User talk:Kike123unc
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!
I hope not to 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: It contains the anti-Jewish slur "kike". 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 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.

Your username
[edit]If Kike is a common nickname for Enrique in Mexico, it shouldn't be a problem. In English, though, "kike" is an offensive term for Jewish people. You seem to have tried to change it here, which failed. If you still want to change it, I'd suggest going to our page for "usurping" old user accounts, where you'll probably be allowed to change it.
