September 2013
Hello, I'm C.Fred. I wanted to let you know that I removed an external link you added to the page Fuel (band), because it seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 02:00, 18 September 2013 (UTC)

Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended for publicity and/or promotional purposes. If you intend to edit constructively in other topic areas, you may be granted the right to continue under a change of username. Please read the following carefully.

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, website or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements and using Wikipedia for promotion. Wikipedia has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but such groups are generally discouraged from using Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.
 * Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Probably not, although if you can demonstrate a pattern of future editing in strict accordance with our neutral point of view policy, you may be granted this right. See Wikipedia's FAQ for Organizations for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, organization, or clients. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit Wikipedia again.
 * Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?


 * What can I do now?

If you have no interest in writing about some other topic than your organization, group, company, or product, you may consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead. If you do intend to make useful contributions here about some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:


 * Add the text on your user talk page.
 * Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy.
 * Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text below, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. -- Orange Mike &#x007C;  Talk  23:20, 18 September 2013 (UTC)

Moved thread: FUEL link please c.fred
''I am sorry, not understanding what you are saying, conflict? Also, it's not a fan site, it is the official forums for the band. The one that was there no longer exists and this one took it's place. Do you understand ? I'm new to this and as far as i know this boardis alowed because it's an official one? Fuelies4life (talk) 23:15, 18 September 2013 (UTC)'' (copied here from User talk:C.Fred)


 * The big issue is that they're forums. Because registration is required, they shouldn't be linked to per WP:ELREG. It is an official board, I concede that now. I concede it because it's linked from Fuel's official website—and because of that, we should not link to the boards per WP:ELMINOFFICIAL.


 * It's a different section of the WP:External links policy than I mentioned before, but either way, it's the same result: the fan forum should not be linked from the Wikipedia article. —C.Fred (talk) 23:48, 18 September 2013 (UTC)
