Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to A cappella. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.

 * We determined that your edits were promotional, because you included an external link to the official website of a contemporary a cappella group. You must understand that we do not enjoy seeing new accounts coming just to promote a band or a video or something. I don't know what inspired you to make the link to the official website, but that will not be acceptable here.
 * As far as your discussion of Pentatonix and their instrumentation, it is interesting, to be sure, but you haven't provided a reliable secondary source giving that analysis. We'd need to see an article or a scholarly paper or book about the subject first. To apply your own analysis would be original research, which is also not acceptable here on Wikipedia. Thanks!

 * The threshold for including an article in Wikipedia is notability. If this group you like is notable, they may be able to have an article written. If not, then I would have doubts about including them in the a cappella article. Notability isn't strictly required for a mention like this, but it helps, and it helps keep lists from growing long and unmanageable.
 * A professional voice coach's analysis would be acceptable, as long as it is reliably published. If the coach has a WordPress blog or a YouTube channel, that's not good enough. If the coach has scholarly credentials and is on faculty at a four-year university and has published peer-reviewed articles in a journal, then that's the best you could ask for. Does that help?
