User talk:Bowsersenior

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that 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. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If your username doesn't represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. If you prefer to be unblocked for the purpose of changing your username to a username which complies with our username policy, so that your contributions with this username are recorded as contributions of your new username and rather than creating a new account, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice instead. Thank you. Alexf(talk) 12:23, 25 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Whether you're editing anonymously or with a userid, you may never add an external link to a source/site that you are related to. So, one way or another, we're going to have to resolve that before moving forward (✉→BWilkins←✎) 11:46, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Heavens save me from wikipedia administrators
I don't agree with anything the administrators are saying. The wikipedia confict of interest page says: "This page in a nutshell: Do not edit Wikipedia to promote your own interests, or those of other individuals or of organizations, including employers. Do not write about these things unless you are certain that a neutral editor would agree that your edits improve Wikipedia." I added a link to a ruby unit testing tool to a list of ruby unit testing frameworks. The link is a reliable source, because it is the project's home page. Yes, I created the project and it is under my github username, but that does not mean that it is not a ruby unit testing tool.

I thought my addition improved wikipedia, but apparently the administrators have an ever-increasing number of concerns about my edit. At this point, I have no interest in having a wikipedia user account, given my experience of dealing with administrators who have not taken the time to understand the situation before blocking my username, which does not relate to any group or organization.

Administrators, get a clue! It's wikipedia. If you think my edit is not good, go and undo it. Don't block my username over your vague concerns.

I'll stop these unblock requests, delete my wikipedia account and steer clear of wikipedia administrators from now on.

Update: apparently, it is impossible to delete a wikipedia account:

In trying to find out how to delete my blocked and useless account, I ran across this very long wikipedia page on how to choose a username:

Apparently, wikipedia takes the choice of your username very seriously. Way too seriously, if you ask me...
