User talk:SWINDONBOWLCONCERTS

Hi
and welcome to Wikipedia. I'd just like you to take a moment to look at a couple of policies: WP:COI especially if you are connected with the Bowl or the concerts, and WP:GNG and WP:RS (OK, that's three...) for general notability and reliable sources. I am assuming you are planning to put an article onto the mainspace - if this is all you have in mind here, you might well be falling foul of two more policies (it's ALL policies here): WP:NOTWEBSPACE or WP:SPAM. You don't need telling what they are about... Anyway, now you've ventured in here, I hope you enjoy editing here and feel free to contact me or any regular editor for advice. (You can contact irregular editors too, but you're more likely to get a quicker and more sensible response from the regulars.) Peridon (talk) 20:28, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended or used for publicity and/or promotional purposes. Please read the following carefully.

Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, celebrity or other well-known individual, 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.

Probably not. See WP:FAQ/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, or organization. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.
 * Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?

You are still welcome to write about something other than your company or organization. If you do intend to make useful contributions on some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:
 * What can I do now?


 * 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, please see how to appeal a block. HJ Mitchell &#124;  Penny for your thoughts?   22:58, 21 March 2011 (UTC)
