This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because the username, JefffBeck, matches the name of a well-known, living person.

If you are the person represented by this username, please note that the practice of blocking such usernames is to protect you from being impersonated, not to discourage you from editing Wikipedia. You are welcome to continue to edit under this username, but we ask the following:

Please be willing and able to prove your identity to Wikipedia.
Please send an e-mail to info-en@wikimedia.org. Be aware that the volunteer response team that handles e-mail is indeed operated entirely by volunteers, and the reply may not be immediate.

If you are not the person represented by this username, you are welcome to choose a new username (see below).

A username should not be promotional, related to a "real-world" group or organization, misleading, offensive, or disruptive. Also, usernames may not end in the word "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account.

You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:

Adding {{unblock-un|your new username here}} on your user talk page. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "E-mail this user" on their talk page.
At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Wikipedia:Changing username.

If you feel that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|Your reason here}}, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. Alexf^(talk) 17:58, 25 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Can't perceive how to put a request there. JefffBeck (talk) 12:43, 26 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You must go to Wikipedia:Changing username/Simple and follow the instruction. However, I am actually not here about this issue. It's a response to your comment on my talk page. Pink Floyd discography looks nice and is near to get the FL status. However, I see some small issues. I will improve it after Radiohead discography and Simon & Garfunkel discography, which I nominated/improved, will pass the Featured List nomination process.
