User talk:BalletBlack

June 2024

Hello, I'm Blueskiesdry. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Ballet Black have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. Blueskiesdry (talk) 14:08, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Your account has been blocked from editing because your username gives the impression that the account represents a group, club, organization, company, or website. Your username is the principal reason for the block. You are welcome to continue editing after you have chosen a new username that complies with Wikipedia's username policy.

You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable, regardless of the username that you choose. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid or compensated in any way, you must disclose who is paying you to edit here. You may also read our FAQ for article subjects.

Please take a moment to either create a new account, or request a username change. The new username that you choose must represent you as an individual person, and it must comply with Wikipedia's username policy.

To create a new account with a different username, simply log out of this account and then click here to make a new one.
If you prefer to change the username for this account instead, you may do so by adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page (which is this page): {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be in use by another account. You can use this page to search the list of registered accounts and see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If your search returns that "there is no global account for" your search term, that means it is available.

Please also note that you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it also identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87", but not "SEO Manager at XYZ Company".

Appeals: If your username does not represent a group, organization, website, or other entity described above, and if you believe that this block was incorrect or made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page (which is this page): {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

Thank you. Q ^{T C} 14:30, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

BalletBlack (block log • active blocks • global blocks • autoblocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Requested username:

new username (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

Request reason:

I was not aware using a username which is the same as our page / company name was an issue. Can you update it to BBProducer? BalletBlack (talk) 15:24, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Decline reason:

No, that would also violate WP:USERNAME. Please review that policy then pick a new username. Yamla (talk) 15:29, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

OK please make it ‘Richard at Ballet Black’ 81.101.104.195 (talk) 20:14, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sign in to your account and make a new request, remembering to replace "new username" with your chosen name. --Yamla (talk) 21:11, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
