{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 07:53, 13 October 2023 (UTC)- Hi Jimfbleak,
- I hope this message finds you well. I'm reaching out to discuss the recent block on my Wikipedia account.
- As an employee of King Living, I was surprised to find that our established and internationally recognized company, operational since 1977, didn't have a presence on Wikipedia. With a history spanning nearly five decades and a growing international footprint, including upcoming expansions into the USA, I felt it was a significant oversight. Our company's details can be viewed here for reference: [King Living Showrooms](https://www.kingliving.com.au/showrooms).
- I acknowledge that my association with King Living might have led to a conflict of interest in my attempt to create a Wikipedia page. However, my intention was purely informational, aiming to provide factual details such as the company's history, founder information, and global presence, much like the page of our competitor, Nick Scali Furniture, which can be found here: [Nick Scali Furniture on Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Scali_Furniture).
- I seek your guidance on two fronts:
- 1. **Unblocking My Account**: I understand the concerns regarding conflict of interest and am keen to rectify this. Could you advise on the process to lift the block on my account, ensuring my future contributions adhere strictly to Wikipedia's guidelines?
- 2. **Creating a Neutral Company Page**: What would be the appropriate channel or process to propose a Wikipedia page for King Living that ensures neutrality and adheres to Wikipedia's standards? I am committed to ensuring that any such content is purely factual, devoid of marketing or subjective material.
- I appreciate your time and look forward to your guidance on these matters. Thank you for your attention to this request.

Request reason:
Your reason here I have added a page that is missing for the business I work on, there is no promotion, nor false content, the business is a australia business that it's been operating for 47 years
Decline reason:
I cannot see where you declared your conflict of interest, as required by WP:COI. Your contribution was blatantly promotional in clear violation of WP:PROMO. If you can't see that, you are far too close to the subject area to be objective. Yamla (talk) 13:30, 14 October 2023 (UTC)
