You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Edward Leon Sciaky''' (April 2, 1948&ndash;January 29, 2004) was an American rock radio disc jockey who spent his broadcasting career in the [[Philadelphia]] area.

==Early life==
He was born in [[New York City]] and raised in Philadelphia, where he graduated from [[Central High School (Philadelphia)|Central High School]], and then from [[Temple University]] where he majored in mathematics.

==Career==
Sciaky became known for promoting new talent, helping  establish the careers of scores of artists, most notably [[Bruce Springsteen]], [[Billy Joel]], [[David Bowie]], [[Janis Ian]], and [[Yes (band)|Yes]].<ref>[http://broadcastpioneers.com/edsciaky.html Ed Sciaky, a Broadcast Pioneer<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> Sciaky can also be heard introducing [[AC/DC]] on the [[Bonfire (album)#Live from the Atlantic Studios|Live from the Atlantic Studios]] CD off their 1997 boxset, [[Bonfire (album)|Bonfire]].

He was one of the first FM disc jockeys who thrived when given the chance to choose their own music, venturing beyond playing pop hits. Frequently, he would play lesser known songs that had personal meaning for himself or listeners. He was a good friend to many musicians who enjoyed his intelligent interviews and his knowledge of rock-n-roll. One of his best recording artist friends was Billy Joel, who at 23, had just released his ''[[Cold Spring Harbor (album)|Cold Spring Harbor]]'' album and was trying to promote it. Sciaky subsequently featured it on one his [[Sigma Sound]] broadcasts.

Sciaky provided the master tape of [[Yes (band)|Yes]]'s live version of [[The Beatles]]' "[[I'm Down]]" for the band's 1992 ''[[Yesyears]]'' box set.

Sciaky's broadcasting career, all in the Philadelphia area, covered [[WRTI]], [[WHAT (AM)|WHAT]], WXUR (in Media; unrelated to the modern WXUR), [[WDAS-FM|WDAS]], [[WMMR]], [[WIOQ]], [[WIP-FM|WYSP]], WMMR (again), and finally [[WMGK]].

In 2003, Sciaky's "Sunday With Springsteen" specialty show won a "Best Of Philly" award from Philadelphia Magazine.

The Broadcast Pioneers of Philadelphia [http://www.broadcastpioneers.com] posthumously inducted Sciaky into their Hall of Fame in 2005.

==Personal life== 
Sciaky lived on the Main Line, Philadelphia. His house was home to a substantial, well-organized music collection, as well as a rather large iguana, perhaps five feet long. The resting iguana would sometimes startle first time guests when it moved slightly and caught their attention.

He was married to Judy (Feldshur) Sciaky from 1969 until his death. They had one child in 1985, Monica, an opera singer with a doctorate in vocal arts, who married Eiki Isomura, who has his doctorate in conducting and is the son of world renowned violist Kazuhide Isomura.

==Death==
Sciaky died of complications from diabetes on January 29, 2004, at the age of 55. E Street drummer, Max Weinberg, and singer-songwriter, Steve Forbert, served as pallbearers at his funeral, which was attended by 1500 people.
