User talk:Uchepapa

December 2023
Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Wigwe University", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it appears to be the name of an organisation. 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 the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you.

 Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because your account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. Also, your username gives the impression that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

If you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization, you may request unblock and a username change. In your reasons, you must: To do this, post the text  at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked.
 * Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the paid-contribution disclosure requirement; and
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked; and
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked; and
 * Provide a new username.

Please note that the new username you choose cannot already be taken and in use by another account. You can go here to search and see if the username you'd like to choose is available. If the search returns that no global account with that username exists, that means it is available to be taken.

Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text  at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your reason here" with the reasons you believe the block was an error, and publish the page. 331dot (talk) 12:06, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

 * The intentions for creating this page weren't to promote my organization, Wigwe University but to have Wigwe University on Wikipedia.
 * I am an editor and content manager for my organization, and that is the reason for creating this page. Please note that there is no compensation or paid contribution for any editing i have done on Wikipedia.
 * I now understand the Wikipedia promotional policy and will stand by it. My contribution to Wikipedia will be to edit and make other articles readable once I am unblocked.
 * This is not a personal account, but it was created for a school. We don't intend to change the username. My organisation still wants to keep Wigwe University as a username. Wigwe University (talk) 13:47, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

 * There's no way to help you while you continue to demonstrate an unwillingness to abide by WP:USERNAME and a fundamental misunderstanding of WP:UPE. You will not be unblocked to do what you ask. --Yamla (talk) 15:56, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
 * So you are a "editor and content manager for my organization" for free? They don't pay you to perform that job? You may have confused creating an article with creating an account. Your account username needs to represent you personally, not your organization or job. 331dot (talk) 16:03, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

To be clear, if you are paid by the university in any capacity, you are a paid editor, you do not need to be specifically paid to make edits. 331dot (talk) 20:17, 13 December 2023 (UTC)


 * I am a communication staff member at the university. Wigwe University (talk) 11:41, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Do you now understand that, despite your claims above, you are a paid editor (WP:PAID)? What do you plan to write about instead if unblocked? --Yamla (talk) 11:42, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes, I do understand now that I am a paid editor. I want to write about Wigwe University when I am unblocked. Wigwe University (talk) 11:47, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
 * That's not going to happen. --Yamla (talk) 12:20, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
 * please, Why? Is there still something I am doing wrong that needs to change? Let me know so that I can correct it. I want to get it right. You can also help suggest a topic for me. Wigwe University (talk) 12:32, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
 * This whole process has been like pulling teeth. You've worked really hard to ignore everything told to you (see WP:IDHT). Articles are expected to be written by people without conflicts of interest. Frankly, at this point, I don't see you being unblocked to write about anything else, either. --Yamla (talk) 12:53, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
 * I get your point. Thank you. I will like to make a request. I want to get this account archived so the username doesn't affect anyone or the organization in the future. Wigwe University (talk) 13:16, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Right now there's no need to worry about that; perhaps if you make a successful unblock request we can deal with that. 331dot (talk) 13:50, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
 * I'll note this university isn't even open yet, and won't be for months and months and months. Much, much WP:TOOSOON for anyone to be writing about it. --Yamla (talk) 13:06, 14 December 2023 (UTC)

globally renamed Wigwe University to Uchepapa
It is done. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 12:13, 6 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Thank you Uchepapa (talk) 10:54, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Ok to unblock? -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 22:45, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I think it's worth a shot. 331dot (talk) 23:56, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Should I make an unblocking request? Uchepapa (talk) 08:02, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
 * You have one open. If Deepfriedokra is unable to remove it soon, I will- I can't at present due to other committments. 331dot (talk) 08:03, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
 * will circle back -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 11:30, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
