User talk:Holly at FireText

Help me!
Hello, I am trying to change the name of the page I have created but I don't know how. It is currently showing as User:FireText SMS but i'd like it to just read FireText. Am I able to do this?

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:FireText SMS, from its old location at User:FireText SMS. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. Chrisw80 (talk) 11:57, 18 February 2016 (UTC)

 * Hi, I have been trying to compose it similar to this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Textlocal which uses the business name. Can I use FireText SMS? — Preceding unsigned comment added by FireText (talk • contribs)


 * The issue itself isn't with the article FireText, but with your username on Wikipedia. Usernames must not be the name of a company - please pick a new username. Your name + FireText would be a good start --  samtar whisper 12:45, 18 February 2016 (UTC)

Ah ok, I thought you meant the article name! Happy to change the user name to my name just didn't want it to affect the page name :) My page has now been deleted, are you able to help me change the name to Holly at FireText so I can repost it FireText (talk) 13:53, 18 February 2016 (UTC)


 * Sure! Please see this form for details --  samtar whisper 13:55, 18 February 2016 (UTC)


 * Thanks so much

 * You do still have a copy of the article you are creating located at Draft:FireText SMS. If FireText SMS not the best name for the final article that draft article can be moved to a new article name once it has been approved, without having to start it all over. -- &#124;  Uncle Milty  &#124;  talk  &#124;  14:17, 18 February 2016 (UTC)


 * FWIW As a Cornish editor, I'd be interested in how this article turns out - it might not be notable as of yet, but I'll see if there's anything I can add to help it pass muster --  samtar whisper 14:26, 18 February 2016 (UTC)

thank you!

Thank you for your suggestions, I've added some further details and references. Holly at FireText (talk) 12:15, 19 February 2016 (UTC)

Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia with this username. This is because your username, Holly at FireText, 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. North America1000 07:52, 12 April 2016 (UTC)


 * I initially blocked this account because it seemed to be promotional in nature, however, another admin pointed out WP:ISU to me on my user talk page (diff), which allows this type of user name. As such, I then unblocked the account. North America1000 10:09, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
