Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Tasmanianeditor", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because possibly a little too generic. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username by completing this form, or you may simply create a new account for editing. ''There are editors in Tasmania who feel the same, the problem with this user name is that it assumes there are no others? There a quite a few who edit about Tasmanian subjects''  JarrahTree 10:59, 10 March 2019 (UTC)


 * ignoring the message and carrying on with editing simply as if the message is not here - that's up to you. JarrahTree 11:30, 10 March 2019 (UTC)

Hey sorry, I'm new at this. I'll follow the link and change :) Thanks for understanding. tasmanianeditor

I've submitted a username change, thank you for your help. tasmanianeditor 11:57, 10 March 2019 (UTC)

No need to apologise - there is nothing in there really when you start as a new editor to explain the issue of usernames - it is a fraught issue. There might be some other advice down the line, but the best is to understand very clearly about wikipedia - I might add the full welcome in a moment, it will come out of order...

Also, if you get a seasoned editor reviewing your draft = in some cases in the politics area - candidates in themselves (unless there is substantive other items that makes the person WP:N notable) - might decline the draft on that basis... have a careful read of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Common_outcomes#Politicians   JarrahTree 12:13, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
