Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia because your username, Masked Chinese Person, does not meet our username policy. Your username is the principal reason for the block. You are welcome to continue editing after you have selected a new username that meets the username policy guidelines, which are summarized below.Per the username policy, a username should represent an individual and should not: represent a group or organization; be promotional; be misleading (such as indicating possession of special user rights or being a ”Bot" account (unless approved for such purposes)); be offensive or otherwise disruptive. However, a username that contains the name of a organization and also identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or “FoobarFan87" is allowed, though, among others, the guidance on conflict of interest and the policy of paid-contribution disclosure are relevant.You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines and create the account yourself. Alternatively, if you wish for your existing contributions to carry over under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:
 * Adding below. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "Email this user" from their talk page.
 * At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a change of name request.
 * Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use. Therefore, please check the list here to see if a name is taken prior to requesting a change of name.

instead I'm willing to process the username change, but I don't see the issue with a user identifying as a masked Chinese person. 331dot (talk) 18:06, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
 * The concern is, and reason for this preventative soft block is based on recent experience with usernames that refer to China and COVID related themes (such as masks) that end up being wholly disruptive and offensive. As this user has taken the time to review the policy and respond here, I have removed the block and I will assume good faith that their contributions will be positive, N.J.A.  &#124; talk  12:33, 22 July 2020 (UTC)
