Talk:Sasha Waters

Request to Wiki Admins - please move this page to "Sasha Waters"
I am blocked editing this page. I am writing to kindly ask that you move the page called "Sasha Waters Freyer" to "Sasha Waters." My professional name has been "Sasha Waters" for some time now,

Below I am dropping links to several examples in which my name appears professionally as "Sasha Waters."

I would really appreciate your assistance in clearing up this matter.

 * Hi Sasha, I know we didn't have the best interactions before, but I'd still like to offer some help. If you want request to be seen, you should consider using the requested move template: .  Nobody  ( talk ) 05:30, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I appreciate it. I have emailed David Fuchs a couple of times asking him to unblock me and/or move the page, but have not heard back. I understand this is a collective, commons space, but I hope you understand that the issue of my name being listed properly is important to me. Again, though, thanks for reaching out. hockeymom (talk) 18:31, 26 June 2024 (UTC)

Sasha Waters Freyer → Sasha Waters – I have been using the name "Sasha Waters" professionally since 2022, but I am unable to MOVE this page. I understand that in the past administrators concluded I was trying to "build an encyclopedia" of some sort, however, I still disagree with that assertion. From my perspective, I was modeling my page on other feminist filmmakers of my cohort and age (and older, who I admire) such as Lynne Sachs, Irene Lusztig, Su Friedrich and more. That said, it really is a problem for me personally to have the page name not reflect my actual professional name, Sasha Waters, which I'm sure you can understand. I was able to make this change on IMDB, for example, in about a minute. Below are links to recent pubic screenings at which I am credited as "Sasha Waters."

 * Comment OP clearly has a WP:COI here. There is some history worth reading at User talk:Swaters68. 162 etc. (talk) 05:15, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Hello, I believe I have addressed this question, but I am happy to provide more information as needed. I don't believe there is any COI involved in requesting that a person's professional name be listed properly.  Even though that person happens to be me, this seems like a neutral proposition.  Thanks - Sasha Waters 189.217.82.16 (talk) 14:42, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
 * The guideline is at WP:COISELF.
 * I'll note that while the COI for User:Swaters68 is in fact disclosed at the top of this talk page, the RM request is signed as "hockeymom" - it's not obvious at first glance that the two are the same account. 162 etc. (talk) 19:13, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
