Speedy deletion nomination of The Purple Tape (EP)
Hello Itslilraypeople,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged The Purple Tape (EP) for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is significant enough to be included in an encyclopedia, and the artist doesn't have an article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Vanjagenije (talk) 22:57, 15 October 2013 (UTC)

Blocked
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. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   05:21, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Please be aware that adding articles about yourself and your music to Wikipedia is seen as self-promotion. Also, creating pages about yourself on userpages is also seen as spam. I assume that the username User:Lil Ray is also you, so I've blocked that as well. If you can show that you're willing to edit about things other than yourself and your music, you may be unblocked.

Contested deletion
This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... ( I am a rapper from Houston texas just trying to make a name and a place for my fans to learn more about thats not already public. I have worked with Chamillionaire and was part of Slim Thugs Boss Hogg Outlawz as you can see from there wiki. I am a beginner at this and i am learning as i go if i violate rules trust me its not intentional. Could you please advice me to where i violated rules and i would kindly change and find a better way to have it publisized. Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you. ) --Itslilraypeople (talk) 06:11, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
 * The first problem was that while you can put some information about yourself on a user page, it is not appropriate to edit it to where it looks like it's an article. The other problem was that several parts of it were promotional in tone, making it look like it was more like a press release or a fan blog than anything that should be on Wikipedia on either a userpage or a main page. Now the final problem was that there was no coverage in reliable sources to show that any of the information passed WP:MUSICBIO or WP:NALBUMS. This would be things such as say, a notable magazine covering you or your work, AllMusic giving a staff review for your music, or the like. We have to have coverage in order to pass notability guidelines, otherwise there can't be an article. It might sound harsh, but we're not here to promote or spread information about everything- just the stuff that passes our notability guidelines. I honestly don't see where you or your work passes notability guidelines at this point in time, as you haven't gotten any in-depth coverage and as notability isn't inherited by working with notable persons, we can't count that towards notability either. If you want to edit about something other than yourself and your music then we can see about unblocking you, but I'll be blunt and say that I won't unblock you if all you want to do is try to re-add yourself to Wikipedia. I think that you do have good intentions, but we're not a place for promotion. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   10:35, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
