[edit]

Your account has been blocked indefinitely because the chosen username is a clear violation of our username policy – it is obviously profane, threatens, attacks or impersonates another person, or suggests that you do not intend to contribute positively to the encyclopedia (see our blocking and username policies for more information).

We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia, but users are not allowed to edit with inappropriate usernames and we do not tolerate 'bad faith' editing such as trolling or other disruptive behavior. If you think there are good reasons why these don't describe your account, or why you should be unblocked, you are welcome to appeal this block – read our guide to appealing blocks to understand more about unblock requests, and then add the text {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the end of your user talk page.

  • Any admin is free to lift this without talking to me on the condition of a rename and an adequate explanation of why they created this account and tried to create another similar account according to CheckUser (note, this is not a CheckUser block, but a username block.) CheckUser does not identify any other blocked account, so I think its impersonation more than anything, but the username needs to go and we need to have an on-wiki conversation about the clear intent to troll.

Requested username:

Request reason:

I was doing an impression of Willy on Wheels after having one beer too many, I have since sobered up and apologise for my behaviour. I will not do any trolling should you unblock me. Willy in a Truck (talk) 20:40, 18 November 2018 (UTC)

Decline reason:

This is not a sufficient explanation. What on earth would make you choose a username similar to a long-term vandal? No amount of alcohol would justify that. Yamla (talk) 21:34, 18 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Requested username:

Request reason:

I choose a username similar to Willy on Wheels for a laugh and to see what would happen if I did. Willy in a Truck (talk) 10:05, 19 November 2018 (UTC)

Decline reason:

And now you've found out. I'm not certain any username choice with Willy in it would be acceptable- maybe- though I am also curious how you came to know of the long-term vandal's name in order to create one similar to it. Even with an acceptable username choice, I'm very concerned that you aren't able to control yourself after having too much alcohol, and if that's the case, you need to remain blocked to protect Wikipedia. I must decline your request. 331dot (talk) 10:12, 19 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Requested username:

Request reason:

I happened to have stumbled upon him in the list of banned users, I'll make sure to avoid any editing under the influence from now on. Willy in a Truck (talk) 5:36 am, Today (UTC−5)

Decline reason:

I don't believe that explanation for a second. GABgab 19:17, 19 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@TonyBallioni:, check your inbox. @Dlohcierekim and Just Chilling: I would confirm this account to Kiko4564 which has an open UTRS request. I have seen the CU data but will wait to see if Tony agrees.

I've also seen the CU data and agree with Berean Hunter that this is confirmed. TonyBallioni (talk) 20:57, 5 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
