User talk:CHEM446WikiProject

This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because your username, CHEM446WikiProject, does not meet our username policy. '''Your username is the only reason for this block. You are welcome to choose a new username (see below).''' A username should not be promotional, related to a "real-world" group or organization, misleading, offensive, or disruptive. Also, usernames may not end in the word "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account. You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:
 * Adding on your user talk page. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "E-mail this user" on their talk page.
 * At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
 * 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. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Changing username.

If you feel that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. &mdash; RHaworth 10:06, 7 June 2011 (UTC)

New name
I am sorry, but corporate names are not allowed. Each member of this project should have their own user name.

You do not seem to have announced yourselves at School and university projects. Please do so and create User:CHEM446WikiProject as a redirect to that announcement. &mdash; RHaworth 10:06, 7 June 2011 (UTC)

I'm sorry, I was unaware that I needed to provide a reason for my change in username. I understand that the block is correct, but because my IP address is attached to CHEM446WikiProject, I can't create EEscalon until an administrator approves of my request. I searched for EEscalon in the Users list, and there's no one using that username.


 * Autoblock lifted, so you should be able to create a new account and, as instructed, please visit the school and university projects page linked above. Please also understand that if there are multiple participants in this project, each person will need a unique account. Thanks —DoRD (talk) 12:24, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

Redirect to Universities page has been made and EEscalona has been created. Thank you for your help — Preceding unsigned comment added by EEscalona (talk • contribs) 16:00, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

Just create
I never understand why you are told to request an unblock to create a new account. The block on your IP address should have expired by now. Simply create a new account! &mdash; RHaworth 09:13, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
 * No, the autoblock is still in place so I will lift it now. —DoRD (talk) 12:20, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
