Speedy deletion nomination of User:AIFF - Awal Film/sandbox

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on User:AIFF - Awal Film/sandbox, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
It appears to consist of writings, information, discussions, and/or activities not closely related to Wikipedia's goals. Please note that Wikipedia is not a free Web hosting service. (See section U5 of the criteria for speedy deletion.)

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

September 2024

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:

Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement; and
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
Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked; and
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. Jauerback^dude?/_dude. 11:10, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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. GhadeerFilmEditor (talk) 09:39, 29 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This user is asking to be unblocked to request a change in username.

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

Requested username:

GhadeerFilmEditor (talk · account availability check · rename user)

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)[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]
