[edit] RFC discussion of your username (UsernameDiscussion)

Hello, UsernameDiscussion, and thank you for contributing to Wikipedia! Wikipedia has a policy on what usernames editors can use. Unfortunately, concerns have been raised that your username may be incompatible with that policy. You can contribute to the discussion about it here. Alternatively, if you agree that your username may be problematic and are willing to change it, it is possible for you to keep your present contributions history under a new name. Simply request a new name here following the guidelines on that page, rather than creating a whole new account. Thank you. -- ~~~~

Template usage notes
  • This template is to notify a user of a WP:RFC/NAME discussion opened on his or her username. (Please use {{subst:UsernameNotice}} to notify anyone else about this RFC.)
  • Feel free to write your own message from scratch, or paraphrase this template in your own personal style. This template is not compulsory, it exists for anyone whom it may help to save time and effort in typing or in finding the links.
  • Please refer to the index of user warning templates before using any template on user talk pages to warn a user. Applying the best template available for your purpose may help reduce confusion from the message you are sending.
  • This template takes an optional parameter: one or more sentences of additional comment, e.g. explaining the objections to this username. If provided, this comment will be inserted following the words "your username may be incompatible wuth this policy."
  • Please remember to substitute the template—use {{subst:UsernameDiscussion|additional comment}} rather than {{UsernameDiscussion|additional comment}}.
  • This template inserts your signature by default (as you would put ~~~~ inside the box). To prevent it from doing so, set the (optional) parameter sig to n: {{subst:UsernameDiscussion|additional comment|sig=n}}.
