Reporting this user due to username concerns. I cannot report this user using normal channels (i.e. on a Project namespace page) as I was released from my block following a set of conditions, one of which was 'don't edit on Project namespace pages'.

Thank you very much for creating a username, it's the first step to becoming a respected member of the community. Here are a couple of pages you might find useful. I won't go into great detail here, but if you ever need any help, you can always try Help:Contents. So, the pages:


 * Your first article - how to construct a great first article!
 * Cheatsheet - essential in learning about the different buttons you see when you click 'edit this page'.
 * User:/Sandbox - your very own sandbox where you can fiddle around with the buttons on 'edit this page'.

I hope you enjoy being a Wikipedian! Always remember to sign your name with the four tildes ( ~ ) on any talk page (not in any article) - this will produce your name and date, similar to what will appear at the end of this message. Remember, if you need any help at all, check out Help:Contents, my talk page or the help desk. Or if you like, place on your talk page (this page) and someone will swing by soon. Once again, welcome, ! Auroranorth 13:28, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

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.

Let me reassure you that my writing here means I don't think your username is grossly, blatantly, or obviously inappropriate; such names get reported straight to Usernames for administrator attention or blocked on sight. This is more a case where opinions might differ, and it would be good to reach some consensus — either here or at Requests for comment/User names. So I look forward to a friendly discussion, and to enjoying your continued participation on Wikipedia. Auroranorth 13:29, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
