Sockpuppetry case
You are suspected of sockpuppetry, which means that someone suspects you of using multiple Wikipedia accounts for prohibited purposes. Please make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, then, if you wish to do so, respond to the evidence at Sockpuppet investigations/GrantEdwards. Thank you.

Unblock discussion
Thank you for explaining the context regarding your use of multiple accounts. There are a few additional concerns that I would like to address before we unblock you. Firstly, you state that you represent Kid Laroi. Because of your external relationship with the subject of the article, you have a conflict of interest (COI)—Wikipedia has certain guidelines with respect to editing with a COI that you can read at Conflict of interest. In particular, you should:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Conflict of interest);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Paid-contribution disclosure.

Finally, please understand that we cannot change or include information just because an editor claims to be affiliated with the subject. We need references to reliable sources for verifiability. In this case, it seems that there are several sources which verify that Grade A Productions had at least something to do with The Kid Laroi (for example, see this Billboard article, which states LAROI ultimately reached a partnership agreement with Grade A and Columbia Records -- with chairman/CEO Ron Perry personally doing the A&R work and signing him to Columbia, according to the label -- in April 2019). I would ask that you please stop editing the article to remove Grade A Productions until there is a consensus on the article's talk page clarifying this matter. Repeatedly reverting an article back to your preferred version is also disruptive and may result in another block from editing.

If you indicate here that you understand the above considerations, as well as disclose any financial relationship that you may have with the subject, I may be willing to unblock this account. Mz7 (talk) 03:55, 8 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Just noting that this user wants to use this account and not User talk:GrantEdwards, I closed that unblock request, but I don't know if we will want to indef that one. 331dot (talk) 07:56, 8 May 2021 (UTC)
