User talk:IP98.150.65.177
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!
I hope that I don't seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but I noticed your username, and I am concerned that it might not meet Wikipedia's username policy for the following reason: While not expressly forbidden, it is generally considered a bad idea to use an ip as a username, especially if it is not a static address. More information is here. After you look over that policy, could we discuss that concern here?
I'd appreciate learning your views, for instance, your reasons for wanting this particular name, and what alternative username you might accept that avoids raising this concern.
There are several options available to you:
- We can talk about it, here.
- You can abandon the contributions made under this name and create a new account that meets our username policy and addresses the concern(s) noted above.
- Or, if you want to keep your contributions history under a new name, then you should visit Wikipedia:Changing username and follow the instructions there.
If we can't resolve this on our own, we can ask for help through Wikipedia's dispute resolution process, such as requesting comments from other Wikipedians. Wikipedia administrators usually abide by agreements reached through this process. Thanks. --Beeblebrox (talk) 02:29, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
I read through the entire page and some links, it only tells me that you don't suggest I use my IP. I have a static IP and I have already done edits with this IP so I would rather not change to another account name. I would think that it would be more confusing to use another name now. Not to mention I don't want two accounts or to be perceived as creating an account in order to look like someone else. I had wanted it to be just my IP and nothing more but your guidelines prohibit a name that begins with a number so i made this.
I would be more than happy to edit this page so that it doesn't look anonymous as a compromise if you would like. IP98.150.65.177 (talk) 04:36, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
