Hello, Evilpope2001, and welcome 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?

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. Wikipedia administrators usually abide by agreements reached through this process.
• You can keep your contributions history under a new username. Visit Wikipedia:Changing username and follow the guidelines there.

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:Usernames for administrator attention 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 Wikipedia:Requests for comment/User names. So I look forward to a friendly discussion, and to enjoying your continued participation on Wikipedia. Thank you.

I have never received a complaint about my username. If someone has a legitimate complaint about my username i will consider changing it. I have been using evilpope2001 as a username since 2001 and have never received a complaint. The impression i get from the lack of complaints that the general populous does not find it offensive. If you have any evidence to prove otherwise please let me know. Also the game is a legitimate article about an actual game that alot of people play.

Thanks for the reply. There has been no followup til now because this account has not been editing; that is described in the links above so as to prevent someone who took break from coming back with their name messed up. (It wouldn't have been considered polite)

That said, I can't and won't speak for the general populous; my notification is my action alone. Do you have a link to info about the game? I can't find anything about it, other than a few others with similar names on various online forums. Baccyak4H (Yak!) 18:06, 10 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure what that means, but it sounds good. Back to my question. Do you, or Evilpope2001 (I guess though you just forgot to sign in), have a link to info about the game? One to wikipedia article about it would be great; my searches though cannot find anything. Baccyak4H (Yak!) 03:59, 11 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
