You have been blocked indefinitely from editing, because this account has been used only for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to Wikipedia's content policy. Also, your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group, which is against Wikipedia's policy: an account is for an individual, not a group. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a free advertising service.

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text at the bottom of this page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth 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 kind of 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. Just Chilling (talk) 19:34, 1 December 2015 (UTC)


 * To add some more explanation about creating Wikipedia articles, if you were to create an article about the Fingal Film Festival it would need to be at Fingal Film Festival and not at User:Fingal Film Festival - the former is an encyclopedia article, while the latter is a user page. And whether an article at Fingal Film Festival would be permissible would be determined by whether it is of sufficient notability (see WP:N) which could be backed up by sufficient reliable sources (see WP:RS) covering it in depth. I don't know if the notability is there, but as it appears to be a relatively new festival it might not be - as I say, it would depend on the coverage. But even if it is sufficiently notable, you would also not be able to write in in the promotional marketing style of your deleted user page (and certainly not in the first person, "We..."). And it's got nothing to do with financial gain - writing in a style to make something sound good is considered promotion, whether it's a FTSE 100 company or a tiny charity, and is not what an encyclopedia is for.
