User talk:Sherwood-Nightshade

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi,

If you've got the time, I'd appreciate it if you'd drop by the Devil May Cry 2 article and help out. I'm in the process of trying to turn the article into something which is at least comparable to the other two Devil May Cry articles. Lankybugger 18:28, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] SM3 talk page comment

No, not anger at all. Ace Class Shadow has a history of great edits and fairly lousy edit summaries, in terms of being kind. He and I as well as a number of other regular editors of future comics themed films have a good working relationship. My comment was in jest, to him, as two other editors have attested. Ace as well is aware it's humor. Hope you keep stopping by the page to help out. ThuranX 22:33, 31 December 2006 (UTC)


[edit] My concern about your username (Shut The Eff Up)

Hello, Shut The Eff Up, and thank you for contributing 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?

This user name seems to be overly inflammatory and contradictory to Wikipedia's civility standards. Although a specific inappropriate user name criteria on WP:U couldn't be picked out that would directly disallow the use of this name, the user name serves only to discourage others from engaging in discussion; a key element in contributing to Wikipedia.

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:

  • If you can relieve my concern through discussing it here, I can stop worrying about it.
  • If the two of us can't agree here, we can ask for help through Wikipedia's dispute resolution process, such as asking for a "third opinion", or requesting comments from other Wikipedians. Admins usually abide by agreements reached through this process.
  • If you decide to just go ahead and change your username, it is possible for you to keep your present contributions history under the new username: simply request a new name here following the guidelines on that page, rather than creating a whole new account.

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:Administrator_intervention_against_vandalism (WP:AIV), 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 WP:RFC/NAME. So I look forward to a friendly discussion, and to enjoying your continued participation on Wikipedia. Thank you again! -- Nick—Contact/Contribs 01:02, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

I have now listed your name over on WP:RFCN in order to obtain community opinion and consensus. Please see the discussion there if you wish to make a comment. --Nick—Contact/Contribs 02:26, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
An admin has blocked your username as an obvious violation of the username policy. If you would like to change your username to one which is more appropriate, you may do so rather than just creating a new account in order to keep your contributions. First, you should request that your block be lifted. For instructions on how to do so, please see this page. Make it clear in your unblock reason that you intend to change your username. Once the block is lifted, you should go to WP:CHU and read the instructions given for changing your username. If you have any questions, you can email me (you can't leave a message on my talk page while you're blocked). Click the "contact" link in my signature to do so. --Nick—Contact/Contribs 02:57, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Block block block block...

{{unblock|I'll change my name already (jeez)}}

Okay, I'm unblocking you so you can go to WP:CHU to get your name changed. Sorry for the trouble. Fut.Perf. ☼ 23:45, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding the Devil May Cry 2 article...

I don't know if you've seen it lately, but you may wish to head over and take a peek. There've been a couple changes made. Cheers, Lankybugger ○ speak ○ see ○ 18:37, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
