User talk:BobTheCowInc

Welcome!

Hello, BobTheCowInc, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Draft:Bob The Cow, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Bob The Cow

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 Draft:Bob The Cow, 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.

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. -Lemonaka‎ 23:27, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because it has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. Also, your username gives the impression that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

If you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization, you may request unblock and a username change. In your reasons, you must:

Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement; 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; and
Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked; and
Provide a new username.

To do this, 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 your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken and in use by another account. You can go here to search and see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If the search returns that no global account with that username exists, that means it is available to be taken.

Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your reason here" with the reasons you believe the block was an error, and publish the page. Acroterion (talk) 23:29, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Appeal

This user's request to be unblocked to request a change in username has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

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

Requested username:

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

Request reason:

I was only trying to see if I could make an article for my small joke company, but I suppose it can't. I didn't expect the consequences to be so harsh. I am sorry. As for my proposed new username being the same as my old one, Bob The Cow is not a company and more of a nickname and also kind of joke company I made up with my friends. I will not try to use Wikipedia in a way it is not intended to be used again.

Accept reason:

Allowing username change to requested username. Please select an option from Wikipedia:Changing username and file a request as soon as possible to avoid re-blocking. Acroterion (talk) 11:55, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

So, what would you like to do instead? Blocks can be removed. You should propose a different username to avoid confusion. Bobthecow is taken already and I wouldn't suggest BobTheCow as it's too close. Acroterion (talk) 23:47, 29 April 2024 (UTC)y[reply]

Can you do BobTheBovine BobTheCowInc (talk) 01:33, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Should be fine. What do you think you'd like to edit? Acroterion (talk) 01:35, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would be interested in providing more information on the pages of local historical places around me. BobTheCowInc (talk) 03:00, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
