Your username

Welcome to Wikipedia. I saw that you edited or created Nathan Sykes, and I noticed that your username, "JMGlobal", 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 "Jack 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 or request a change of username, by completing this form, choosing a username that complies with our username policy. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 15:27, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I have had my username approved and has changed. -----

Thank you. You still need to review this page about conflict of interest before further edits; additionally, if you are editing Wikipedia as part of your job or if you are a paid representative of Mr. Sykes you are required by Wikipedia's Terms of Use to comply with the Paid editing policy and declare such status. 331dot (talk) 16:37, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Nathan Sykes. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Nathan Sykes, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 15:49, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Nathan Sykes. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing Wikipedia. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 16:09, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Personal Life and Filmography are both irrelevant and we'd like to remove from the page please. Thank you. ------- Hi, Nathan Sykes is not an EDM artist or a record producer. He may also not be best known for being in the wanted now as he has his own solo career, however he was formerly in the band. Can you please revert back to these changes. Thank you. -------

His personal life and work is not irrelevant to an article about him. Every Wikipedia article on a person who has worked in film has this content. Please comment on your username and any possible conflict of interest, as described at the top of this page. 331dot (talk) 16:27, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Can we please take out EDM and record producer as these are both incorrect. He may also not be best known for being in the wanted now as he has his own solo career, however he was formerly in the band. Please accept these changes. _____

I do not know if his career in the band is more notable than his solo career, but this sort of thing needs to be discussed on the article talk page, especially if you have a conflict of interest(in which case you should not make any changes to the page directly). 331dot (talk) 16:39, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, he isn't an EDM artist or a record producer. ---

As I've stated, that sort of opinion should be discussed on the article talk page. I assume those terms were put there for good reason. I will ask you one last time to declare any conflict of interest or paid editing association you may have(the latter of which is required in order to be allowed to use Wikipedia if you have a paid association). 331dot (talk) 17:00, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of Conflict of interest noticeboard discussion

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 72 hours for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

You need to list the photographer for this photo File:Nathan_James_Sykes.jpg. Best Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 07:09, 27 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The file lists your former username, which makes it hard if someone wanted to contact you about the image. Also, it's just fair and ethical to list the photographer's name (and photographers really appreciate getting proper credit) as the author of an image. It's usually okay on Commons to provide a website for the photographer, too. Just click here and use something like [http://www.Joe-the-Photographer.com Joe Smith] or [http://www.flickr.com/Joe's-flickr-feed Joe Smith] instead of [[User:FormerUsername]]. (You are not blocked on Commons, so you can do this now.) If you were the photographer personally, then please update the file's description to show your new username. Thanks, WhatamIdoing (talk) 08:33, 27 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Talking of photographers, I noticed the image on Commons at File:Nathan Ja Sykes.jpg gives the email address of the photographer in the metadata. Can we contact this person to confirm the image is free to use? anemone projectors 12:11, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
