If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article
Bankruptcy, you may have a
conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's
neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for businesses.

This kind of activity is considered spamming and is forbidden by Wikipedia policies. In addition, the use of a username like yours violates our username policy.
You may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|your reason here}} below or emailing the administrator who blocked you.
Your reason should include your response to this issue and a new username you wish to adopt that does not violate our username policy (specifically, understand that accounts are for individuals, not companies or groups, and that your username should reflect this). Usernames that have already been taken are listed here.

Request reason:
Citing oneself is not prohibited in the policy WP:COS which states: "This policy does not prohibit editors with specialist knowledge from adding their knowledge to Wikipedia, but it does prohibit them from drawing on their personal knowledge without citing their sources." (Which is why I added the book that seems to be causing this block, it is a citation of a verifiable source.) The policy continues to say: "If an editor has published the results of his or her research in a reliable publication, the editor may cite that source while writing in the third person and complying with our neutrality policy." (I believe the tone of the edits I made were neutral. If not, we can modify them to be neutral rather than completely blocking this user - please indicate if that is the case. Also, under username policy it states that "editing an article about your employer, is not disallowed" which can be interpreted to mean it is allowed.)

Decline reason:
Agree with the block. This appears to be a WP:Role account, which is not allowed on Wikipedia. — Cirt ( talk) 01:58, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Houlihan Lokey logo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. 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).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. -- B-bot ( talk) 17:25, 28 April 2017 (UTC)
