Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope that I don't seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but I noticed your username, and I am concerned that it might not meet Wikipedia's username policy. In brief:

There are four kinds of usernames that are specifically disallowed:

  • Misleading usernames imply relevant, misleading things about the contributor. Misleading names include those that imply you are in a position of authority over Wikipedia, or those that impersonate other people.
  • Promotional usernames are used to promote a group, company, product or website on Wikipedia.
  • Offensive usernames are those that offend other contributors, making harmonious editing difficult or impossible.
  • Disruptive usernames include outright trolling or personal attacks, or otherwise show a clear intent to disrupt Wikipedia.

I think your username may be a problem under one or more of these headings (you can find more details at Wikipedia:Username policy), and this needs to be addressed.

There are several options available to you:

  • We can talk about this, here - if you're not sure how or why your username might not meet policy, disagree that there's a problem, or are not sure what alternative to use.
  • You can abandon the contributions made under this name and immediately create a new account that meets our username policy. Happy editing!
  • Or, if you want to keep your contributions history under a new name, visit Wikipedia:Changing username and follow the instructions there.

A serious problem is it looks like you're a representative of Consolidated Developments who are now landlords of a substantial amount of Denmark Street's property. Please be aware that Wikipedia takes a neutral point of view and it has been widely documented in newspapers and magazines that the demolition of the area has been unpopular. Some of the musicians who have frequented "sit-ins" in the former 12 Bar Club on the street also read and edit Wikipedia. So you might be facing conflict and finding some of your edits are reverted - I had to do this just now for neutrality and verifiability reasons.

Just so you know, if we can't resolve this on our own, we can ask for help through Wikipedia's dispute resolution process, such as requesting comments from other Wikipedians. Wikipedia administrators usually abide by agreements reached through this process. Thanks. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 14:27, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You need to stop screwing around with this article, trying to highlight Denmark Street in the lede. It's not an article about Denmark Street, it's about the street in New York City. I've removed all mention of Denmark Street from the lede, as the statement is supposed to be a general one, and doesn't need a specific instance. BMK (talk) 16:43, 26 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
