User talk:Judaicadh

Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because your account 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. Alexf^(talk) 19:50, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

my old username violated policy Judaicadh (talk) 21:36, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

That's fine as a new username, but your username is only one small aspect of the block, please discuss your inappropriate edits that violated WP:COI and possibly WP:PAID. 331dot (talk) 06:52, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

6 October 2024 unblock request

This user is asking that their block be reviewed:

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

Request reason:

I did that above, 331dot. I said that I was going to put a librarian/curator badge on my page. I didn't mean to promote something just to promote it. I am a curator and wanted to share resources. Apologies. Judaicadh (talk) 02:27, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Notes:

In some cases, you may not in fact be blocked, or your block has already expired. Please check the list of active blocks. If no block is listed, then you have been autoblocked by the automated anti-vandalism systems. Please remove this request and follow these instructions instead for quick attention by an administrator.
Please read our guide to appealing blocks to make sure that your unblock request will help your case. You may change your request at any time.

Administrator use only:

If you ask the blocking administrator to comment on this request, replace this template with the following, replacing "blocking administrator" with the name of the blocking admin:

{{Unblock on hold |1=blocking administrator |2=I did that above, 331dot. I said that I was going to put a librarian/curator badge on my page. I didn't mean to promote something just to promote it. I am a curator and wanted to share resources. Apologies. [[User:Judaicadh|Judaicadh]] ([[User talk:Judaicadh#top|talk]]) 02:27, 6 October 2024 (UTC) |3 = ~~~~}}

If you decline the unblock request, replace this template with the following code, substituting {{subst:Decline reason here}} with a specific rationale. Leaving the decline reason unchanged will result in display of a default reason, explaining why the request was declined.

{{unblock reviewed |1=I did that above, 331dot. I said that I was going to put a librarian/curator badge on my page. I didn't mean to promote something just to promote it. I am a curator and wanted to share resources. Apologies. [[User:Judaicadh|Judaicadh]] ([[User talk:Judaicadh#top|talk]]) 02:27, 6 October 2024 (UTC) |decline = {{subst:Decline reason here}} ~~~~}}

If you accept the unblock request, replace this template with the following, substituting Accept reason here with your rationale:

{{unblock reviewed |1=I did that above, 331dot. I said that I was going to put a librarian/curator badge on my page. I didn't mean to promote something just to promote it. I am a curator and wanted to share resources. Apologies. [[User:Judaicadh|Judaicadh]] ([[User talk:Judaicadh#top|talk]]) 02:27, 6 October 2024 (UTC) |accept = accept reason here ~~~~}}

Someone else will review your request, but I don't see any such statements on this page. I'm not sure what your mean by "library/curator badge". 331dot (talk) 12:37, 6 October 2024 (UTC) (User talk:331dot) see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Conflict_of_interest#Cultural_sector[reply]

Ok, seeing the edit that got you blocked, I actually think that this was a mostly-appropriate link to add (although it should have gone in an External links section, not the body). That having been said, given the match between the URL and your username and that you had not yet made a COI disclosure, I also see why this edit was perceived as promotional and led to the block. As a digital humanities professional, your contributions are definitely welcome on Wikipedia, but before unblocking I do need to see a clear statement summarizing your understanding of WP:PAID and WP:COI and how you intend to comply with them once unblocked. We're not looking for apologies, we're looking for a concise demonstration that you now know what the rules are and how to play by them. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 19:18, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
