User talk:Ibspatient

May 2021
Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Ibspatient", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because It representes an organization, www.ibspatient.org. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you.

I understand. I'm just trying to change my former username "ibsgroup" and I remembered that I had already created "ibspatient". I'll make a special request to change "ibsgroup" to a new username. Thanks.
 * "igsgroup" is also a policy problem (represents the group). You can use your personal name, or NameAtIbs (+patient/group) - mentioning the organization (IBS) is OK, but it needs to be clear it is a personal account of one individual person. Thanks!-- Eostrix  (&#x1F989; hoot hoot&#x1F989;) 16:31, 11 May 2021 (UTC)

 Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing because of the following problems: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

You may request a change of name and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions other than promoting your business or organization. To do this, first search Special:CentralAuth for available usernames that comply with the username policy. Once you have found an acceptable username, post the text at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked. In your reasons, you must:
 * Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the Paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your reason here" with the reasons you believe the block was an error, and publish the page. Orange Mike &#124;  Talk  02:34, 27 May 2021 (UTC)
