User talk:Theiop

Welcome!

Hello, Theiop, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as User:Theiop, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content protocols, and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

New to Wikipedia? Please consider taking a look at the our introductory tutorial or reviewing the contributing to Wikipedia page to learn the basics about editing. Below are a few other good pages about article creation.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions ask me on my talk page or you can just type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome!

Speedy deletion of User:Theiop

Your user page, User:Theiop, has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appeared to be advertising which only promoted or publicized someone or something. Promotional editing of any kind is not permitted, whether it be promotion of a person, company, product, group, service, belief, or anything else. This is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages — user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources or advertising space. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, or you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

June 2020

There have been two problems 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 or a web site, 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. Additionally, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for your contributions to Wikipedia, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

If you intend to make useful contributions other than promoting 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 that 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. To do so, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page, replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason for thinking that the block was an error, and publish the page.

Requested username:

neilcnewman (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

Request reason:

I am very sorry for misunderstanding the Wiki terms and conditions. I would kindly confirm that this account will now be only used by one person and that that account holder namely Neil Newman who is currently working in a voluntary capacity (not receiving any payment from the IoP). I intend on including articles and link for the benefit of the public and not aimed at the promotion of the organisation. This message is to confirm that I will abide by the Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of Use and have understood the 5 pillars of use. Once again I will remove links from the page that promote the organisation. My apologies once again for this misunderstanding.

Decline reason:

That would be acceptable as a new username. However, you don't describe what you will edit about as you won't be unblocked to edit about your company at least in the short term. Please review WP:COI and WP:PAID. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 01:25, 25 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Also, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. Subjects of encyclopedia articles must meet notability requirements, such as WP:CORP. "All content must be cited from reliable sources that are unconnected with the subject and have a reputation for fact checking." --Deep fried okra (schalte ein) 18:47, 24 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Requested username:

neilcnewman (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

Request reason:

Many thanks for your additional comments. I have read through very thoroughly the guidance and purpose of WIKIPEDIA and acknowledge that any articles must be cited from reliable and credible sources. I would like to suggest that the content is deleted and re-written adhering to the the guidance. One again my apologies for misunderstanding

Decline reason:

Given the content of that page, I don't think it's a good idea to unblock you to write about the IoP. How else will you contribute to the encyclopedia if unblocked? MER-C 19:24, 25 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

thank you for your prompt response. I think going forward the focus has to be on the paralegal profession as a whole and not IoP and then resources and useful information around that topic

Decline reason:

You do not seem to understand our policies on conflict of interest and paid editing, we cannot unblock you until you show comprehension. CaptainEek ^{Edits Ho Cap'n!}⚓ 19:02, 20 July 2020 (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. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Problem with your custom signature

You have a custom signature set in your account preferences. A change to Wikipedia's software has made your current custom signature incompatible with the software.

The problem: Your preferences are set to interpret your custom signature as wikitext. However, your current custom signature does not contain any wikitext.

The solutions: You can reset your signature to the default, or you can fix your signature.

Solution 1: Reset your signature to the default:

Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
Remove anything in the Signature: text box. (It might already be empty.)
Click the blue "Save" button at the bottom of the page. (The red "Restore all default settings" button will reset all of your preference settings, not just the signature.)

Solution 2: Fix your custom signature:

Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
Click the blue "Save" button at the bottom of the page.

More information about custom signatures is available at Wikipedia:Signatures#Customizing how everyone sees your signature. If you have followed these instructions and still want help, please leave a message at Wikipedia talk:Signatures. Thank you. 18:03, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
