User talk:RyanFilms

OK, I am quite new to Wikipedia. My name is Ryan Sims, which could get confused with the football player with the same name. Nor am I www.ryansims.com or any other Ryan Sims listed in the first 50 entries if you search google for Ryan Sims.

I use RyanFilms as my username for most accounts, and people know me by it.

I have a very weak connection to Julianna. She worked on the short film "a Fix" that I am mostly a DP an editor on. The links that I originally updated were dead and no longer valid. I'll try to keep any updates to JRM page at a minimum. RyanFilms (talk) 05:39, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope not to seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but I noticed your username, and I am concerned that it might not meet Wikipedia's username policy for the following reason: Promotional usernames are disallowed.. After you look over that policy, could we discuss that concern here?

I'd appreciate learning your own views, for instance your reasons for wanting this particular name, and what alternative username you might accept that avoids raising this concern.

You have several options freely available to you:
 * If you can relieve my concern through discussing it here, I can stop worrying about it.
 * If the two of us can't agree here, we can ask for help through Wikipedia's dispute resolution process, such as requesting comments from other Wikipedians. Wikipedia administrators usually abide by agreements reached through this process.
 * You can keep your contributions history under a new username. Visit Changing username and follow the guidelines there.
