User talk:Neighborhoodpals

May 2019
Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy or request a change of username. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. Additionally, If you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for your contributions to Wikipedia, you must disclose who is paying you to edit. If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page. You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page. 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. Thank you. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 15:33, 24 May 2019 (UTC)

(edit conflict) You don't need to use your real name, in fact, there are good reasons not to, but it is against the username policy to use the name of any organization, website, or product as a username. If you wish, you can format your username as "Username of NeighborhoodPals" or something similar. However, you seem to greatly misunderstand the purpose of Wikipedia. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and not a forum to merely tell people about something or spread the word about something. As an encyclopedia, Wikipedia is only interested in summarizing what independent reliable sources state about article subjects that meet Wikipedia's special definition of notability; Wikipedia has no interest in what a subject wants to say about itself, or in helping enhance your Google search results. If you want to participate in working on this encyclopedia, you will need to request a new username per the instructions in your notice(again, you don't need to use your real name). If you have any other questions about using Wikipedia, you may ask at the Teahouse; there is also a new user tutorial. 331dot (talk) 16:29, 24 May 2019 (UTC)

I would further add that changes to Wikipedia are done by consensus; almost any change must be debated and agreed to by the community as a whole. Also understand that people from all over the world use Wikipedia, and internet access quality varies around the world. 331dot (talk) 16:36, 24 May 2019 (UTC)

What do you intend to edit about, since you won't be allowed to edit about your series? 331dot (talk) 10:46, 26 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Since the blocking administrator gave the user name issue as the only reason for the block, renaming your account will deal with that, and the account can then be unblocked. Unfortunately, though, there is already an account called JacobAaron, and the system won't allow another user name so similar, to prevent impersonation, so you will have to choose another name. I know this must be frustrating, having one user name after another rejected, and I hope the matter can be dealt with as soon as possible. JamesBWatson (talk) 20:22, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
