 Your account has been blocked indefinitely because the chosen username is a clear violation of our username policy – it is obviously profane, threatens, attacks or impersonates another person, or suggests that you do not intend to contribute positively to the encyclopedia (see our blocking and username policies for more information). We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia, but users are not allowed to edit with inappropriate usernames and we do not tolerate 'bad faith' editing such as trolling or other disruptive behavior. If you think there are good reasons why these don't describe your account, or why you should be unblocked, you are welcome to appeal this block – read our guide to appealing blocks to understand more about unblock requests, and then add the text at the end of your user talk page.

i made this username many many years ago, as it was the same as my username elsewhere.

i have made several valuable edits and have never violated a policy. i have taken time out of my day to request a useful edit. please do not punish me, if there is some way to change my name i will gladly change it.

i am not an editor of the calibre my name suggests.

please

username change to alibabaxiaodabian

 * I have renamed your account., I'll ask since this was a hard block, is the username the only concern here? 331dot (talk) 10:13, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

hi 331dot! thanks for helping me to change my username. i was actually quite shocked by the intervention yesterday. while i appreciate my former username cannot be considered appropriate, no attempt was made to discuss it with me. i had just made a legitimate request for a much needed edit on the page of former Prince Andrew Duke of York, who had his titles stripped from him yesterday in the UK. i felt (i believe reasonably) that this should be reflected on the wikipedia entry, and submitted an edit request to a more established editor (extended confirmed i believe) to that effect. then all of a sudden i was completely blocked. i doubt the block was politically motivated but it certainly came about very suddenly. i would enormously appreciate being reinstated as apart from that i am aware of no offence given. certainly none meant. if i made an error elsewhere i would really appreciate knowing what it was, so that if my editing privileges are reinstated i might avoid committing them again

thanks so much for your time Alibabaxiaodabian (talk) 11:11, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

It was more or less just the username, this is typically the kind of immature "gross out" username we see from schoolkid vandals, but the subject area of a possible sex offender on top of that didn't help. That being said, if you're satisfied, I'm totally ok with an unblock. Beeblebrox (talk) 18:38, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

i understand. just for the record, from what you say, sounds like we are in fact on the same page about said alleged sex offender. this pos’ noble attributes were officially stripped and i don’t think he should still be listed as prince anything duke of whatever. i’m sorry again to have prompted a bad reaction.

 * This "titles and styles" stuff can be confusing, but it is my understanding that he is banned from being called "his royal highness" but is still very much a prince and the Duke of York. It's more of a cosmetic thing that allows the royal family to let him fend for himself instead of relying on the crown to defend him. At least that's my understanding of it.
