Speedy deletion nomination of User:The Band CAMINO


A tag has been placed on your user page, User:The Band CAMINO, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be blatant advertising which only promotes or publicises a company, product, group or service, and which is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages; user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. GABgab 22:32, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

Contested deletion
This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... (The Band CAMINO is a very up and coming band from Memphis, Tennessee. They have a fan base and a great following on all social media platforms. This page is to tell their fans and people interested in their music what they are all about. This is not for promotional reasons, but to gain the band more credibility and for fans to be updated with their successes.) --The Band CAMINO (talk) 22:44, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

There have been two problems with this account: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing.

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 your talk 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 at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Jimfbleak - talk to me?  06:40, 21 July 2016 (UTC)


 * I'm sad to report that someone's Wordpress blog does not meet reliable sources criteria. OhNo itsJamie Talk 19:37, 27 July 2016 (UTC)


 * According to Wikipedia's WP:COI policy, you shouldn't edit anything about your band. I can unblock you if you explicitly promise not to write anything about your band and other stuff you are personally connected to. Can you do that?  Vanjagenije  (talk)  16:38, 28 July 2016 (UTC)
