Hello, and welcome. You need to change your username so it isn't promotional as these aren't allowed on Wikipedia. Your suggested username of TapThat.co.uk is also promotional so not allowed. Please request a change of name before you do anything else here. Also, promotion of your company goes against out conflict of interest policy and I would also suggest that it isn't notable enough for an entry here.

As you've continued to promote your business and have't altered your username change request, I've blocked you for an indefinite period of time. If you feel this was unjust, or wish to carry on more constructively, please place {{unblock|REASON FOR UNBLOCK}} ~~~~ on your talk page. Ryan Postlethwaite 12:13, 11 April 2008 (UTC) reply

I didn't realise that I wasn't allowed to post about a website as there is currntly a post for gumtree. I thought you where menat to post things like this up. Please may you un block me I promise not to use it in this way.

Will you go and change your username? Ryan Postlethwaite 12:47, 11 April 2008 (UTC) reply

I don't know where I go to do this before I did it by trying to create an account with a similar name and then it gave me this link but now I don't know how to do it. I do have an account jodie.oliver so can I just keep this live and you can delete Tapthat. And then un block my IP. I honestly didn't know I was do wrong. So sorry.

Why does gumtree have a page?

So, you have another account? I'll unblock this IP and leave the account blocked, so you'll still be able to use your other account or create a new account. Ryan Postlethwaite 12:59, 11 April 2008 (UTC) reply

Thanks Ryan when will this be done?

So do you write article pages? I thought all content was User generated?

Yes, but we don't allow Wikipedia to be used promotionally, as you were. See WP:NPOV and more particularly, WP:BFAQ which answers pretty much all your questions. -- Yamla ( talk) 13:46, 11 April 2008 (UTC) reply
