First, I need to point out that to take a user name the same as that of an organisation is forbidden under our user name policy here and here. Normally I indefinitely block such names on sight, but in view of your posting on my page, I'm going to assume good faith and give you a chance to create a new account that identifies you as an individual, such as "Ava at China Aid" before I block this account. I'll deal with the other issues tomorrow since I will soon be logging off.

If you are blocked by another admin in the interim and want to contact me, you can post here. I may see the message sooner if you start your message with my user name, User:Jimfbleak and sign it with four tildes ~ when you post it. Jimfbleak - talk to me?  16:42, 8 September 2015 (UTC)

Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia with this username. This is because your username, Chinaaid, 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) and continue editing.''' 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 and create the account yourself. 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 think 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. Jimfbleak - talk to me?  05:56, 9 September 2015 (UTC)
