Explanation
[edit]Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! I saw your message at User talk:Kudpung and his response. Here is what is going on: this account is about to be blocked because your username violates our policies. You will still be able to comment here on your talk page while you are blocked. I'll copy an explanation here and then explain more.
Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "WaterMusicPub", may not comply with our username policy. Please note that you may not use a username that represents the name of a company, group, organization, product, or website. Examples of usernames that are not allowed include "XYZ Company", "MyWidgetsUSA.com", and "Foobar Museum of Art". However, you are invited to use a username that contains such a name if it identifies you personally, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87".
Please also note that Wikipedia does not allow accounts to be shared by multiple people, and that you may not advocate for or promote any company, group, organization, product, or website, regardless of your username. Moreover, I recommend that you read our conflict of interest guideline. If you are a single individual and are willing to contribute to Wikipedia in an unbiased manner, please create a new account. Thank you. --MelanieN (talk) 20:58, 17 April 2017 (UTC)
The other problem is that you are here to create an account about your company. That is a conflict of interest and will generally not be allowed. For one thing, it will be almost impossible for you to be neutral about the company. Also, I see that a page by that name was deleted, twice, back in 2012. It was deleted because of this discussion: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Water Music Publishing. If those concerns are still true, then the company will still not qualify for an article. I just did a search and it looks like the company still does not meet our criteria at WP:NCORP. So, I'm sorry, but it will not be possible for you to create this article. If you try it will certainly get deleted, and probably the title will get locked so that it cannot be created any more. If your company expands and grows and becomes more notable, eventually some neutral person will write an article about it. In the meantime, remember that this is an international encyclopedia, not a business directory. --MelanieN (talk) 21:07, 17 April 2017 (UTC)

You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}
