[edit] My concern about your username

Hello, Littlebum2002, and welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope not to seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but I noticed your username, and am concerned that it might not meet Wikipedia's username policy. After you look over that policy, could we discuss that concern here?

I'd appreciate learning your own views, for instance your reasons for wanting this particular name, and what alternative username you might accept that avoids raising this concern.

You have several options freely available to you:

Let me reassure you that my writing here means I don't think your username is grossly, blatantly, or obviously inappropriate; such names get reported straight to Wikipedia:Usernames for administrator attention or blocked on sight. This is more a case where opinions might differ, and it would be good to reach some consensus — either here or at Wikipedia:Requests for comment/User names. So I look forward to a friendly discussion, and to enjoying your continued participation on Wikipedia. Thank you. The Sunshine Man 17:34, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

The only reason I use this username is because I use it everywhere else, and I got it from the fact that my last name is Bumgarner, so my father is "bigbum" and I am "littlebum". I would not mind changing it, however, but what exactly do you find wrong with it? littlebum2002 17:45, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Because it could be seen as offensive or inflammatory, have a quick look at the username policy and see what you think afterwards. The Sunshine Man 17:52, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Is it because of the word "bum"? I am sorry, I'm from America, so I thought nothing of it. However, I can see how it would be offensive to someone across the pond. I'm not too fond of it anyway, I'll change it.

[edit] Duplicate images uploaded

Thanks for uploading Image:Ul red.jpg. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:Ul logo red.jpg. The copy called Image:Ul logo red.jpg has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.

This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone, and you do not need to respond. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and refer to 'my contributions' to remind yourself exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads. For tips on good file naming, see Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions about this notice, or feel that the deletion is inappropriate, please contact User:Staecker, who operates the robot account. Staeckerbot 18:02, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
