User talk:Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame

February 2016
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. Jimfbleak - talk to me?  07:14, 24 February 2016 (UTC)


 * Your username is still not acceptable and you still need to request a new one, as explained in the block message. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 18:51, 24 February 2016 (UTC)


 * That's just the same problematic username again but with "(TSHF)" appended... oh never mind, I give up! Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 19:10, 24 February 2016 (UTC)


 * I don't understand the problem with the original username. Could you explain? I am just trying to give information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame (talk • contribs)


 * See in the block message where it says "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"? That means you need a username that does not appear to represent any kind of organization (in this case does not appear to represent the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame) but only an individual person - I'd suggest you go for one that does not contain any of the words "Tennessee", "Sports", "Hall" or "Fame". (Also, you don't need to put every reply inside a new unblock request - just the reply itself with ":" to indent and " ~ " at the end to automatically add your signature.)
