You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for advertising or promotion. From your contributions, this seems to be your only purpose. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page:.

 * As one of the editors who read your now deleted articles about yourself (Luciano Marazzo), your online business (Online Music Guild), your colleague there (Marta Bratkovic) and even one detailing the content one of your recital programs ("Serenade"), I can attest that they were all blatantly promotional and none of those subjects remotely passed the criteria for inclusion. If you are unblocked, are you intending to actually contribute to the encyclopedia in some other way, or do you simply plan to continue promoting yourself and your business?

We were working to articles about musicians who are not in the Guild for example: Composer Dominic Dousa (mentioned in the Serenade Article) who is not a colleague at the Online Music Guild, Matt Fish and Tobin Roye, Guitarists mentioned in Luciano Marazzo, Renato Serrano, a Guitarist who was a part of the Guild but we parted professional ways (RS won the Segovia competition in 2014 if i remember correctly). Lucia Boero is another example of someone I just spent 3 weeks with in 2004 ad never seen her again. QQ: How do you make quotations of sources not online??
 * VDT... I'd like some guidance and now that you do mention this, I can contribute in any way you'd like if you do point me in the right direction. Indeed the Online Music Guild does have a business oriented mindset but our work is to feature musicians regardless they are part of our operation or not. I am a pretty transparent individual and my contributions to Wikipedia started 2 days ago and my account was deleted very fast.

 * You have been because in spite of the numerous notifications and warnings (now in the archives) linking you to our rules, you continued to make inappropriate edits. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 20:44, 3 April 2016 (UTC)


 * Lmarazzo, Tobin Roye was one of your teachers and you played in a guitar ensemble with him. You had voice coaching from Lucia Boero. You perform pieces by Dominic Dousa in your "Serenade" events. You played in guitar ensembles with Matt Fish. You've had coaching from Renato Serrano and a (past?) business association with him (you still appear prominently on the front page of his website ). It all looks good on your CV, personal website, recital programs, etc. if these people appear to be notable by virtue of having a Wikipedia article. So no, neither you nor any of your colleagues or employees should be attempting to create articles about any of these people. More importantly, Renato Serrano and possibly Lucia Boero are the only ones of that lot who could conceivably pass the criteria at WP:MUSICBIO, although Boero had a relatively minor career as an opera singer. I strongly suggest you read that page from start to finish as well as the general criteria at WP:PEOPLE, the particularly strict requirements for biographies of living persons at WP:BLP, and what constitutes reliable sources at WP:RELY. If you really want to contribute to Wikipedia, then work on expanding the biographies and improving the referencing in articles on truly notable but dead people, e.g. Carlos Bonilla Chávez, Carlos Pedrell. When you feel ready to create an article, i.e. you fully understand proper referencing and sourcing, then choose one of the red links at Music encyclopedia topics. If you need to reference something to a newspaper article or book which is not online, then the full bibliographical information including page number(s) is required., e.g.
 * Strohm, Reinhard (2008). The Operas of Antonio Vivaldi, pp. 446–447. L.S. Olschki. ISBN 8822256824
 * Thompson, Jack (4 December 1955). "New Fortunes in Oil". New York Daily Mirror, p. 9.
 * I also note that one of the services your company appears to be offering, although the website is only half-finished. is Social Media Marketing . Given that and your past record, if you ever attempt creating an article on a living person, you should do so through Articles for creation, never directly in article space. All this of, course, is assuming that you are eventually unblocked, but from your comments above, you still do not appear "to get it". . Voceditenore (talk) 08:14, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

1) I thought adding sources would have helped. Apparently it just got on your nerve. I started reading the required pages you underlined but I could not finish yet. I am the type of person who jumps to the pool not even knowing if the water is cold or hot... maybe there might not even be any water. If my 271 edits on the 3-4 articles seemed forced and aggressive, I'd like to apologize because i honestly thought more sources would have helped. 2) I think I had about 11 of the 20 sources being sites completely independent and out of my control. Yet again, I am not asking for the site to be restored, I'd like my account to at least be in active status because I think the communications this weekend were just too fast and they probably open to missinterprettion of both words and actions. I thank you both kindly for your time to get the point across. If you do feel like unblocking me, I will kindly appreciate that and I will not post UNTIL I have fully read and understood the points. PS: Thanks for the note on our website. We had a big server crush and we lost 3 sites total. We are restoring them accordingly. Unfortunately, OMG had to be built from scratch again. Its not only SMM. We have a lot of holes still. Thanks LM
 * VDT and Kudpung. Thanks for showing me how things are done. I don't care about justifying actions yet there's two things I just want to touch base upon before we continue.


 * Lmarazzo, the problem here is not that you "got on our nerves" by trying to add further sources to the articles you already had created. There's nothing wrong with an attempt to improve sourcing, although you still clearly do not understand what type of sourcing is required to establish notability. The problem is that by April 1st, you already had multiple warnings about advertising yourself and your company with links to the relevant guidance and policy pages. Instead of taking stock of that, you went ahead the next day and created "Serenade", yet another article advertising yourself and your company. The only way you are going to get unblocked is to make an undertaking that you will not create any articles about anyone or anything remotely related to you or your company, nor will you add anything about them to any other articles. However, if your sole purpose for editing here is to continue creating such articles, then why would you want to be unblocked? It's simply not going to happen. I have every one of the 20+ red links from your four deleted articles on watch. It will become immediately apparent if you try to create articles on any of them.

 * VDT: I did get it. That was wrong. I will not make articles about myself nor my company nor anyone related.

Furthermore, I once again thank you for being there to make sure what needs to be in place for any article in Wiki to be valid. It tells me a lot on what I need to work on starting today. I thank you for that a lot.
