User talk:RogueWriter

June 2011

This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because your username, Upstartadmin, 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).

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. 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 {{unblock-un|your new username here}} 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 Wikipedia:Changing username.

If you feel that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|Your reason here}}, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. v/r - T P 01:48, 25 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, was sick and completely forgot. Will change as soon as approved. Upstartadmin (talk) 15:16, 28 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

To avoid the whole unblock/reblock thing again, I've filed a request on your behalf, and asked the bureaucrat handling the request to unblock you once your account has been renamed. Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 16:01, 28 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I'm new and I wasn't clear on how to change my username. Been reading the help/info pages. I just logged in with the new username, so it seems like everything is complete now? If there's another step I need to take, and someone could please advise me, that would be great. RogueWriter (talk) 20:13, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You're all set. FYI you can blank or archive all or part of this page at your convenience. –xeno^talk 20:15, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
