User talk:Rose Water Sailor

June 2020[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy or request a change of username.

You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

Please also note that you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87".

If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page.

You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text

{{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}

at the bottom of your talk page. 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.

Thank you. Orange Mike | Talk 19:57, 30 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Hi there! Would it be possible to change my name? I picked the name because I like rosewater, but if it sounds like a company would 'Rose water sailor' be any better? Rose Water Rafting (talk) 7:12 pm, Yesterday (UTC+2)

Accept reason:

Allowing username change to requested username. Please put this request in at Wikipedia:Changing username as soon as possible to avoid re-blocking. Vanjagenije (talk) 21:42, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Orangemike: Is this proposed username fine? Vanjagenije (talk) 15:06, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I see nothing wrong with the new name. The old one just sounded too much like a company name, either one that sells trips or one that sells rafting equipment; and the new name has neither problem. --Orange Mike | Talk 17:09, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have requested a new username, thanks everybody!
