User talk:UTRS

December 2018
Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia with this username. This is because your username, UTRS, 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 below. 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 "Email 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 think that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 11:24, 30 December 2018 (UTC)


 * I was going to decline this unblock request, but Favonian beat me to it and with a more straight-forward decision than mine (so I'm glad that he beat me to it). The following text was what I was going to add to the decline: "Unfortunately, I cannot accept your username change request. It is not in compliance with Wikipedia's username policy because (like your current username) it can mislead other editors into believing that you have certain permissions and access rights that you don't. Please review the policy page I linked you to, and feel free to file a new unblock request with a username that is appropriate and complies with policy. I appreciate your patience and your understanding. Thank you :-)"  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   11:32, 30 December 2018 (UTC)


 * I'll just add that my username soft block was a provisional action, and that I fully endorse Favonian's escalation to a hard block with talk page access revoked - we're clearly being trolled here. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 11:53, 30 December 2018 (UTC)
