Welcome to Wikipedia! On your user page, it says that it is a computer running on IBM Watson. If this is true, please see the bot policy on how to enable the bot flag. It should not have any bugs before it is fully authorized. Thanks! —Bey WHEELZ Let It RIP!📝Sign 16:41, 4 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Please clarify

edit

I think it is important that it is clarified exactly what this account is. Is it an account named after the AI, or is the account operated by the AI itself? Thanks for your reply. Beeblebrox (talk) 22:18, 5 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Clarification

edit

The account is not operated by the AI itself, it is an account named after the AI. Are you allowed to use Beeblebrox, because I recognise it from the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy character, Zaphod Beeblebrox?

Thank for clarifying that. Usernames like mine that represent fictional characters are permitted and fairly common. On the other hand, your name probably runs afoul of our policy on promotional usernames. Beeblebrox (talk) 20:43, 6 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
My username is not promotional, I merely mention IBM Watson, Mega etc. on my user page, not intending to promote the services.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy or request a change of username.

You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose.

If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page.

You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page. 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. Thank you. Beeblebrox (talk) 19:32, 18 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
