[edit] Problem with your user name
Hi: Please consider changing your user name in some way. See Wikipedia:Username, especially: Inappropriate usernames: "Inappropriate usernames include both clear and masked names. Fairly or unfairly, the line between acceptable and unacceptable user names is drawn by those who find the username inappropriate, not by the creator of the name. Please don't try and find this line. Wikipedia does not allow certain types of usernames, including the following: Confusing, misleading, or troublesome usernames: Inflammatory usernames: Wikipedia does not allow potentially inflammatory or offensive user names. Inflammatory usernames are needlessly discouraging to other contributors, and disrupt and distract from our task of creating an encyclopedia. This includes, but is not limited to: Names of religious figures such as "God," "Jehovah," "Buddha," or "Allah", which may offend other people's beliefs. Names that promote a controversial point of views", and more. Thus you can see that the general Wikipedia guidelines advise against choosing user names that are "offensive, confusing, or unreadable text or characters names of celebrities, notable world figures or events, or known Wikipedians". You may notice that thus far, over the years, others have avoided or been persuaded not to choose the name "Jewish" as it may cause confusion or offense. Please see Wikipedia:Changing username. Thank you. IZAK 08:43, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
