May 2013[edit]
Hello, I'm Binksternet. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to Mambo (music) because it appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Mambo (music). While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 12:34, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that the username you have chosen, "Entertainementgroup", seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of something other than yourself. Please note that you may not edit on behalf of a company, group, institution, product, or website, and Wikipedia does not allow usernames that are promotional or accounts that are shared. If you are willing to use a personal account, please take a moment to create a new account or request a username change that represents only yourself as an individual. You should also read our Conflict of interest guideline and Plain and simple conflict of interest guide, and remember that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 12:38, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at Mambo (music), you may be blocked from editing. Binksternet (talk) 14:26, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
Your recent editing history at Mambo (music) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Binksternet (talk) 17:18, 18 May 2013 (UTC)

- What are you talking about? Promotion? Jo and the Latin Boys have been posted on mambo music because they are an extremely important part of mambo History. They have been out of the music biz for 60 years and they absolutely didn't care about it. Tito Puente asked Jo's son to retrace their history which has been lost thru digital time. Only this month we have ben able to have info. This later on will be published in major latin music issues such as Buena Vista social Club. Obviously you don't know anything about mambo music to delete such info of a pioneer band in latin music during the 1940's. Yo will simply look like fools when tall their work which is now transferred to digital from 78 rpm will be recognized by the all latin music community. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Entertainementgroup (talk • contribs)
- Certainly the article will be worth saving if the artist becomes notable in modern times, with the music re-issued and discussed in the music industry. Wikipedia expects that other publications will notice the band first, with Wikipedia to follow. Wikipedia is not for publishing things that have never before been published. There is a hard-and-fast rule against that, called WP:No original research. Once the trade magazines start talking about Jo & the Latin Boys then the article will be kept.

- For your convenience, I put your comments into the deletion discussion with this addition. You are welcome to go to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jo and The Latin Boys and argue your case there. Binksternet (talk) 18:24, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
