June 2009

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope not to seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but I noticed your username, and I am concerned that it might not meet Wikipedia's username policy for the following reason: Company/group names. After you look over that policy, could we discuss that concern here?

I'd appreciate learning your own views, for instance your reasons for wanting this particular name, and what alternative username you might accept that avoids raising this concern.

You have several options freely available to you:

• If you can relieve my concern through discussing it here, I can stop worrying about it.
• If the two of us can't agree here, we can ask for help through Wikipedia's dispute resolution process, such as requesting comments from other Wikipedians. Wikipedia administrators usually abide by agreements reached through this process.
• You can keep your contributions history under a new username. Visit Wikipedia:Changing username and follow the guidelines there.

Thank you. Jack Merridew 14:47, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi, please see the section of the user name policy concerning "Company/group names"; it's here: Wikipedia:Username policy#Company/group names. You should follow the link above and get your account renamed. You should also be aware of Wikipedia:Conflict of interest and Wikipedia:Spam. Cheers, Jack Merridew 14:52, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Old name

Did you just recreate your old name? -- Avi (talk) 15:51, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

No, I got a new name. It was only ASMFC Intern before Savethefish. —Preceding unsigned comment added by ASMFC Intern (talk • contribs) 15:52, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

I'm the bureaucrat who changes your name. It seems as if you accidentally re-created your old username. See http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AListUsers&username=ASMFC+Intern&group=&limit=1. For protective reasons, I'm going to indefinitely block the old one. Thanks. -- Avi (talk) 15:55, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
