Hello, I'm MB. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse. Thanks. MB 15:54, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at The Settlers High School, you may be blocked from editing. Theroadislong (talk) 08:50, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because of the following problems: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

You may request a change of username and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization. To do this, first search Special:CentralAuth for available usernames that comply with the username policy. Once you have found an acceptable username, post 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. In your reasons, you must:

Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
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.
Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

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|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. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 08:51, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

To Be Confirmed (Based on Guidance from Moderator)|

Good day.

Our sincerest apologies. Our intention was not to self-promote, advertise, or edit the page with malicious intent. Please allow me to elaborate as to the circumstances.

Some of our parents, learners, and staff have noticed that The Settlers High School's Wikipedia page is outdated and queried it by us. We asked a previously-employed educator (who also wrote our school's history book) to write something for the page at no compensation. It was then decided to create this account (TSHSCommunications) for him to make the edits on the page.

We acknowledge that Wikipedia clearly does not approve of creating an account which represents a business, organisation, group, or web site. We also acknowledge that we understand this page may not be used for self-promotion or advertising.

As a result, rather than requesting you to unblock us, we would like to ask for some guidance on how to approach our situation. How do we keep our school's Wikipedia page up to date without creating a central account and updating it ourselves? Would you prefer that we ask our parents, learners, past pupils en masse to make changes to update it?

We would like to ensure that we do everything above-board. Please assist us in doing so.

Kind regards,

The Settlers High School
