User talk:Diediediediediediedie

May 2009
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope not to seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but I noticed your username, and I am concerned that it might not meet Wikipedia's username policy. After you look over that policy, could we discuss that concern here?

I'd appreciate learning your own views, for instance your reasons for wanting this particular name, and what alternative username you might accept that avoids raising this concern.

You have several options freely available to you:
 * If you can relieve my concern through discussing it here, I can stop worrying about it.
 * If the two of us can't agree here, we can ask for help through Wikipedia's dispute resolution process, such as requesting comments from other Wikipedians. Wikipedia administrators usually abide by agreements reached through this process.
 * You can keep your contributions history under a new username. Visit Changing username and follow the guidelines there.

 * Hi Dylan. I just like the name - could you explain what your concern is, exactly? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Diediediediediediedie (talk • contribs) 19:21, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Although I could be possibly mistaken (as I am human, and therefore can't possibly know everything), I am worried that other users may feel unnerved about your username; that is, they might possibly take it personally (that is, thinking you wish for them to die). Besides, death jokes aren't exactly appropriate at Wikipedia. :/ Please don't be chased off the project; we need all the good faith editors we can get! If I am correct, and your username really does violate policy, simply request a new name here. Best, &rarr;  Dylan 620  (Toolbox Alpha, Beta) 19:33, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I do think you're mistaken. It's sort of ironic or tongue-in-cheek rather than a joke per se. I also am non-infallible, admittedly, but I would think that surely noone could interpret a user-name as being directed against them personally. Unless they were already seriously disturbed. Not wishing to be a pain, but I do like the name. Thinking of a different one that I am comfortable with would be an arduous task. Diediediediediediedie (talk) 19:47, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Alright, I'll let this slide for now. Happy editing! &rarr;  Dylan 620  (Toolbox Alpha, Beta) 20:02, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
