Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Clown Tiddies", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it could be offensive to female editors. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 09:11, 16 December 2019 (UTC)

Hi, in order for me to explain why it does not violate a policy I think you would need to explain how it does violate one or how it would be offensive.

I see nothing offensive about my username. Clown Tiddies (talk) 22:21, 27 December 2019 (UTC)

Here ya go. Urban Dictionary Elizium23 (talk) 22:27, 27 December 2019 (UTC)

I know what the word means. I still don't see how the word is offensive. Clown Tiddies (talk) 20:36, 5 January 2020 (UTC)

The fact that you don't see it as offensive doesn't mean others wouldn't find it offensive. Wikipedia is a collaborative environment, and this username is not conducive to such an environment just as a name referencing the male anatomy would not be. Are you declining to change your username? 331dot (talk) 21:30, 5 January 2020 (UTC)

Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia with this username. This is because your username, Clown Tiddies, does not meet our username policy.

Your username is the only reason for this block. You are welcome to choose a new username (see below) and continue editing.

A username should not be promotional, appear to represent a "real-world" group or organization, misleading, offensive or disruptive. Also, usernames may not end in the word "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account. However, you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87".

You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines and create the account yourself. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:

1. Adding {{unblock-un|your new username here}} below. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "Email this user" on their talk page.
2. At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
3. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Wikipedia:Changing username.

If you think that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding {{unblock|Your reason here}} below this notice, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. 331dot (talk) 19:42, 22 May 2020 (UTC)
