Hello, Tapt.ag, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Draft:Tapt.ag, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

Please do not open help me requests; your unblock request is open and visible. Adding help me tags will not speed up the process. Admins are volunteers like any other editor. Please be patient. 331dot (talk) 21:50, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Draft:Tapt.ag, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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. Kpgjhpjm 13:08, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

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 website, 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:

1. Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement; and
2. 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
3. Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked; and
4. 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. Bishonen | tålk 13:10, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This user's request to be unblocked to request a change in username has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request.

Requested username:

Yahsamir (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

Request reason:

I understand that my original username violated Wikipedia’s username policy, and I sincerely apologize for that. I was unaware that using the name of a company I’m associated with would be a violation. I now recognize the importance of neutrality and transparency on Wikipedia.

My intention in creating the article was not promotional. I aimed to document an example of emerging entrepreneurship in Egypt using independent sources and neutral language. I now understand that even good intentions must strictly follow encyclopedic standards.

I respectfully request a username change to "Yahsamir" and commit to disclosing any conflict of interest, avoiding self-promotion, and contributing constructively to Wikipedia’s editorial standards. Thank you for your time, consideration, and contribution to Wikipedia’s noble goal of making data accessible and truthful! Tapt.ag (talk) 14:24, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Wikipedia does not document "emerging" anything; a subject must have already arrived and be noticed in order to draw the necessary significant coverage in independent reliable sources to merit an article. To put it another way, Wikipedia is the last place to write about something, not the first, as Wikipedia follows already existing coverage. It doesn't lead the way. We're going to need to see you edit about things for which you have no conflict of interest first before permitting you to indirectly make COI/WP:PAID contributions. Please tell what edits you might make in a new request. 331dot (talk) 18:14, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You have made three open unblock requests, when you only should have one. They were all placed out of order (newest posts should be placed at the bottom) so I have re-ordered them. Please consolidate these into a single unblock request with the {{unblock-spamun}} template with the username you want, and delete the other requests. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 14:18, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

thank you for the heads up, I have made the changes! Tapt.ag (talk) 14:25, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please place new comments below older ones, so they stay in order. This may be easier to do if you click "edit" and not "reply" to edit this page; the reply function is imperfect and doesn't work well in every situation(it doesn't accommodate unblock requests well, I fixed this).

You addressed the request to me, but someone else will review it. 331dot (talk) 18:44, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

thank you dot, have a great day :) Tapt.ag (talk) 18:47, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Requested username:

Yahsamir (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

Request reason:

Thank you for your feedback, @331dot. I genuinely appreciate the clarity you provided.

When I referred to "emerging," I was speaking about the broader Egyptian startup ecosystem. My intention is to help expand Wikipedia’s coverage of this underrepresented market, starting with TapTag, which I believe meets the notability criteria. TapTag has been covered in **over 15 media outlets**, **5 nationally recognized publications have been explicity cited in the article**. In addition, the company was **featured by a government agency** following my participation in a symposium on student entrepreneurship. These are third-party, verifiable sources, and the article was written with a conscious effort to maintain neutrality and avoid promotional tone. I understand now that Wikipedia articles must be based on clearly established notability *prior* to inclusion, and I respect that fully. I also recognize that COI/PAID topics must go through proper editorial channels with the right disclosures, which I am committed to following. Moving forward, I plan to contribute to unrelated topics in the Egyptian media and business space. For instance, **Shark Tank Egypt currently lacks a page**, despite being a culturally significant adaptation of a global franchise. I intend to work on that and similar topics *independently and without any conflict of interest*.

Thank you again for your work in upholding Wikipedia’s standards. Rest assured that I’m committed to contributing thoughtfully and responsibly as part of this global knowledge community. Tapt.ag (talk) 18:35, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

No, sorry, I'm not going to unblock you to continue writing about your business TapTag, which is your apparent intention (or even about SharkTank Egypt, which is clearly a way to get TapTag mentioned on Wikipedia via the kitchen door). If you wish to edit in areas totally unconnected to your business or even the "broader Egyptian startup ecosystem", tell us what these might be. DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:15, 16 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
