[edit]
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, or web site, 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. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 11:10, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

{{unblock|Hi, I am unable to edit my user page due to the block, so I’m posting my paid contribution disclosure here: == Paid contribution disclosure == I am an employee of the organization behind the Awal International Film Festival (AIFF) at aiiff.jo. I may make edits related to the festival and related topics. I will follow all Wikipedia guidelines and ensure that my contributions are neutral, well-sourced, and non-promotional. I understand why I was blocked and I’ve taken the necessary steps to correct it. I have already changed my username from "AIFF - Awal Film" to "GhadeerFilmEditor" to comply with Wikipedia’s username policy. I now fully understand Wikipedia’s conflict of interest and promotion policies, and I will only contribute through properly sourced, neutral draft articles for review. I kindly ask that my unblock request be reconsidered. Thank you. [[User:GhadeerFilmEditor|GhadeerFilmEditor]] ([[User talk:GhadeerFilmEditor#top|talk]]) 09:39, 29 April 2025 (UTC)}}

Requested username:

Request reason:

Hello, and thanks for reviewing this. I'm new to Wikipedia, and this was my first attempt at creating a page. I now realize that using the username “AIFF - Awal Film” made it look like I was representing a business or organization, which goes against the username policy — I’m really sorry about that.

The page I created was about AIFF (Awal International Film Festival), a cultural event that we organize every year. It brings together participants from different countries, and I felt it was notable enough to be listed on Wikipedia. That said, I completely understand now that Wikipedia isn’t the place for promotion, and I genuinely want to contribute in a way that fits the platform’s guidelines.

To clarify:

- I’m personally involved with AIFF, so I will make sure to follow the paid-contribution disclosure(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Paid-contribution_disclosure) rules moving forward.

- I understand why I was blocked and I’ll be extra careful not to make edits that seem promotional again.

- I’m hoping to contribute in a more neutral, helpful way — especially around cultural and regional topics with reliable sources.

- I’d like to change my username to `GhadeerFilmEditor`.

Thanks again for your time and consideration! AIFF - Awal Film (talk) 12:18, 13 April 2025 (UTC)

Decline reason:

Procedural decline only. This unblock request has been open for more than two weeks but has not proven sufficient for any reviewing administrator to take action, or you have not responded to questions raised during that time. You are welcome to request a new block review if you substantially reword your request. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that
  • the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
  • the block is no longer necessary because you
    1. understand what you have been blocked for,
    2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
    3. will make useful contributions instead.
Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information. Yamla (talk) 14:51, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Do you still intend to contribute about your festival? 331dot (talk) 14:12, 13 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yes sure, but I will publish the article for review first as a draft. AIFF - Awal Film (talk) 10:03, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there! To help us move forward with the unblock process, can you explain specifically what you will do to abide by Wikipedia's payment disclosure policy? Thank you! Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 01:15, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

To be honest don't know how to in specific, as I'm an employee at the company who owns the festival it's aiff.jo . My point on above request cause found it on the list of reasons why I got blocked, so actually I'm an employee not getting direct payment for this job in specific AIFF - Awal Film (talk) 10:04, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Being an employee counts as paid editing, it does not require specific payment for editing or specific instructions to edit. 331dot (talk) 10:46, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Once my issue resolved, I'll be posting the contribution as draft for review to make sure everything is following all policies in the right direction. AIFF - Awal Film (talk) 13:26, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I have renamed your account. PhilKnight (talk) 11:29, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. Now I want to unblock my account so I can resubmit my contribution based on guidelines for review at first. GhadeerFilmEditor (talk) 09:22, 29 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The unblock request is still awaiting evaluation by an administrator. Admins are volunteers and the queue of unblock requests is long. Your request may take several days or even weeks to process; there is no deadline. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 04:39, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
