[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Marketsusa", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it may imply that the account is shared. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you.

I will keep the username, thanks.

If you ask me to change my username again, I will report you to Wikipedia. My account is great.

There is nothing to report; other users are allowed to make good faith inquiries about you and your username. If your username is that of an organization or product(like a magazine), you will need to change it to something more individualistic at Special:GlobalRenameRequest as the username policy does not permit organization/product names. 331dot (talk) 08:07, 28 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, I'm Zerbu. An edit that you recently made to First Battle of Dernancourt seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want to practice editing, please use the sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! Zerbu Talk 08:11, 28 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

When I signed up for Wikipedia the system automatically allowed me to register with my username. I am right now talking to administration about your impoliteness towards new users. My username is protected under free information policy under Wikipedia terms of use. Marketsusa (talk) 08:11, 28 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The system will allow users to register curse words as a username, that does not mean it is acceptable. There is no "administration" to talk to, just us Wikipedia editors. There is no "free information policy", but there is a username policy. 331dot (talk) 08:13, 28 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I will contact Jimmy Wales and his team if u change my username Marketsusa (talk) 08:16, 28 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Mr. Wales does not get involved in this sort of matter. Can I assume from your resistance to this inquiry that your username is that of an organization or product? 331dot (talk) 08:20, 28 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There are millions of users on Wikipedia that have usernames inconsistent with the username policy and at 2:30 AM in the morning I am being targeted for this username. At least I didn’t make an inappropriate username. My username was simply made off random words in my mind. I cannot proceed in changing it because I’m not going to be using the account significantly. If u change it go ahead but this was a very unwelcome to a new user Marketsusa (talk) 08:24, 28 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Other users having inappropriate usernames does not mean that you can too. We are all volunteers here and can only address what is reported. If you are aware of inappropriate usernames, feel free to report them to WP:UAA. No one has said that your username will be changed against your will, you have simply been politely asked about it and no one is trying to be unwelcoming. It was a simple question that only asked for a simple answer. You edited about a supermarket in the United States and your username is "Marketsusa" which sounds like a trade publication or organization. If it isn't, all you need to do is say so. That's all. 331dot (talk) 08:29, 28 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The account is shared through low-level officials at a company. I did not know Wikipedia did not allow this. I will politely sign off the account and not re-log Marketsusa (talk) 08:34, 28 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

However I deserve to know if my account has been reported. Marketsusa (talk) 08:40, 28 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There has been no report that I am aware of. Is this account associated with Smith's? 331dot (talk) 08:47, 28 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It is not just a group of people that study commerce/e-commerce Marketsusa (talk) 00:37, 29 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
