Requested username:

Galway Film (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

Request reason:

We just wanted to have the red Galway Film Fleadh logo taken down because it was an old logo for Galway Film Fleadh, we're a non-profit organization and a film festival, please advise what to do next. I also wanted to update the wiki to reflect this years festival dates

Decline reason:

That username would also be inappropriate; see WP:USERNAME. You haven't addressed your violation of WP:COI, nor have you told us what you plan to write about instead, if unblocked. Finally, you imply this is a shared account. Shared accounts are not permitted here. Yamla (talk) 14:41, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to keep the username GalwayFilmFleadh and not understanding what violations I did and how it's a conflict of interest, The page I was editing is about the company I work for. This should be fair and correct. I really wanted to simply remove an outdated logo that's on here and was uploaded years ago by a colleague who no longer works here. File:Galway Film Fleadh (Large).jpg is the file in question and needs to be removed and replaced with the image from our wiki page about Galway Film Fleadh with the green logo. Please advise!

This will not happen. --Yamla (talk) 15:24, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I simply want to remove said logo that I linked to above. How do I get this removed as it's the wrong colour? The only changes to our page otherwise are this years dates are the 9th- 14th July 2024. Currently the dates still say 2023. I am not doing anything harmful, you can change our name to just galwayfilm if easier. Please advise GalwayFilmFleadh (talk) 15:26, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You cannot get this to happen. As you are refusing to listen to what you are being told, or alternatively simply cannot understand WP:USERNAME, WP:COI, and WP:PROMO, I will not respond further. --Yamla (talk) 15:29, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yamla, I'm just trying to update information to display accuracy no the subject. I'm not trying to self promote our company, I was trying to take down an image that appears constantly in google searches that is an old image and needs to be removed. It's the company I work for and we need it to be taken down as it's got the wrong colours, it was uploaded by one of our own colleagues who forgot the login to wikipedia. I don't see what crime there is in this GalwayFilmFleadh (talk) 11:21, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
