Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. However, I noticed that your username (ZoomTV) may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because ZoomTV is a television broadcaster in India whose web domain is zoomtv.in. As such, your name gives the appearance of representing them, all the more so since it seems that you are yourself from that country.. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account to use for editing. Thank you.Sitush (talk) 13:19, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

Hi Sitush, Thanks for the welcome. I chose this username since I work for ZoomTV, the same Indian Television Broadcaster you mentioned above. However I do not claim that I solely represent the entire channel. There are many colleagues of mine with different User names.

Something about us: We are here mainly to collect information about Bollywood and related articles and to help ourselves to verify and validate our information from various sources before we broadcast them on our channel. As you must have noticed, we cannot and are not here to contribute to Wikipedia massively but do get involve in editing in bits and pieces of some random pages. Me along with my colleagues are well aware of all Wiki Policies and that's the reason we refrain ourselves from getting into unnecessary Conflicts, Edit-Warring, Copyrights and other such issues and to avoid all these we generally make humble requests to the involved and active editors of their respective pages. Hope this satisfies and answers your concern. Please revert if you still feel my username would violate any of your policy or get Wiki into trouble at any point of time. I shall than consider of changing my Username.--ZoomTV (talk) 11:09, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

You must change your name, as noted above. It does not matter what your intent is or is not, sorry. - Sitush (talk) 11:31, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; you are welcome to create a new account with a username that represents only you. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline. If your username doesn't represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice. Thank you.
