[edit] RFC Regarding your username

I'm going to file an RFC regarding your username, since I believe it to be confusingly similar to that of our boss, Jimbo_Wales (talk · contribs). Editor88 16:21, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

I do not believe there is a rule on Wikipedia that the name Jimbo can be used exclusively only by Mr. Wales. --Ezeu 23:42, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
Hey, there -- I saw you left another editor a message asking about ways to change your username, but I don't see if they got back to you. If you'd like, you can file a request at WP:CHU. You don't have to, of course; they did file that RfC (specifically, a username RfC), but as you can see here, consensus was to allow it. On the other hand, you'll probably catch some flack for that, over time; provided you're willing to put up with that and that you don't go for any impersonations, I think you're fine. :) Sorry for the intrusion, and happy editing.
