Blackstar Amplification editing

Hi Uhai,

I am Oli from Blackstar's marketing department and I have been trying to update our wikipedia page so that it is more up to date with our current product range (while remaining impartial). I see that you have undone a lot of the changes I have made and was just wondering what needs to be done so I can have these changes implemented? I'm more than happy for you to audit what I've done if needs be.

Thanks,

@Blackstarampsmarketing: Your edits to the page have been unsourced and promotional-sounding, which is why they have been reverted. I highly recommend you do not edit this page as there is a serious conflict of interest (see WP:COI for more information). Additionally, you will need to disclose yourself as a paid editor. I will post a message to your talk page shortly explaining how to do this. Finally, your username is a violation of the username policy as it represents the name of a company and implies shared use. Because of this, you may be blocked from editing and you will need to follow the instructions in the block notice posted to your talk page to request an unblock and username change.

In this case, can I suggest what edits we need to be made and can you action them? It would pretty much entail the changes I made but obviously through your own audit.
We're basically trying to update the wikipedia page so it encompasses everything listed here: https://blackstaramps.com/see-all-series/ Blackstarampsmarketing (talk) 15:44, 1 December 2022 (UTC)

how to change the title of a page

Hi Huhai, this is to kindly inform you that the artist Sananda Maitreya in person asked to please rename the page and the URL with his name: Sananda Maitreya from Terence Trent D'Arby. We have no conflict of interest nor any economical benefit around this request, it surprised us to see that you have incorrectly flagged this request as "paid editing". We can validate the Verifiability (V) and could you kindly explain how come a living person, who is a respected artist worldwide, cannot choose how to display himself in the wikipedia page with HIS NAME ?

thank you for your help in this matter. Kind regards team SM

@Sananda Maitreya - staff: What is your relationship to this individual? Because if you are a staff member of his (as your name suggests) who is paid by him then you are considered a paid editor and must disclose. Uhai (talk) 15:10, 4 December 2022 (UTC)

@Sananda Maitreya - staff: Thank you for the clarification that you are not a paid editor. However, note there is still a conflict of interest here, so please see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest.
Additionally, per the notice I left on your talk page, your username is a violation of Wikipedia policy so I recommend you follow the instructions there to rename your account.
If you'd like to request that the Terence Trent D'Arby page be renamed, you can do so by following the instructions at Wikipedia:Requested moves.
Please let me know if you have further questions. Uhai (talk) 15:30, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
Thank you, however you did not reply on how we can ask for a change in the TITLE of the page and in the URL?
Can you please provide us with the relevant information so we may proceed? Thank you!
and WHO has to request this change if not the ARTIST himself?
https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sananda_Maitreya
we just request to have the page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sananda_Maitreya
without the redirect currently in place.
it is not THAT difficult at all, although it seems like it is deliberately made VERY difficult.
Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter, which is very dear to our heart. Sananda Maitreya - staff (talk) 15:40, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
@Sananda Maitreya - staff: The title of the page and what appears in the URL are the same thing, so my reply did include instructions about how you can ask for this.
Please follow the instructions here: WP:RSPM to start a discussion about moving/re-titling the page from Terence Trent D'Arby to Sananda Maitreya. Uhai (talk) 15:54, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
thank you very much Uhai for your help!
I just followed your advice and opened this thread:
