Username
[edit]
Hello, JamesAndHenry8. Concerns have been raised that your username may be incompatible with policy. You can contribute to the discussion about it at the page for requests for comment on usernames. Alternatively, if you agree that your username may be problematic and are willing to change it, it is possible for you to keep your present contributions history under a new name. Simply request a new name at Wikipedia:Changing username following the guidelines on that page, rather than creating a whole new account. Thank you. Euryalus (talk) 04:01, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
- Specifically, your username suggests this account is being used by two people (James, and Henry). If this is a correct interpretation of the choice of name then unfortunately it breaches the username policy linked in this template and you will need to choose a new username.
- Please note this is not a reflection of your edits or a restriction on editing: once a new username is chosen you're welcome to return to regular editing.
- Also, if the username is not intended to suggest two people are using this account then please do make that point here on this talkpage. -- Euryalus (talk) 04:01, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
- It should also be mentioned that sharing an account is prohibited. Every edit made by an account must be attributable to the same single individual who created it. Evidence of shared use can result in the account being blocked. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 17:55, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
- This account isn't being shared by two people. I hadn't even considered that the username could imply that. The username is referencing my two favorite characters from Thomas & Friends, James and Henry. JamesAndHenry8 (talk) 18:53, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
- No problems. Thanks for the reply, and please consider this issue
Done. I've also added a template below which includes some useful links for getting started with editing. Welcome to Wikipedia. :) -- Euryalus (talk) 21:33, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
