Hello Marksmes. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being employed (or being compensated in any way) by a person, group, company or organization to promote their interests. Paid advocacy on Wikipedia must be disclosed even if you have not specifically been asked to edit Wikipedia. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.

Paid advocates are strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Marksmes. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Marksmes|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. 331dot (talk) 08:33, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I assume that you are referring to the spam blacklist. To request removal from it, please see MediaWiki talk:Spam-blacklist#Proposed removals- but I will tell you that is exceedingly unlikely to be granted. 331dot (talk) 08:35, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

i dont understan this Marksmes (talk) 09:00, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You're asking to "unblock my website". The only way Wikipedia does this is to blacklist them; if that's the case, you need to go to the link I provided and follow the instructions. If you are talking about something else, please clarify.
Either way, you need to declare as a paid editor, see WP:PAID or my instructions at the top of this page. 331dot (talk) 10:57, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
To tack onto what 331dot has said... In all likelihood, the reason your website was added to the blacklist is because it was heavily spammed onto this project. A website does not get added to the blacklist because of a few inappropriate additions. It is usually because of a persistent, ongoing effort by one or more people to spam a website onto the project despite multiple warnings. Those warnings went unheeded and the effort to spam your website kept happening. Removing it from the blacklist is no small thing. It's not going to happen just because you ask. Understand; Wikipedia is NOT a means of promoting your website. From my chair, the simple fact that it is "your" website and that you want it removed from the blacklist already shows an intent that you are trying to improve the SEO of your website. The SEO of a website is typically harmed by being added to the blacklist; a fact that appears in the warnings that were given (and ignored). If your reason for being here is to promote your website, you're in the wrong place. Wikipedia is not your advertising platform. --Hammersoft (talk) 13:12, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
