February 2018[edit]

Hello, I'm FlightTime. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to the main body of Steve Martin. Generally, any relevant external links should be listed in an "External links" section at the end of the article and meet the external links guidelines. Links within the body of an article should be internal Wikilinks. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. - FlightTime (open channel) 18:16, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The same goes for your edits on James Patterson and many other pages... Richard 07:35, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Wolfgang Puck. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you use Wikipedia for soapboxing, promotion or advertising, as you did at Ron Howard. BegbertBiggs (talk) - de 01:34, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at Serena Williams, you may be blocked from editing. Fyunck(click) (talk) 01:59, 2 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Anonymous users from this IP address have been blocked from editing for a period of 3 months for adding spam links. Persistent spammers will have their websites blacklisted from Wikipedia and potentially penalized by search engines.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. -- ferret (talk) 02:10, 2 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If this is a shared IP address and you are an uninvolved editor with a registered account, you may continue to edit by logging in.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

199.241.202.179 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

The addition of a link to the individuals work (in this case an online class) is not soap boxing, it's a reference to an original work authored by the individual. 199.241.202.179 (talk) 18:50, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

You are blocked because we believe you've been adding links to a company you work for. You either need to dispute this claim or show where you performed the mandatory disclosure of your conflict of interest. If you did disclose, there's also the concern of whether or not these links are appropriate under WP:SPAM; I take no position on that at this time. Yamla (talk) 18:59, 14 March 2018 (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.

Oh. I see this IP address is indeed registered to Masterclass. As such, you need to show you have previously disclosed your conflict of interest, in order for the block to be invalid. --Yamla (talk) 19:01, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I might be willing to consider unblock with a topic ban on Masterclass, including the addition of links thereto. What other edits would interest you? --Dlohcierekim (talk) 19:17, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address.
