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. Additionally, If you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for your contributions to Wikipedia, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

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. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 15:33, 24 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
 
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

Oi, Im not a group, im just one person, Im Jacob Aaron which i wanted to create a page for my series Neighborhood Pals, i didn't want to use my real name due to harassment, BLOCKING me was uncalled for, i know your 'RULES' are different but i assure you im just one person. And this website has been actually so difficult to use, the way it looks feels like Windows XP, you really need to fix up your website, and the help on this needs to be more clear its really difficult to understand, plus now ive been blocked for having a username which i didn't want my real name (Jacob Aaron) to be in, IM NOT creating a new account, you need to fix this, i do NOTT want to change my username as i think its just fine, but you can change it to something else, I choose this name so my series could be written up on Google and spotted straight away, this really angers me for you to block me. IF you want me to change my username thats fine, but then how is my viewers going to see my series? explain that.

Decline reason:

Your username implies multiple people have access to this account. I understand that's not the case, but you still need to pick a new username. Note that you will not be permitted to promote your Youtube series in any case, though. See WP:COI and WP:PROMO to understand why. If this is your only intention here, there's no point requesting a new username. Yamla (talk) 16:27, 24 May 2019 (UTC)Reply


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

(edit conflict) You don't need to use your real name, in fact, there are good reasons not to, but it is against the username policy to use the name of any organization, website, or product as a username. If you wish, you can format your username as "Username of NeighborhoodPals" or something similar. However, you seem to greatly misunderstand the purpose of Wikipedia. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and not a forum to merely tell people about something or spread the word about something. As an encyclopedia, Wikipedia is only interested in summarizing what independent reliable sources state about article subjects that meet Wikipedia's special definition of notability; Wikipedia has no interest in what a subject wants to say about itself, or in helping enhance your Google search results. If you want to participate in working on this encyclopedia, you will need to request a new username per the instructions in your notice(again, you don't need to use your real name). If you have any other questions about using Wikipedia, you may ask at the Teahouse; there is also a new user tutorial. 331dot (talk) 16:29, 24 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

I would further add that changes to Wikipedia are done by consensus; almost any change must be debated and agreed to by the community as a whole. Also understand that people from all over the world use Wikipedia, and internet access quality varies around the world. 331dot (talk) 16:36, 24 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

This has been done under section U5 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to consist of writings, information, discussions, and/or activities not closely related to Wikipedia's goals. Please note that Wikipedia is not a free web hosting service. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay.

Decline reason:

You can't change your username yourself, you must either make a request on this page(as you did already) or just create a new account(though if you want to preserve your edit history, you will need to do the former). Your proposed username here is too similar to existing usernames, as noted by JamesBWatson, so you will need to choose something else. 331dot (talk) 12:08, 18 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

What do you intend to edit about, since you won't be allowed to edit about your series? 331dot (talk) 10:46, 26 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

  • Since the blocking administrator gave the user name issue as the only reason for the block, renaming your account will deal with that, and the account can then be unblocked. Unfortunately, though, there is already an account called JacobAaron, and the system won't allow another user name so similar, to prevent impersonation, so you will have to choose another name. I know this must be frustrating, having one user name after another rejected, and I hope the matter can be dealt with as soon as possible. JamesBWatson (talk) 20:22, 4 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
