User talk:Greeneshadow

There have been two problems identified 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 this 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. So Why 11:36, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

No promotional language or advertising was used in the company page for Oak & Cane. It followed the same context and layout as Bacardi, Grey Goose (Vodka), Dewar's company page to just name a few. No language or imagery was suggestive to create reader intent to purchase. Request that Oak & Cane be reinstated with suggested edits.Fortifygrp (talk) 12:24, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

"super-premium", "well rested with fresh Florida orange peels", "Delicate aromas of light vanilla and faint citrus are revealed over a hint of aromatic wood", etc. If you truly believe this is not promotional then WP:CIR applies. Yamla (talk) 12:31, 20 March 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.

Request reason:

Unaware of the username policy Fortifygrp (talk) 13:32, 20 March 2017 (UTC)

Decline reason:

I've done the rename (from User:Fortifygrp), but you'll need to make an unblock request that addresses the promotional nature of your edits, any conflict of interest you might have with your subjects (see WP:COI), and explains what if any connection there is between your new username and Frederick F. Greene. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 14:24, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

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

Request reason:

"Super PRemium" is non promotional and falls under WP:CIR liquor is classified by the industry under 1 of 5 tiers and "Super Premium" is a tier category. The tasting notes can be modified to plain language an not quote what the company mixologist version which is customary in the liquor industry. Copy can be changed to listing as Tasting Notes: vanilla, citrus, wood etc.

Accept reason:

I'm unblocking you on the condition that you 1) declare any conflict of interest you have, especially if you are paid to edit, per WP:COIDISCLOSEPAY and 2) do not recreate the article in article space but instead create a draft using the articles for creation page that can be reviewed by other editors before going live. Since new unreviewed pages are not indexed by search engines anyway, you wouldn't gain anything by re-creating the article anyway. I am assuming good faith that you are willing to work within the framework of this project. I hope I won't have to regret it. Regards So Why 15:40, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Oak & Cane (American rum company) (March 20)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Dodger67 was:

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to User:Greeneshadow/sandbox/Oak & Cane (American rum company) and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
