User talk:LAPP CC: Difference between revisions

Thanks for your contributions to LAPP (company). Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because you have a stated conflict of interest (COI) as a paid editor.
I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page.
When the article is ready for publication, please click on the “Submit the draft for review!” button at the top of the page OR move the page back. DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:13, 14 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because it has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. Also, your username gives the impression that the account represents a business, organisation, group, website, or role, which is against the username policy.

If you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization, you may request unblock and a username change. In your reasons, you must follow all these steps:

1. Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement; and
2. 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; and
3. Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked; and
4. Provide a new username.

To do this, insert 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.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken and in use by another account. You can search to see if the username you’d like to choose is available. If the search returns that no global account with that username exists, that means it is still available.

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. DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:13, 14 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Just to explain, I was going to come and ask what the ‘CC’ in your username refers to. Would it be something like ‘corporate communications’ by any chance? If so, that violates our username policy, and I was going to ask you to change your name.

However, I then saw on your userpage that “This account is used by employees of de:Lapp Holding”, with “employees” in plural. Wikipedia user accounts are (at least here on the English Wikipedia) strictly for use by a single individual only, so you would also need to take steps to prevent others from using this account, and confirm that this has been done.

I also noticed that you had published directly in the main encyclopaedia the LAPP (company) article on your business. As a paid editor, you are not allowed to do that, and must instead put your creations through the WP:AFC review process.

As a result of all these policy violations, I have blocked you from editing. — DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:31, 14 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, okay, I understand that. However, this is not a shared account, the plural can just be deleted. Sorry about not following all rules correctly despite my best efforts, this article wizard stuff is a bit overwhelming and it has come a long way since I was last editing English Wikipedia some years ago. Honestly, after this experience I do not know if I would advise other people to follow these rules, since I wouldn’t have this problem is I didn’t at least try.

This user is asking that their block be reviewed:

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

---

Request reason:

Notes:

• In some cases, you may not in fact be blocked, or your block has already expired. Please check the list of active blocks. If no block is listed, then you have been autoblocked by the automated anti-vandalism systems. Please remove this request and follow these instructions instead for quick attention by an administrator.
• Please read our guide to appealing blocks to make sure that your unblock request will help your case. You may change your request at any time.

If you ask the blocking administrator to comment on this request, replace this template with the following, replacing “blocking administrator” with the name of the blocking admin:

{{Unblock on hold |1=blocking administrator |2=Not a shared account, not a native speaker and thus a bit confused by all that article wizard stuff. [[User:LAPP CC|LAPP CC]] ([[User talk:LAPP CC#top|talk]]) 13:44, 14 November 2025 (UTC) |3 = ~~~~}}

If you decline the unblock request, replace this template with the following code, substituting {{subst:Decline reason here}} with a specific rationale. Leaving the decline reason unchanged will result in display of a default reason, explaining why the request was declined.

{{unblock reviewed |1=Not a shared account, not a native speaker and thus a bit confused by all that article wizard stuff. [[User:LAPP CC|LAPP CC]] ([[User talk:LAPP CC#top|talk]]) 13:44, 14 November 2025 (UTC) |decline = {{subst:Decline reason here}} ~~~~}}

If you accept the unblock request, replace this template with the following, substituting Accept reason here with your rationale:

{{unblock reviewed |1=Not a shared account, not a native speaker and thus a bit confused by all that article wizard stuff. [[User:LAPP CC|LAPP CC]] ([[User talk:LAPP CC#top|talk]]) 13:44, 14 November 2025 (UTC) |accept = accept reason here ~~~~}}
