Robot clerk note: The username Collinsbarrowtoronto does not exist.—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 17:10, 7 June 2016 (UTC)- It appears that you are confusing your username for an article. Your username is the name of the account you use to log in to Wikipedia. Every user has a userpage, which is their username prefixed with "User:" (e.g. User:K6ka is my userpage). An article is any page in the main namespace, and does not have a prefix. For example, the Food article doesn't have a prefix to it. Articles are not linked to usernames or userpages; they are a separate entity. Your current userpage can be located by going to Special:MyPage. Also, every user has a user talk page, which is their username prefixed with "User talk:" (e.g. User talk:K6ka is my user talk page); this page is used to leave messages for and communicate with the user it belongs to.
- Are you trying to write an article? You may wish to read our guide on creating your first article on Wikipedia. Also, a quick Google search of your username reveals that your username is the name of a company or organization, and under policy, such names are not permitted. Please pick a name that is either entirely personalized (e.g. "FooBarium 555"), or clearly indicates that you are an individual working for the company (e.g. "John Doe at Example Industries"; do not use a company position, so "Secretary of Example Industries" is not acceptable). Please note that accounts must belong to one person and one person only; sharing accounts is not permissible. You may wish to change your username to a more appropriate one by filing a new request on this page. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 19:30, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

- I have removed multiple speedy tags and it looks like Wright231 has two alternate names listed, roast23 and JayJay21. Wright231, you need to state which of the two names you'd prefer. You also need to give a reason - putting a speedy tag is not the way to go about this since this tag is meant to delete pages, not change usernames. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 07:02, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
- Also, repeatedly posting requests does not make the process go faster. Please be patient. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 07:02, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
