Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that the username you have chosen, "Hummingbirdhk", seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of a group, company or website. Please note that Wikipedia does not allow usernames that are promotional or appear to be shared by multiple people. Please take a moment to create a new account or request a username change that represents only yourself as an individual. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and remember that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you. Deryck C. 08:30, 20 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

File permission problem with File:Lupo-headshot.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:Lupo-headshot.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. January (talk) 06:07, 10 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Lupo Groinig edit

 

The article Lupo Groinig has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Speedy deletion nomination of Tan Chang (張丹) edit

 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Tan Chang (張丹) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.

Username block - please contact admin edit

 
This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because your username, Hummingbirdhk, does not meet our username policy.

Your username is the only reason for this block. You are welcome to choose a new username (see below).

A username should not be promotional or imply that it represents an organization rather than an individual. 

You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:

  1. Adding {{unblock-un|your new username here}} on your user talk page. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "E-mail this user" on their talk page.
  2. At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
  3. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Wikipedia:Changing username.
If you feel that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|Your reason here}}, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. Deryck C. 11:43, 10 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
 
This user's request to be unblocked to request a change in username has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without a good reason (see the blocking policy). Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Decline reason:

Despite the fact that the blocking administrator ahs given a block notice saying "Your username is the only reason for this block", there is, in fact, another issue. Your editing has clearly been promotion on behalf of your business. At the very least, you need to respond to the questions Daniel Case has given you (below), and you are not likely to be unblocked unless you make it clear that your future editing will not be promotional, and preferably that you intend to edit on subjects other than your business and the people associated with it.

Hummingbirdhk (talk) 08:42, 12 September 2012 (UTC) Here are a few key questions:Reply

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 3 important principles above. Daniel Case (talk) 13:06, 12 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

I'll help you put in the request to change your username. Please also consider the questions Daniel posted above to help you make future edits in a way that is appropriate given your conflict of interest. Deryck C. 14:25, 12 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
In addition, Wikipedia's software automatically capitalises the first letter of all usernames, so your name will appear as "Stephaniehbm". Are you fine with that? (Wikipedia usernames are case-sensitive except for the first letter, which is always capital.) Deryck C. 14:31, 12 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
Note: The proposed new username still includes the initials of the company name (Hummingbird Music) that the account has been promoting.--Jezebel'sPonyobons mots 16:31, 12 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
That's not a concern. See Wikipedia:Username_policy#Usernames_implying_shared_use bullet point 3. (Thanks Ponyo; I didn't spot that because HBM looks perfectly normal as a person's initials...) Deryck C. 16:51, 12 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
