Request reason:

Caught by an open proxy block but this host or IP is not an open proxy. We are based in the offices on Exchange Quay and working for AJ Bell. As with many large companies we use a proxy for all our staff to access the internet. The Proxy service we use is called Zscaler. This I assume is being interpreted as a “Open Proxy”. We need to update the information on our company to better represent the image of ourselves and we will be doing this in the future. Please can you assist in allowing us to do so from this IP range 165.225.80.0/22. AJBICwiki (talk) 15:35, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

You'll need to disable your use of zscaler if you wish to edit here. Additionally, WP:COI applies; generally speaking, you shouldn't edit articles about your company. Yamla (talk) 15:40, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, AJBICwiki. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Also, please note that accounts which represent businesses, rather than individual personal accounts, are not permitted by Wikipedia policy. Therefore you should not continue to edit using this account. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 15:02, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

October 2018

Hello, I'm Zackmann08. Thank you for your recent contributions to Andy Bell (entrepreneur). I noticed that when you added the image to the infobox, you added it as a thumbnail. In the future, please do not use thumbnails when adding images to an infobox (see WP:INFOBOXIMAGE). What does this mean? Well in the infobox, when you specify the image you wish to use, instead of doing it like this:

|image=[[File:SomeImage.jpg|thumb|Some image caption]]

Instead just supply the name of the image. So in this case you can simply do:

|image=SomeImage.jpg.

There will then be a separate parameter for the image caption such as |caption=Some image caption. Please note that this is a generic form message I am leaving on your page because you recently added a thumbnail to an infobox. The specific parameters for the image and caption may be different for the infobox you are using! Please consult the Template page for the infobox being used to see better documentation. Thanks!

Speedy deletion nomination of Andy Bell (entrepreneur)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Andy Bell (entrepreneur), requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

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

Request reason:

We are based in the offices on Exchange Quay and working for AJ Bell. As with many large companies we use a proxy for all our staff to access the internet. With AJ Bell being a plc, it's important that we are able to update our information on our page to best represent the company to all users and potential investors.

Decline reason:

You have already been told that you will need to disable your proxy in order to permit editing. In addition, Wikipedia has no interest in helping your investors, aiding potential customers, or in what you want to say about your company. Those are all things you should use your own website for. Please read WP:COI. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 10:54, 16 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

AJ Bell

Please do not add or change content, as you did at AJ Bell, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Dormskirk (talk) 18:57, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at AJ Bell, you may be blocked from editing. Dormskirk (talk) 09:18, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Andy Bell 2016.jpeg

Thanks for uploading File:Andy Bell 2016.jpeg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{permission pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Minorax^«¦talk¦» 01:34, 30 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
