User talk:JEAfamily1

November 2018

Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia with this username. This is because your username, JEAfamily1, does not meet our username policy.

Your username is the only reason for this block. You are welcome to choose a new username (see below) and continue editing.

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 and create the account yourself. 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}} below. 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 "Email 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 think that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below this notice, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. Longhair\^talk 14:01, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I am the granddaughter of James E. Allen, which is why I chose the name JEAfamily1

Decline reason:

Great. You'll still need to pick a new username, I'm afraid, as this username implies it is a family account rather than an account belonging to an individual. You'll also want to avoid writing about James E. Allen, as per WP:COI. Note that you have not done this, I'm just letting you know in advance, so you can avoid running into problems in that subject area. Yamla (talk) 20:42, 13 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
