Question
Are you actually D'Angelo Russell? ~ EDDY  ( talk / contribs ) ~ 02:21, 4 July 2015 (UTC)

Karl-Anthony Towns
Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia! Please read the warning comment on the 2015 NBA draftees prior to adding information about the team that drafted them to the infobox, as you did in Karl-Anthony Towns. As he hasn't signed with his team yet, he is not yet a player. It would be factually inaccurate to include information about that team in his infobox as if he were actually a player on that team. When he is signed, feel free to re-add the information with a source. Thanks! ~ RobTalk 02:25, 4 July 2015 (UTC)

There is currently a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding your username, as it is the same name as a living celebrity, D'Angelo Russell. The thread is User with the username of a living celebrity. Thank you. --A guy saved by Jesus (talk) 03:31, 4 July 2015 (UTC)

This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because the username, Dangelorussell, matches the name of a well-known, living person.

If you are the person represented by this username, please note that the practice of blocking such usernames is to protect you from being impersonated, not to discourage you from editing Wikipedia. You are welcome to continue to edit under this username, but we ask the following:
 * Please be willing and able to prove your identity to Wikipedia.
 * Please send an e-mail to info-en[[Image:At sign.svg|15px|@]]wikimedia.org. Be aware that the volunteer response team that handles e-mail is indeed operated entirely by volunteers, and the reply may not be immediate.

If you are not the person represented by this username, 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 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. Neil N  talk to me 03:49, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
