User talk:Sandbox for user warnings

The account with this username has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia, because of concerns that the chosen username may not meet our username policy.

This is often not a reflection on the user, and you are encouraged to choose a new account name which does meet our guidelines and are invited to contribute to Wikipedia under an appropriate username. If you feel this block was made in error, you may quickly and easily appeal it - see below.

Our username policy provides guidance on selecting your username. In brief, usernames should not be offensive, disruptive, promotional, related to a 'real-world' group or organization, or misleading. Also, usernames may not end with the string "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account.

If you have already made edits and wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name you may request a change in username. To do so, please follow these directions:

1. Add {{unblock-un|your new username here}} below. This is possible because even when you are blocked, you can still edit your own talk page.
2. At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
3. Please note, you may only request a name that is not already in use. The account is created upon acceptance – do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change since we can far easier allocate your new name to you, if it is not yet used. Usernames that have already been taken are listed here. For more information, please visit Wikipedia:Changing username. Keep in mind, though, that creating a new account is much faster and easier.

Last, the automated software systems that prevent vandalism may have been activated, which can cause new account creation to be blocked also. If you have not acted in a deliberately inappropriate manner, please let us know if this happens, and we will deactivate the block as soon as possible. You may also appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|your reason here}} below or emailing the administrator who blocked you.

This user is asking that their block be reviewed:

Sandbox for user warnings (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

---

Request reason:

Please read the text below this unblock request, which I was writing as the block notice was being placed. It is my understanding that talk pages of blocked users are temporary, so I would like this account to be unblocked so that there is a permanent place for users to perform warning tests on user talk pages. If such an account already exists, please let me know. I do not intend to ever use this account again, but it is one which would be very useful to have available for all users to experiment on.

Notes:

• In some cases, you may not in fact be blocked, or your block has already expired. Please check the list of active blocks. If no block is listed, then you have been autoblocked by the automated anti-vandalism systems. Please remove this request and follow these instructions instead for quick attention by an administrator.
• Please read our guide to appealing blocks to make sure that your unblock request will help your case. You may change your request at any time.

Administrator use only:

If you ask the blocking administrator to comment on this request, replace this template with the following, replacing "blocking administrator" with the name of the blocking admin:

{{Unblock on hold |1=blocking administrator |2=Please read the text below this unblock request, which I was writing as the block notice was being placed. It is my understanding that talk pages of blocked users are temporary, so I would like this account to be unblocked so that there is a permanent place for users to perform warning tests on user talk pages. If such an account already exists, please let me know. I do not intend to ever use this account again, but it is one which would be very useful to have available for all users to experiment on. |3 = ~~~~}}

If you decline the unblock request, replace this template with the following code, substituting {{subst:Decline reason here}} with a specific rationale. Leaving the decline reason unchanged will result in display of a default reason, explaining why the request was declined.

{{unblock reviewed |1=Please read the text below this unblock request, which I was writing as the block notice was being placed. It is my understanding that talk pages of blocked users are temporary, so I would like this account to be unblocked so that there is a permanent place for users to perform warning tests on user talk pages. If such an account already exists, please let me know. I do not intend to ever use this account again, but it is one which would be very useful to have available for all users to experiment on. |decline = {{subst:Decline reason here}} ~~~~}}

If you accept the unblock request, replace this template with the following, substituting Accept reason here with your rationale:

{{unblock reviewed |1=Please read the text below this unblock request, which I was writing as the block notice was being placed. It is my understanding that talk pages of blocked users are temporary, so I would like this account to be unblocked so that there is a permanent place for users to perform warning tests on user talk pages.

This account is for testing user warnings and notices

To all users: Please feel free to leave any warnings or notices here, or to use this page as you would any other sandbox.

This is useful for performing tests using tools such as Twinkle, which will only issue a user warning on a user's page.

Note: Please do not report this user to Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism based on the warnings which you may see here, since they are merely tests. (Check this user's contributions.)

Please leave this explanation in place, and perform your test edits below.
