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

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. You have violated one or more of our rules, including rules against adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements, using Wikipedia for promotion, and editing inappropriately with a conflict of interest. This kind of activity is considered spamming and is forbidden by Wikipedia's policies. Although Wikipedia has a great many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, it is considered inappropriate for such groups to use Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.
 * Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Probably not. See FAQ/Organization for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. See Conflict of interest for 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 here, 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 below this message box.
 * 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.

 * You have not described the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  14:40, 18 December 2009 (UTC)


 * So your only intention is to write about the one topic you can't write about? -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  21:22, 21 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Here's what I suggest: I imagine San Berdoo articles, especially those on the arts, could use more eyes and more expertise. You're too closely involved with the Symphony to write about the Symphony; however, you could provide information on the Symphony article talk page, giving information with reliable sources, that other interested editors will then be able to enter into the article in a non-promotional, neutral point of view matter. And of course you could contribute freely to any other articles you desired (with, if you like, an emphasis on San Bernardino arts and music). If you just want to write about your employer, though, it will be difficult. --jpgordon:==( o ) 00:09, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
