User talk:Dycoast

September 2022

Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because of the following problems: 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, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

You may request a change of username and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization. To do this, first search Special:CentralAuth for available usernames that comply with the username policy. Once you have found an acceptable username, 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. In your reasons, you must:

Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
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.

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. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 13:44, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Requested username:

coastinfo22 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

Request reason:

Ensuring the correct information and external links are provided as there are lots of private tourism companies around the area Dycoast (talk) 13:56, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Wikipedia is not a tourism guide and furthermore has no interest in aiding efforts to promote your company. Please read WP:COI and WP:PAID. You won't be unblocked to continue to add links to your website; if that is your only goal here, this is the end of the road. If you are interested in being a general contibutor and editing about topics unrelated to your conflict of interest, please tell what. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 14:27, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

We cover a huge part of the Yorkshire Coast and if we can support in providing the correct information and required to do so or see any amendments that need to be made we will do. As well as providing correct external links for official pages.

Decline reason:

I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that

the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
the block is no longer necessary because you
1. understand what you have been blocked for,
2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
3. will make useful contributions instead.

Request reason:

I am sorry for the misunderstanding however I would still like to appeal to be unblocked as I am a regular user of wikipedia. I will make useful contributions as opposed to those suggested and will not cause any damage to any current content. I now understand why I have been blocked but feel that it is no longer necessarily upon me reading the rules etc. Thanks. Dycoast (talk) 11:55, 8 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Procedural decline only. This unblock request has been open for more than two weeks but has not proven sufficient for any reviewing administrator to take action. You are welcome to request a new block review if you substantially reword your request. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that

the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
the block is no longer necessary because you
1. understand what you have been blocked for,
2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
3. will make useful contributions instead.

Could you be more specific about the kind of contributions you'd make if unblocked? Daniel Case (talk) 06:23, 9 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
