Your username
Your username is the same as that of noted television presenter (and prankster) Jeremy Beadle. To prevent impersonation of famous people by (other) pranksters, Wikipedia's username policy says that we don't allow "Names of well-known living or recently deceased people, such as Chuck Norris or Ken Lay, unless you are that living person." Consequently I'm going to block this account from editing. If you are Mr Beadle, please send an email to info-en@wikimedia.org who will confirm your identity and will reenable the account once they're satisfied that it's not being abused by another person. If you aren't Mr Beadle, however, please create a new account. -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 10:40, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
