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 {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} 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 {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

Request reason:

I did not realize you weren't able to post under a corporate name, even though I am a private person. I also didn't realize that I'm not supposed to post about someone I know, in any way, even if it's just music networking. I'd like to continue to contribute to Wikipedia as myself, and add to/update articles especially about new wave, dark wave and italo disco.

Accept reason:

Thank you for working hard to understand Wikipedia's policies and guidelines on the matter. Unblocked. Yamla (talk) 11:52, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

I've gone ahead and renamed your account to the requested username. Your username now meets policy, however an administrator still needs to unblock you. Sit tight and be sure to answer any questions they may have.—^cyberpower_{Chat:Limited Access} 03:24, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

Here are a few key questions:

• Do you understand that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and not a business directory?
• Do you understand conflict of interest?
• Do you understand that to be considered for an encyclopedia article, the subject must be notable?

You are currently blocked because your username appears directly related to a company, group or product that you have been promoting, contrary to the username policy. Changing the username will not allow you to violate the three important principles above.--v/r - TP 03:44, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

Answer to your questions TP:

• Yes I do understand that Wikipedia is an encyklopedia and not a buisness directory. I did start a very short and modest article on a Swedish music producer because UK/IE neutral sources kept asking for one. BUT ---->

• I did it as a member of the same music corporate as this producer. NOT a buisness/company, but a music network. This still conflicts with the intrests of Wikipedia WP:COI, and I have now learned that and won't make the same mistake again.

• Yes, I do understand that the subject must be notable, and the producer on which I started the article upon meets not only one but several of Wikpedias criteria for notability per WP:NMUSIC and reliable source, otherwise I would'nt have initiated it. But I'll never start an article on someone I know the slightest bit ever again, and make sure that the notability is of general interest before I initiate anything.

I do understand the huge conflict in using my old username RITElabel, and I should've read up on that before I started my Wikipedia. I will not violate the principles again.
