This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because your username, Sloughetonse, does not meet our username policy. '''Your username is the only reason for this block. You are welcome to choose a new username (see below) and continue editing.''' A username should not be promotional, related to a "real-world" group or organization, misleading, offensive or disruptive. Also, usernames may not end in the word "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account. You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines and create the account yourself. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:
 * Adding on your user talk page. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "E-mail this user" on their talk page.
 * At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
 * 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. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Changing username.

If you feel that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. Yunshui 雲 &zwj; 水  08:28, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

This is my error, and I apologise; I should have refused this account application in the first place. Since the username clearly represents Slough and Eton School, it cannot be used here. I missed this connection when I originally created the account for you. Please select a different username by following the instructions in the block template above, but note additionally that you cannot use an account to represent the school itself under any username - accounts are for individuals only, not for groups or organisations. I apologise for the inconvenience caused by my oversight. Yunshui 雲 &zwj; 水  08:32, 2 April 2014 (UTC)
