[edit]
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 follow all these steps:

  1. Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement; and
  2. 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
  3. Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked; and
  4. Provide a new username.

To do this, insert 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 search to 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 still available.

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. JBW (talk) 16:36, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Requested username:

Request reason:

Was not intended for to advertise. Just was writing article about the company. Please help me understand, I may have missunderstood the rules. Dvrealty (talk) 16:48, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Your choice of new username is no better. Your username needs to represent you as an individual. Please review WP:COI and WP:PAID and tell us what edits you will make now that you know you won't be permitted to, in the short term, edit about your company. 331dot (talk) 16:58, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The name "DVR2024" is no better than your current name - "DVR" is just an abbreviation of "Dvrealty". Accounts are for individuals, not companies, organizations or groups of people. Your account name must reflect individual use, and you must guarantee that you will never share access with anyone else.

In addition, Wikipedia is not a business directory, so a company is not entitled to have a Wikipedia article just because it exists. All topics must be notable by Wikipedia's definition to merit inclusion. In the specific case of a company, it must meet the notability criteria for companies and organizations. For this to happen, the company must have already received significant coverage in multiple reliable and independent sources. We have no interest in what a company wishes to say about itself, as this is an inherent conflict of interest. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 23:04, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
