User talk:MattBinYYCClearoutI decided just to clear some stuff out, had stuff going back to 2006 on here and random WikiProjects that didn't make sense. --WestJet (talk) 19:58, 2 June 2017 (UTC) Seasons' Greetings...to you and yours, from the Great White North! FWiW Bzuk (talk) 04:13, 24 December 2017 (UTC) March 2018I noticed multiple edits that you have made to articles related to the WestJet group of airlines. Please note that not only is your username against our username policy (as you have the same username as the airlines), your edits to articles related to the WestJet group of airlines seem to contravene our paid editing policy and conflict of interest guidelines. Please change your username and adhere to our paid editing policy immediately. In the meanwhile, I have requested that your current username be blocked, as it is blatantly promotional. Please feel free to leave a message on my talk page in case you need any clarification. Thanks, Lourdes 06:05, 4 March 2018 (UTC) Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy or request a change of username.
You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text
This user's request to be unblocked to request a change in username has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.
MattBinYYC (block log • active blocks • global blocks • autoblocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log)) Requested username: MattBinYYC (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)
Request reason: Made this account eons ago, but new policy was put in place, can't be a brand name. Also, the claim about promotional editing/and representing a group is incorrect. I do NOT work for or represent WestJet or have been paid by WestJet to do anything to their pages. The edit I made on WestJet Encore was a grammar and style edit.

Accept reason: Globally renamed 'WestJet' to 'MattBinYYC' and unblocked. Just Chilling (talk) 01:40, 5 March 2018 (UTC)
Very unfortunate{{subst:REVISIONUSER}} has given you a cookie! Cookies promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. You can spread the WikiLove by giving someone else a cookie, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. {{subst:if||| {{{message}}} ||subst=subst:}} To spread the goodness of cookies, you can add {{subst:Cookie}} to someone's talk page with a friendly message, or eat this cookie on the giver's talk page with {{subst:munch}}! It is unfortunate that you were blocked. I expressed this before you were blocked by asking an administrator if Wikipedia should look the other way or even change the policy. I can imagine that logging on and find that you have been banned (blocked in Wikipedia lingo) is upsetting. It is even upsetting to me. The people who formulated the policy may believe that if a username is the same as a company, that means that you are a company employee. That is not true. Furthermore, if one was writing (editing in Wikipedia lingo) nefariously, all they need to do is make up a username not the same as a company. For example, if Petro Canada had a paid employee to write in Wikipedia, instead of choosing User:Petro Canada, they would just have to choose User:SaskatoonSally instead. It may be better for companies to be able to edit openly and have an obvious user name. If you want to join me to try to change the policy so that you can regain your WestJet user name, let me know and we can, as a group force, try. Vanguard10 (talk) 03:31, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
