Request reason:

I have been blocked from editing wikipedia pages from editing the 2022 Australian federal Election page seats of the Coalition to 75 due to former Liberal MP Craig Kelly leaving the party, and the WA Liberal seat of Stirling being abolished. And due to editing the seat count of the ALP to 69 after the AEC creating a new seat of Hawke which is notionally Labor.

Accept reason:

globally renamed Thepollie2101 to Capetheshill Per user request. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 14:06, 19 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

November 2021[edit]

Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia because your username, Thepolliloser, does not meet our username policy. Your username is the principal reason for the block. You are welcome to continue editing after you have selected a new username that meets the username policy guidelines, which are summarized below.

Per the username policy, a username should represent an individual and should not: represent a group or organization; be promotional; be misleading (such as indicating possession of special user rights or being a "Bot" account (unless approved for such purposes)); be offensive or otherwise disruptive. However, a username that contains the name of a organization and also identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87" is allowed, though, among others, the guidance on conflict of interest and the policy of paid-contribution disclosure are relevant.

You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our username policy guidelines and create the account yourself. Alternatively, if you wish for your existing contributions to carry over under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:

Adding {{unblock-un|your new username here}} below. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "Email this user" from their talk page.
At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a change of name request.
Your requested new username cannot already be in use. Therefore, please check the list here to see if a name is taken prior to requesting a change of name.

Appeals: If, after reading the guide to appealing blocks you believe you were blocked in error, then you may appeal this block by adding {{unblock|Your reason here}} below this notice.

This is either impersonation or sockpuppetry. In either case, it is unacceptable. Cullen328 (talk) 06:23, 27 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
