December 2017[edit]

There have been two problems with this account: 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 or other organisation or group or a web site, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing.

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, 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 a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In that reason, you must:

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.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 14:55, 13 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Requested username:

personal-training-in-greece (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

Request reason:

Indeed, we represent HNFC and the correction we did was an accurate description as the current text is misleading people who want to learn about the specific topic. To be more clear the text is declaring that "NASM Certified Personal Trainewrs are eligible to join the EREPS, which is completely irrelevant as EREPS is an independent pocess for the registering of insturctors and it is based on independent national registers (as you can read on the same page) NASM on the other hand is a very well know organisation which has the most popular Personal Training Certification it is way more old than EREPS and people that own the NASM certification can work with or without ereps. Now more over since NASM is mentioned we find that would be a good information to add their exclusive partners and distributors in European Union as there are mentioned in NASM Official site you can check here https://www.nasm.org/international-cpt, these are Premiere Global (UK), Physical Coaching (BE), HNFC (GR and CY) and EFAA (NL). So we kindly request to unblock us and add the info above, this is not a promotion these info are facts. Also we can contribute more to the post and add what are the laws about working in Greece and Cyprus as a personal trainer. Thank you

Decline reason:

No, these comments may well be factual but they are also blatantly promotional. Also, please note that a wikipedia account is to be accessed by one person only, which on reading your unblock request is clearly not the case here. Your selected alternative name is also promotional and is not acceptable.--Anthony Bradbury^"talk" 17:54, 13 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Requested username:

nikolaos-throuvis (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

Request reason:

I am sorry about the user name, I am one person, regarding the blatantly promotion, please explain how the text that it is about EREPS does not promote EREPS, which is again an independt organisation that is not administrate from the Europeam Union? the info regarding NASM and EREPS are misleading people to believe that EREPS is bigger than NASM, so if they want to choose a personal training certification can either choose NASM or any other fitness school that is belonging to EREPS (which is false) also on the same paragraph it says that companies like UNITEDFIT in the Netherlands became recognizes as a qualified fitness organization in Europe... Please check for your self that there is not such company and again these are wrong informations.

Decline reason:

That did not address the reason for the block. The proposed new username is acceptable. However, the other elements of the block still need to be addressed. You will not be unblocked until:

you agree to avoid creating or directly editing articles related to your organisation (requested edits will still be permitted)
you agree to abide by the Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of Use and disclose your paid relationship in accordance with the paid contributor policy
you indicate what areas of Wikipedia you intend to edit in the future

If you have no interest in editing Wikipedia beyond writing about your organisation, then you will not be unblocked. If this is the case, I recommend you consider alternative outlets. -- Dlohcierekim (talk) 21:25, 13 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I've done the rename (from User:Hnfc), and someone else will review your unblock request. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 20:10, 13 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Thank you for all the notices, I was not aware, I have tried to edit the text in order to provide more accurate info about the situation regarding the personal training in the European Union and I did not do this for commercial purposes. I agree that I will avoid to create or edit directly this article from now on and I will suggest and request the edits based on external references. My interest is about fitness professionals, personal training and in general exercise in European Union and in Greece and Cyprus, so I would like to contribute in these topics. Please let me know if you need anything else from me. Thank you

Accept reason:

You have been unblocked. Please avoid editing areas which you have a conflict of interest, but otherwise you are free to be useful. Carry on. Jayron 32 15:58, 3 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
