Use only one account
[edit]Looking through your posts at the Teahouse and other contributions it seems fairly clear that this account and Bluejay1984 are operated by the same person (or at the very least in a coordinated fashion). Per this policy you should not do it; you should disclose the relationship between accounts on their user pages and use only one of them going forward.

Hello Horror99fan. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.
Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are extremely strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.
Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Horror99fan. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Horror99fan|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}
. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. 331dot (talk) 09:11, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
Response
[edit]Hi there. Yes, you are mistaken. I am not paid by anyone or being directly or indirectly compensated for my editing. I am not a professional editor. This was my favorite movie this year and I wanted to write a Wikipedia article about it. I followed the rules for this so I'm not sure why I'm being penalized. Is there a moderator that I can speak with?Horror99fan (talk) 14:23, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
- I am an administrator ("moderator"). If you are not paid to edit about this film, fair enough, and I apologize. There were several indications that you might be a paid editor, the main one being a desire for a quick review of your draft. There is also another account (User:Bluejay1984) that was created close to yours that edited about Mr. Ramsey himself. It's better for paid editors to be honest about it if they are paid. 331dot (talk) 15:03, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

Request reason:
Hi 331dot, I wrote a response an hour ago that was posted, but it seems to have disappeared; I'm not sure why. I did create the Bluejay account to write about the filmmaker who made the film I wrote about. I was not aware until I read all the comments and then the rules that this was such a major violation of the Wikipedia rules. I understand now and I am very sorry, and will never do it again. I was very excited to write about this film and I thought it would be better to have a different account when writing about the filmmaker, but I understand that was stupid. Again, it will not happen again & I will delete the Bluejay account immediately. I am a big fan of films and loved this movie, so spent a lot of time as I made it learning from the online tutorials what the best way is to write a good Wikipedia entry. I was really proud of my work so then did one about the filmmaker too, and was hoping to do one about another filmmaker who just released her second film on Netflix. This was one of the reasons I put so much work into the writeup so as to make it as good as it could be, but unfortunately I did not understand the policy with multiple accounts so apologize to you and everyone else on Wikipedia for the trouble I caused. I hope that I can get the chance to learn from this experience and get the opportunity to continue participating in this wonderful community. Films have always been one of my favorite things & I think I could add a lot. I have not been paid or will be paid by anyone for this, but, like I said, I was really proud of my page and hope people enjoy it & forgive me for when I used a second account. I have been familiar with this filmmaker since I saw his other film at the Los Angeles Film Festival a few years ago. He seemed like a good guy so thought this was a good thing to do. It will never happen again, and I hope I can write more film-related content for Wikipedia. Thank you and best wishes Horror99fan (talk) 04:27, 3 September 2020 (UTC)
Decline reason:
Given SQL's checkuser comment, I am declining this. If you would like to disclose any other accounts, you may open another unblock request and point them out. CaptainEek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 03:01, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
Hi Horror99fan, I'm a checkuser, which means that I have access to certain system log data. I believe that there is at least one other account you haven't told us about. If you aren't going to be honest with us, there is no reason to spend time helping you get unblocked. SQLQuery me! 16:51, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
