my concern about your username itstarotcakebitches hello and thank you for contributing to wikipedia i hope not to seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome but i noticed your username and am concerned that it might not meet wikipedia's username policy after you look over that policy could we discuss that concern here your username contains the insulting term 'bitches' which may offend other users i'd appreciate learning your own views for instance your reasons for wanting this particular name and what alternative username you might accept that avoids raising this concern you have several options freely available to you if you can relieve my concern through discussing it here i can stop worrying about it if the two of us can't agree here we can ask for help through wikipedia's dispute resolution process such as asking for a third opinion or requesting comments from other wikipedians admins usually abide by agreements reached through this process if you decide to just go ahead and change your username it is possible for you to keep your present contributions history under the new username simply request a new name here following the guidelines on that page rather than creating a whole new account let me reassure you that my writing here means i don't think your username is grossly blatantly or obviously inappropriate such names get reported straight to wikipedia administrator intervention against vandalism wp aiv or blocked on sight this is more a case where opinions might differ and it would be good to reach some consensus either here or at wp rfc name so i look forward to a friendly discussion and to enjoying your continued participation on wikipedia thank you again
