[edit] Hello

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia, I hope that you find your time here to be both productive and enjoyable. Looking at your userpage it appears you have chosen the name of a band as your username. I would like to point out to you that an account cannot be used by multiple people (See Wikipedia:Username policy#Sharing Accounts). If multiple people (such as multiple members of the band) are found to be using an account it will be blocked (see WP:BLOCK for more information). If you are just a fan or single member of the band then it may not be a problem but it could be considered to be promotional or misleading (implying that the account is used by the band or one of it's members); promotional and/or misleading usernames are not allowed per username policy (see WP:U). I would also like to note that you should not use your user page as advertisement or as a blog (see WP:NOT#ADVERTISING and WP:NOT#BLOG). I am sorry if I have completely misinterpreted the situation and your name has nothing to do with any external group, in which case disregard the above. If however you would like to change your username at this stage the best option would be to create a new account with a different username, if do not wish to change your user name at this point but change your mind in the future using Wikipedia:Changing username would allow you to retain your editing history. For more help see WP:HELP, for an outline of Wikipedia's fundamental principles see WP:5P or to contact me on my talk page go to User talk:Guest9999. Good luck with future editing, regards, Guest9999 (talk) 18:04, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
