you? What about this: TransAlta Corporation (formerly Calgary Power) is an electricity power generator and wholesale marketing company headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. It is a privately owned corporation and its shares are traded publicly. It operates over 70 electrical generation facilities in Canada, the United States, and Australia. TransAlta operates wind, hydro, natural gas, and coal power generation facilities. The company has been recognized for its leadership in sustainability by the Dow Jones Sustainability North America Index, the FTSE4Good Index, the Bloomberg Gender Equality Index and the Jantzi Social Index. TransAlta is Canada's largest investor-owned renewable energy provider, and has committed to eliminating all coal-fired generation by 2025. In 2015, TransAlta paid the largest regulatory fine in Alberta history for power price manipulation. </ref>https://calgaryherald.com/news/politics/transalta-agrees-to-pay-56m-for-power-price-manipulation-in-alberta<ref>142.152.62.134 (talk) 16:35, 19 February 2020 (UTC)

If your next edit does not address your violations of WP:COI, WP:PAID, and WP:PROMO, I will extend the block. Stop trying to write promotional content about TransAlta. We aren't interested in what TransAlta wants to say about itself. You have a conflict of interest and have shown yourself incapable of contributing appropriately. Stop, read WP:COI, WP:PAID, and WP:PROMO. Then, clearly express your understanding of these policies and guidelines and convince us you understand why your previous edits were inappropriate. Otherwise, I'm extending your block. --Yamla (talk) 16:40, 19 February 2020 (UTC)
