April 2016

Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that you made a change to an article, The Calling (Hilltop Hoods album), but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Jim1138 (talk) 06:43, 10 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

User name concerns

Reviewing I see that no one has mentioned the issue of your user name. Your user name is obviously related to article Hilltop Hoods and you have been making edits to that article. Please review the Wikipedia guidelines conflict of interest and WP:USERNAME. I have not looked at your edits to that article so please don't see this as accusation/negativism, but you could imagine people might be concerned that you are editing as an insider/member/etc. I'm just giving you a "heads up" that you should review those guidelines to be ready in case people freak out. Here's me mentioning this same problem to another user, for a bit more background. Shenme (talk) 05:56, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

May 2018

There have been two problems with this account: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group or a web site, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing.

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In that reason, you must:

Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Longhair\^talk 04:07, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- I don't have any connection to Hilltop Hoods. Hilltophood (talk) 10:04, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Hello, and thanks for the invite back to comment here. I have no problem with unblocking this user as their edits to date are constructive and their new choice of username isn't controversial or against policy in any way. I wish them all the best and I also think the Hilltop Hoods are great... no issues here mate :D -- Longhair\^talk 10:19, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
