 * I have removed the copied text from the top of this page; we cannot have copyright material anywhere in Wikipedia - see Copy-paste.. Note that assertion of permission to use is not sufficient; to make a copyright release, it is necessary to follow the steps explained above.


 * However please note that even if the copyright issue were resolved, the promotional tone of a company or personal website is likely to be unsuitable for an encyclopedia article, which requires a neutral point of view. Article subjects need to have notability, which is not a matter of opinion but needs to be demonstrated by showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." There is more detail at WP:Notability (people) and for musical performers WP:MUSICBIO, and good advice on how to write an acceptable article at WP:Your first article.
