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 54.234.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪JJMC89‬ 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 or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation 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 colocation provider'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 colocation 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 or colocation provider (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 or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests 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 05:36, 2 January 2025.

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.

'''Ferret Music''' was an American [[independent record label]] turned [[Warner Music Group]] subsidiary, founded in 1996. The label is owned by [[metalcore]] band [[NORA (band)|NORA]]'s vocalist, Carl Severson, and based in [[West Windsor, New Jersey]].<ref>((Cite web|url=http://www.mtv.com/news/1565211/noras-frontman-is-sick-of-50-cent-plus-dethklok-amenta-more-news-that-rules-in-metal-file/|title=Nora's Frontman Is Sick Of 50 Cent; Plus Dethklok, Amenta & More News That Rules, In Metal File|website=Mtv.com|access-date=9 October 2020))</ref> Ferret recently started an imprint called New Weathermen Records. Warner Music Group's Alternative Distribution Alliance acquired a stake in Ferret Music in August, 2006,<ref>[https://archive.today/20120527003610/http://investors.wmg.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=182480&p=irol-newsArticle&ID=892742&highlight=/ Warner Music Group], Archive.today</ref>
and as a result is currently distributed by Fontana Distribution, Alternative Distribution Alliance and eOne Music.

As of September 12, 2007, Ferret partnered with an uprising [[extreme metal]] and [[hardcore punk]] label out of the UK, Siege of Amida Records (S.O.A.R.). S.O.A.R will retain [[A&R]] responsibilities. On February 18, 2010 Carl Severson and his business partner at Ferret and ChannelZERO, Paul Conroy, announced their departure from the company to start [[Good Fight Entertainment]], a management company with music and sports divisions along with a new record label.<ref>((Cite web|url=https://www.metalinsider.net/new-companies/ferret-music-owners-exit-label-form-good-fight-entertainment|title=Ferret Music Owners Exit Label, Form Good Fight EntertainmentMetal Insider|website=Metalinsider.net|date=18 February 2010|access-date=9 October 2020))</ref> Ferret's official website was last updated in 2009, adding to speculation that the label is defunct. According to Scott Mellinger, lead guitarist for [[Zao (American band)|Zao]], Ferret Records sold to Warner Music while Severson went on to start Good Fight.
