Request reason:
Hello Diannaa, I am very grateful if you would kindly agree to unblock the entry. The entry was written with the purpose of including a historical account of the growth of a well-run family business into a solid corporate entity within the retail sector from a neutral perspective with fresh eyes. A small level of clarity was required with regards to the use of external linking, which were included not to advertise or promote the business or it’s website, but were included with the sole purpose of providing reference to legitimate sources testifying to the press activity and progress made by the company in the eyes of recognised media. Upon reviewing all entries for Wikipedia specific policies and consulted other experienced Wikipedia editors/ users regarding relevant citations and external linking/ reference activity. I have verified that it will be acceptable remove to all the current external links, listed at the foot of the article and include just the following 3 citations to notable sources: 1. http://www.businessdorset.co.uk/news/news/4226899.New_door_opens/ 2. https://uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/todd-doors-offer-price-cuts-140300073.html and 3. https://www.realhomesmagazine.co.uk/design/todd-doors-celebrates-its-60th-year-in-business/ . I fully understand that the amount of external links included within the article - written in a factually neutral manner will need to be drastically reduced. There was no intent and only an initial understanding of Wikipedia's regularly updated policy guidance requirements. At this stage I can agree to remove all the external links and only keep the ‘See Also’ and link to the company’s website. Please kindly confirm whether these changes will be acceptable and whether there are any other changes you recommend in order to approve the Todd Doors entry. I have requested a change in the username as well, as this will not be the only entry I make on Wikipedia. I understand you require only external links and citations to non-paid for, media sources written by journalism professionals. There will be no repeat behaviour. Thank you. Yours faithfully, Henry Asafo-Agyei
Decline reason:
If "British heritage, history & quality are now synonymous with the timber door industry expertise, distribution and supply that Todd Doors provide as a service" is what you call "from a neutral perspective" you have a competency issue here. Also, of 3 sources you provided in this request, 2 are press releases and 1 is a trivial mention in some obscure local news source. Max Semenik ( talk) 10:58, 2 December 2015 (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.
