Hello, Taylor VoucherCodes. We
welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things
you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a
conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the
conflict of interest guideline and
FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:
In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).
Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. shoy ( reactions) 18:53, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on VoucherCodes, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

A tag has been placed on VoucherCodes requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, a group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content, or an organized event that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

Request reason:
I have made several contributions to other pages, and the VoucherCodes page that I have added to the project several times has been heavily edited to not promote or advertise the company. It simply gave information about the company and a small bit of its history. This does not deviate from any other company page on the whole of wikipedia, in fact it contained far less information on there than most others. I included a Conflict of Interest disclaimer as I was asked to, and did not include any internal links to pages that weren't relevant to the VoucherCodes page itself. Concerning the edits I have made to other pages, the only one that I believe could be considered promotional in nature is the change on the RetailMeNot page, which was simply an internal link to the VoucherCodes page. Given that RetailMeNot is the parent company of VoucherCodes, this seemed like a natural link to include. None of my contributions to Wikipedia were damaging or disruptive because they would not affect anyone's user experience if they were not intentionally looking for VoucherCodes, and the edits I made to other pages were either to correct information, add researched points or to correct grammar. I understand that my persistence with the VoucherCodes page made it seem as though I was solely looking to promote and advertise, and if I need to make more constant edits to other pages then I will.

Decline reason:
You seem to misunderstand the purpose of Wikipedia. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not a place to merely tell about a company. As an encyclopedia, Wikipedia is only interested in what independent reliable sources with significant coverage state about article subjects that meet Wikipedia's special definition of notability(in the case of a company, that is written at WP:ORG). Wikipedia has no interest in what a company wants to say about itself or what it considers to be its own history. You won't be unblocked to continue to edit about your company. If you want to edit about other subjects, subjects for which you have no conflict of interest, please tell what those might be along with your agreement to not edit about your company. If all you want to do here is edit about your company, you will not be unblocked, and should consider social media, your company website, or other alternative forums where what you want to do is permitted. I am declining your request. 331dot ( talk) 10:05, 23 July 2019 (UTC)
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.

Request reason:
I understand the reason for my block was that I continually tried to edit a page about a company that I work for without significant contribution to other pages. Going forward I will make sure to make meaningful contributions to other pages across the project. I believe that I should be unblocked because the company page that I was trying to publish was not damaging or disturbing to Wikipedia, and with the right editing can pass the criteria for notability (the changes to the references are the only ones I'll make in order to comply with the Conflict of Interest rules). I'm happy to address any questions or other concerns on my talk page. TaylorJ1294 ( talk) 13:43, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
Decline reason:
You seem to be saying you plan to keep on writing about your company. No, you won't be unblocked to do that. Yamla ( talk) 13:53, 20 August 2019 (UTC)

Hi Yamla I'm saying that yes, I will try to publish that page again, however I will continue to make contributions to other pages across Wikipedia. The company page that I'm aiming to publish contains no advertorial or promotional messaging and I have a list of references that should allow it to pass the notability criteria. It will not be damaging or disruptive to the project, and I will leave it relatively bare when published to allow other users to edit it as they see fit (if that will help).
